> 24 hourThis helmet is exceptionally well made. The quality fit and finish is first rate. It’s a little heavy but I think that is a function of the quality. If your head shape fits a Shoei you’ll be comfortable in this. For the price this is a first rate helmet. I will be buying another one for my kid. He has a good helmet, this is better.

> 24 hourIt was time to replace my old helmet due to age. I swapped a street helmet for this one and I’m happy with the results. I would have liked the listing to include more prominence on the fact it lacks a shield

> 24 hourThe helmet was true to size , not very tight nor loose , with a lot of vents , if you are planning on using it on the highway I would recommend a face mask

> 24 hourFor the price, theres little (or nothing) better. I am always glad for the hi-vis (closer to lime green than yellow) colors and about colors, wish the black part was blue, or light blue. I dont know why theres so much black paint on all these helmets but I was opting for the white/blue torch model, but this yellow/black one is much more affordable and basically the same safety features. Recommend to visit any local shop to ensure fitment prior to purchasing things like this, but the Large is the same size here as with the torch model. first time riding and a dollar sized rock was flung up from my rear tire and landed on my (helmeted) head and am so glad to have it. Ive inspected it, and rubbed it but appears to be no damage, and even though it makes my hair look funny, Id rather have that then injury.

> 24 hourThe product page is titled Bell Unisex-Adult Off Road Helmet. The item in my Orders page is called Bell MX-9 MIPS Equipped Motorcycle Helmet (Solid Matte Black, Large). This is important, because the MX-9 MIPS and MX-9 Adventure MIPS are two different products. The description, on the color I ordered, says MX-9 Adventure MIPS. The price is right for the non-Adventure model. The key difference is that only the Adventure model has a shield. The product description claims Helmet ships with clear shild. NOT Tinted. What I received does NOT have a shield, nor does it have a shild. This matches the pictures, which do not show a shield. This is the base MX-9 MIPS with no shield and I dont think you can purchase a compatible shield. The overall product seems fine otherwise at a glance, but I wanted one with a shield for winter riding so Im going to have to return it. Getting a cold weather version of a Scorpion AT950 instead.

> 24 hourMy head circumference is 63cm as far as I can tell which is 7-7/8 to 8 hat size. I tried a 2XL helmet. I could get it on my head, but it was too small. The 3XL fits better. I use it for BMX. I was concerned that the mouth guard would block my view, but it doesnt. The visor is fine, but I have to tighten the plastic screws to hold it in place. The carrying bag is nice. I wear glasses, and I cant put the helmet on or off without removing my glasses. Also when the helmet is on, there is a little side pressure on the side pieces of the glasses. It hasnt caused any problems not did my glasses move out of place. The helmet doesnt feel too heavy. Its working out fine for BMX. My 2 youngest sons also have very large head circumference about 98-99 percentile. My 4 year old already measures for a medium adult size.

> 24 hourLove my mx9. Bit of a warmer helmet fyi. Bought the one on this listing for my wife it came without a lens. Double checked and the ad description explicitly says includes a lens. To be fair the photo shows it without a lens. But since I already bought one and it did come with a lens, plus the description, I figured it was a goof. Emailed bell no response ever. So after a couple weeks I requested a swap through Amazon. Replacement came, no lens. Time to return and go buy from Rocky Mtn instead

> 24 hourTitle says it all honestly. Use it on the MX track, if you have a Kawasaki like I do or just like green and monster this is the helmet for you.
