Bell Custom 500 Carbon RSD Black Gold

Bell, the American brand synonymous with benchmarks for over 50 years, is reissuing its legendary open face helmet formerly known as the Bell 500 RT - in homage to the Indy 500 race - under the name of Custom 500 Carbon.

For fans of the 60s and 70s, and of Steve McQueen - who wore it and helped make it legendary - the Bell Custom 500 Carbon open face helmet has a taste of nostalgia.

With its classic vintage look and modern design, it features a carbon fiber shell for optimum weight reduction and shock absorption.

Bell has designed this helmet with no fewer than 5 different shell and EPS sizes, an incredible number for an open face helmet of this type, enabling it to offer a weight and volume perfectly proportional to the wearer's morphology, and limiting the well-known "bulb-head" effect of this type of helmet.

Highly engineered, the Bell Custom 500 Carbon is finished to the highest standards - with a suede interior trimmed in leather, a perfect fit for the wearer's head and, as in the old days, no screen, but you can buy a clear one or a smoked one with press studs, available from iCasque. You can also add a peak to your Custom 500 Carbon, available as an option on iCasque.

True to its glorious past, Bell is back in the spotlight with ECE 22.06-approved helmets that combine quality, innovation and performance, for motorcyclists and scooterists wishing to perpetuate the legend.
