Product Description

Throwbacks and retro lids are nice, but nothing beats an original. Back in 1954 Bell founder Roy Richter formed his first helmet out of fiberglass and named it the "500." That moment was ground zero for the modern motorsport helmet and it gave rise to an entire industry. Bell's new Custom 500 pays homage to Richter's original design and adds modern protective technology to bring the design up to date while still keeping the original's aesthetic. By combining a custom fiberglass layup with a specially designed EPS foam layer, Bell engineers were able to craft a helmet that is at once light weight, narrow in profile, and DOT compliant. Adding custom paint inspired graphics, chrome trim work (on some graphics) and a quilted liner, the new Custom 500 custom looks as good as it performs.

great little helmet
By Jose Bassist
compared to my hjc helmet, this weights so much less and is'nt as huge. it feels comfortable and fits pretty much like my old one. i'm so glad i bought it. snaps works great with my bubble shield, looks like a great old school helmet...and you don't look like a bobble head.
