    It looks like a modern interpretation of an old Arthur Fulmer AF50 design to me.Emulation over design I think.

    Much much better to be “cool” wearing this than a beanie…when style and safety combine, more people will benifit. Yeah; it looks retro; too…

    So…… you’re telling me you’re stoked? And you’re in Brooklyn? No. Way.

    Terence nailed it. Kudos to the kid, but Bell isn’t ‘Bell’ anymore and hasn’t been since before he was born. I say that with sadness in my heart. I loved all of my old Bells.

    That kids looks like a fine young man and I think he did a great job with the Helmet.

    I remember drooling over those Yamaha RD400’s when I was in high school.

    Hi, there is any connection between Bell helmets and Ruby Helmets? This model, is too close to Castell model from Les Ateliers Ruby.

    I am wrong?
