Bell Variant Bicycle Helmet
The Bell Variant mountain bike helmet is very similar to its big brother, the top-of-the-line Bell Sequence. The major difference between the two helmets is in their respective vent designs. The Bell Variant cycling helmet has 24 vents to the Sequence’s 21. The Bell Variant helmet vents, however, are slightly narrower. Hence, why Bell can design in three more. Arguably, it’s six in one, half dozen in the other. We can debate airflow design all day long. We can’t debate the amazing price.
The Bell Variant bicycle helmet offers:
- Bell’s Fusion In-Mold Microshell helmet technology
- Bell’s TAG Fit system that allows you to adjust your fit both horizontally and vertically
- Internal reinforcement so the Sequence can be low profile
- 24 vents for excellent cooling
- Channeled Ventilation designed into the interior of the in-mold to promote airflow
- Bell’s Cam Lock Levers for perfect adjustment of the helmet strap in front and back of your ears
- Removable VPV (Variable Position Visor) that allows 15º adjustment up and down
- Removable Velcro padding in key spots for comfort
- Appealing graphics
- Lightweight – 305 grams
- CSPC and CE EN1078 approved for use in all cycle sports
The Bell Variant is a very high quality open-face mountain bike helmet at a reasonable price. The Variant’s in-mold microshell is certified to the highest cycling standards, its TAG fit system allows you to adjust the helmet up and down, not just horizontally around your temples. Its venting is comprehensive and its weight is light. For the trail or the road, the Bell Variant is an appealing choice.
