The NMR bumper on the lower edge of the helmet is also interesting: in the event of a fall, it should prevent the helmet from injuring the collarbone.

The large ventilation openings on the back of the head are supposed to create a kind of vacuum in the helmet with the airstream and cool it very effectively.

Very briefly the opinion prevails, a late April Fool’s joke Bell to have been lost. At the end of the detailed document on the new Moto 10, the Bells write about shock absorbers on the outer shell of the helmet, which are intended to prevent the collarbones from breaking in the event of a fall. There really is. Even the author was not aware of this problem when falling far off the road. Learned something again.

Spherical and Mips

The Mips system is already established. In order to keep the high rotational accelerations of the helmet away from the cervical spine when it hits or slips on the floor, the inner lining of the helmet is movably attached in the dome: the head can turn easily in the helmet and compensate for the hyperextension of the neck. The new spherical system picks up on this idea and expands it with an additional inner shell that can also rotate inside the helmet. Almost like a hemisphere in a half-shell.

Carbon bowl with super ventilation

As soon as the ground becomes gravelly, the sweat glands switch to flooding. It mostly feels like that. Bell has therefore segmented the carbon outer shell of the new Moto 10 with very large ventilation openings. Since the two inner shells of the spherical technology are also provided with air channels, the Moto 10, according to Bell, can quickly dissipate large amounts of heat and sweat. Bell speaks of a vacuum effect and calls it “Thermal Exchange Airflow System (T.E.A.S)”.

Cool gemstones

The inner lining is made with a heat-dissipating high-tech fabric from Virus. The fibers are treated with a material made from recycled jade stone. This mixture should dissipate the heat quickly and have a cooling effect of up to 10 degrees on the skin.

Colors, prices and availability

The new Bell Moto 10 is available now. Initially only in the limited edition limited to 1,000 pieces, in matt black with glossy black and silver accents. The scope of delivery at Bell also includes a stylish helmet bag for the Moto 10. The numbered limited edition also has an additional visor, a fine print with the history of the Bell Motos and a 3D metal sticker. According to which standard the helmet is homologated – whether 22.05 or 22.06 – is still unclear. Likewise the price for Germany. In the USA, Bell wants the limited edition helmet to be $ 849.95, or a good 700 euros.

Conclusion

A new cross super helmet from Bell appears to be the Moto 10. The consistent further development of the MIPS system to Spherical is particularly welcome. The first test will show whether the additional side dampers to protect the collarbone are a bit of marketing after all. The price of the helmet is very high in the USA, we are eagerly awaiting the price in euros.
