Like all Bell Pro Star Helmets, this helmet comes with a flex impact liner that is comprised of three layers. Each layer takes care of a different force and speed in order to lessen the effects of impact on your head. The layers line an already strong light shell made of an ultra-thin carbon fiber weave called Textreme. This carbon fiber is also found on high performance racing boats and f1 cars in order to cut weight by 20%. Although the weight is cut by such a substantial amount, the strength and rigidity is not compromised. At one of the lightest weights in the motorcycle helmet world, it is also one of the strongest. The Bell Pro Star Ratchet Helmet contains an inordinate amount of technologies to raise the safety and performance level to sky-high levels.

Not only can they quickly be removed for cleanliness, they can also be removed at a moment’s notice in the event of an emergency. The Bell Pro Star Ratchet helmet is lightly lined with a Jade Power mesh liner from Virus, that will keep bacteria build-up at a minimum.

 Purpose-Built Performance - Introducing the All-New 2016 Star Series

Game Changed. Again

Since its introduction back in 1967, the Bell Star has long represented the standard in head protection. Revered as the first full-face helmet on the market, the Bell Star inspired an industry to pursue the science of head protection. That obsession with helmet innovation continues today. The new Bell Star is more than an evolution of its predecessor. It's a complete rethinking of what a race helmet should be, driven by the essential needs of the modern racer.

Reinvented Field of View - The 2016 Star offers an entirely new viewport creating better vertical and lateral field of view and even greater head-check visibility.

Field Tested and Developed - Working with professional riders on the track is the best way to understand the challenge and generate solutions quickly.

Optimized Aerodynamics - Using our state-of-the-art wind tunnel, we fine-tuned the Star's aerodynamics with advanced riding simulations.

More Sizes, More Performance - Offering 6 EPS and 5 shell sizes allows a more proportional fit and improved performance fit and improved performance, especially at high-speeds.

Broaden Your Horizon

Panovision Viewport Increases Field of View

No matter what or how you ride, one factor remains constant: the need for maximum visibility. Whether racing or going on a simple ride in the mountains, the ability to make safe headchecks and see obstacles clearly is critical. The Panovision viewport in the 2016 Star offers riders additional vertical and lateral visibility over the previous Star and more traditional viewports. This allows the rider to see better in a tight or tucked position and make safer lane changes and head-checks.

Purpose Built: Raceview vs Streetview

The 2016 Star features two unique profile shapes for two distinctly different types of riding. The Raceview profile used on the Pro Star and Race Star uses an orientation specifically optimized for a tucked, more compact position. Conversely, the Streeview profile used for the Star is designed for a more upright, sport or touring position.

The Lightest, Most Advanced Race Helmet on the market, packed with cutting edge technology to earn the spot on thepodium.

Flex Impact Liner - A first-of-its kind, three-layer impact liner designed to manage energy from three potential impact scenarios: low, mid and high-speed.

TeXtreme® Carbon Shell - Using TeXteme® ultra-thin carbon fibre weave, we engineered one of our lightest and strongest shells ever.

Virus® CoolJade Power Mesh Liner - Designed to withstand with rigors of hard use in extreme conditions, the Virus liner allows athletes to stay cool, keep comfortable and beat the funk.

Magnesium Magnetic Cheekpads - Allows for easy removal of the pads for washing and enables emergency responders to easily remove the cheekpads first before removing the helmet following an impact.

TeXtreme® Carbon Fibre

Introducing the Next Generation of Shell Innovation

This ultralight and incredibly strong carbon fibre technology is currently used in today's most advanced Formula 1 cars and racing boats and now, in the 2016 Pro Star. It's 20% lighter than conventional carbon fibre and reduces weight without sacrificing strength or stiffness.

TeXtreme®'s Patented Formula

·        Straighter fibers with reduced crimp optimize and strengthen the composite.

·        The Spread tow structure makes it possible to achieve thinner laminates.

·        Lower crimp reduces the amount of excess plastic, thereby minimizing weight.

Flex Impact Liner

The Progressive Protection of the Flex Impact Liner

The 2016 Pro Star and Race Star feature our revolutionary Flex impact liner. Designed to manage energy from impacts big and small, the Flex liner uses 3 unique materials at different densities to manage low, mid and high energy impacts. Using expanded polyolefin (EPO), a soft and flexible low-density polymer for low-speed impacts, with EPP and EPS layers for mid to high-speed impacts, we have a progressive impact liner that works incredibly well to manage impacts across the spectrum of crash types.
