Beyond its iconic looks, the Custom 500 is engineered for a superior fit. To avoid the dreaded “bobblehead” effect common with other helmets, Bell utilizes 5 unique shell sizes, ensuring a low-profile, proportional fit that looks as good as it feels. This meticulous approach to sizing means the helmet sits closer to your head, enhancing both comfort and aesthetics. Inside, you´ll find a custom-quilted, anti-bacterial interior that provides plush, long-lasting comfort for all-day rides.
This helmet is the perfect accessory for the Adult rider who embraces the Cafe Racer / Custom culture. Its authentic design complements any vintage, bobber, or modern classic build. Versatility is key, and the integrated 5-snap pattern allows you to easily customize your helmet with a wide range of aftermarket shields and visors, adapting your look and protection to any riding condition. Security is paramount, which is why the padded chin strap is fastened with the industry-standard Double buckle or double D ring closure system, offering the most secure and reliable fit every time you ride.
