Engineering & Technical Analysis

The Bell Custom 500 Solid Red features a fiberglass shell for durability and impact resistance, paired with an open-face design for ventilation and comfort. Its intermediate oval head shape ensures a secure fit, while the open design allows for airflow, though it lacks advanced safety features like MIPS or EPS foam layers. The helmet prioritizes classic styling and breathability over modern protective tech.
