Uninspired innovation: the Zephyr MIPS® helmet from Bell
From lung-busting cross rounds to long days filled with steep climbs, the Zephyr fits and feels so comfortable you’ll forget it’s even there. That’s what it’s all about. The most innovative road helmet Bell has ever developed is the result of years of research, analysis and road testing.

Float Fit Race
The new Bell Float Fit Race™ is designed for a tailor-made fit with maximum performance. The fitting system is seamlessly connected to MIPS and offers maximum adjustment possibilities in height, padding width and circumference.
MIPS®
MIPS® is a glide plane system within the helmet designed to slow or reduce the amount of energy transmitted to or from the head. A helmet equipped with MIPS® consists of 3 essential components: the helmet inner shell, a glide plane system and a suspension system made of elastomers. During impact, the inner shell of the helmet dissipates most of the energy. The elastomer-based suspension system allows the sliding plane system to move. Elongation of the elastomers leads to a rotation of the sliding plane system that is independent of the inner shell, and completely encases the head. Although only a few millimetres, this movement can reduce the amount of energy acting on the brain.
Progressive Layering
The dual density foam construction with softer material near the head helps to better distribute the impact forces and at the same time allows designers to create more and larger vents.
No-Twist Tri-Glides
It all about the details. The strap system is easy to adjust, keeps the straps flat and prevents them from twisting – which also helps to take a few watts off the wind.
In-Mold
EPS foam is injected into the thin microshell while it is still in the mould, instead of forming it and gluing it on separately. This process was first introduced by Bell and is now the standard for all demanding helmets.
X-Static® Padding
X-Static® pads are woven with silver fibres. Quick-drying and antimicrobial, they have an anti-odour effect. In addition, the X-Static® pads give the rider a cooling feeling in hot weather and a warming feeling in cold weather thanks to their thermal properties.
