Bell SA2010 Helmets are here!

Wasn't really expecting back-to-back shipments from both of our most popular helmet manufacturers, but some models of the Bell SA2010 helmets just showed up in our warehouse.



Some interesting details we're just finding out:

When Bell says "Flat Black", they actually mean a Rubberized Flat Black, sort of like the extremely popular finish that HJC has been applying to their line of helmets.



And, we saw it listed in their preview catalog. And it was in their price-sheet. But we also thought that maybe it was some sort of typo. It wasn't. The Bell Sport and Mag Sport helmets are available in Orange:



We'll keep posting more helmet models as they come in. It's quickly becoming apparent to us how many changes the helmet manufacturers are making in their helmets with this Snell rating change.

Say Goodbye to Bell's Detend Shield!

 

Owners of older Bell helmets with the clunky detent style shields rejoice! Bell is introducing a Shield adapter that allows the use of the newer, SRV style shields with the older Detent style helmets. Installation is direct and does away with the often fragile older pivot kits that Bell used for so many years. Now you can get the same, smooth SRV performance on your older Bell helmet! (And we no longer need to stock 2 trillion different Bell Replacement Shields!!)

The retrofit kit will run $20-30, plus the cost of a replacement Bell SRV Shield. Look for it on our website early 2009!
