BELLRogue Half Helmet

Very nice and well made helmet , and I do like the look of it but there was two issues I did have with this product thou . The first one was a bit uncomfortable sharp edge on the inner "protection shell" (don't know how to describe it in a better way) on the forehead/temple area which I got rid of by giving those areas a firm massage by using my thumbs .The second issue are those short adjustment strips for the face mask that comes along with the helmet . The are a bit too short in my case , and I guess I'm not the only one having that problem , when using the "inner protection mask" . My suggestion is to advice buyers outside the US to order those two longer adjustment straps at the same time they are buying that helmet or , adding those few extra bucks , sell the helmet straight away adding those two longer adjustment straps . The reason why is to avoid what happened to me when I had to order those straps afterwards and had to find out that the handling/shipping plus toll/taxes did cost about six times more than the product itself .Annoying , because I really needed those longer straps o be able to use that helmet together with that face mask full out .Beside that , I really like that helmet a lot . . Be well guys and greetings from Sweden . . . :o) .

I had been looking for a new helmet to wear during a hot humid summer. I had a full face that was working, but as the days became more humid there just was not enough air in there to make the ride enjoyable. So the search began. I looked all over the place. I was not a huge fan of the 3/4 open face helmets and the true 1/2 helmets seem to be pulled back by the wind and apply pressure on my throat.The moment I spied this helmet I was in. Hook, line, and sinker I had to have it. There was too many pro's on why I should have it. I haven't seen anyone else with it which was a huge plus. The real deal was that it combines a lot of awesome things from so many helmets. The protection level of a 1/2 , the comfort of a 3/4, and it's own type of style.The front piece coming on and off was awesome. I read in some reviews that people have to take it entirely off to put the helmet on and take it off. In my case, this is not true. I just undo one side and it comes on and off with ease. The looks I get riding around the city are awesome. This one of a kind helmet flows so well with my Breakout. People cant help but stop and stare.All in all I am very very happy with this helmet. The sizing was true. I used a fabric measuring tape and got my size then ordered based off the chart. I have Prime so it came very quickly. I ripped it out of the box and had to immediately go for a ride. I noticed when I put it on the first time the front side on top was a little abrasive. Right where the removable liner and the actual helmet meet it is rough, but I pulled the liner down just a little bit further and that fixed that issue. The air flow through the helmet was good. Very little drag on the head. Now all I need to do is get some speakers to put in there and get lost and find my soul.

The muzzle was so uncomfortable and flimsy and hard to get on, and it felt like plastic digging into the bridge of my nose. I thought by the price of it that it'd be a lot better quality. The 3/4ths helmet portion was fine quality and comfortable enough, but I bought it because I thought it looked cool with the muzzle. I realized immediately that I'd never be able to ride it with the muzzle on, so returned. The price is way too high for what was essentially going to only be a 3/4ths helmet for me.

I have had this helmet for a week and I am on the fence. The helmet itself is very comfortable. It was much bigger than expected. While it is a half helmet, the additional padding does make it feel more secure and I am going to make a wild a$$ guess that the build is slightly more protective than a standard half helmet. It also does not feel like it is lifting off my head at speed. All win.That said, the muzzle... Despite all my efforts, I cannot get it to adjust so it is comfortable. It is unwearable with the inner protector. With the protector out, I can adjust it so it is not laying on my nose, but even then, the amount of adjustment is not enough to actually fit in front of my face in a comfortable fashion. This may be due to needing the longer adjustment straps (which, for $250, really should be included in the purchase) but the tilt angle is not adjustable enough to get the muzzle set where I need it for my face type.I am going to try and get the longer straps and see if it helps.Bottom line- $250 gets you a very comfortable hybrid helmet which sits between 1/2 and 3/4. It's comfortable. It's also bigger than a usual 1/2 helmet and is definitely mushroom shaped, but not the worst I have seen. The muzzle, for me (with a XL size head) is highly disappointing. So, it probably is not worth $250, but it is a solid, well made helmet.
