Bell MX-9 Adventure Hi Viz MIPS Review

If you are looking for a Hi-Viz helmet, the Bell MX-9 is the one to get. Its bright color will alert any rider on the road that you are headed their way.  The helmet is definitely more visible at night and during inclement weather than a traditional dark colored helmet.

The ventilation system is designed to keep you cool and comfortable. It is great for riding in the summer because of the large airflow. There are multiple vents to help cycle air throughout the helmet. However, during winter time it can be a little cold to wear this helmet.

The inner lining is moisture wicking to help keep you dry. It also removable so you can throw in with your wash.

The noise level in the helmet while riding is moderate. Unless you are super sensitive to noise, you will find it to be very tolerable.

The cheek pads are soft and comfortable and the visor is easy to remove if you prefer to wear goggles. Removing the visor altogether improves aerodynamics while traveling at high speeds. Note that you do not need tools to remove the face shield.While wearing the helmet, it remains in a good neutral position and provides a wide field of view.

It weighs around 3.5 pounds so you don’t have to worry about your neck becoming fatigued during long distance rides. It a perfect helmet for both men and women.

The Bell MX-9 Adventure is DOT and ECE 22.05 certified. It is an extremely safe helmet to wear that does a great job of absorbing impact.

For a dual sports helmet, the Bell MX-9 Adventure is a pretty decent investment. It’s fitted for both on-road and off-road adventures. It remains a very affordable price even though it has some high-quality features. Don’t forget about the 5-year warranty you receive when you purchase.
