Product Description
"Drag" is the technical term for friction built as an object moves through air. Drag can be reduced by smooth and aerodynamic lines and the Bell Slant bicycle helmet, as you might guess, is built with a slanting shape that helps reduce drag. In addition to this technical prowess, the Slant has been given a Blade Visor and Fusion In-Mold Microshell. But most importantly, the Slant will protect your head and stop your brains from pouring out which would be, of course, a drag.

Bell Slant Bicycle Helmet
The Slant from Bell is versatile, stylish, and affordable bike helmet designed for recreational riders. Offering many of the same features as Bell's top of the line helmets, the Slant is a solid choice for committed riders who don't want to break the bank.
To begin, the Slant features Bell's In-Mold Microshell that bonds the shell to the EPS foam for a sturdier build. This allows Bell to maximize ventilation. With 21 channeled vents, the helmet is designed to keep cool air flowing in and warm air flowing out as you ride. Built for a custom fit, the Slant has Bell's one-handed, ErgoDial fit system and easy-to-adjust Cam-lock strap levers for a perfect strap fit around the ears and under the chin. A Blade Visor to keep the sun out of your face is the final touch on this well-designed helmet.
TECHNOLOGIES
BLADE VISOR: Bell’s Blade visor mixes dramatic looks with functionality. Horizontal I-beam pins keep the visor in place with minimal intrusion on the helmet surface.
CAM-LOCK LEVERS: Bell’s Cam-Lock strap levers make it easy to adjust the straps around your ears. Simply open the cam, position the strap comfortably and close the lever.
CHANNELED VENTILATION: Specially designed ventilation channels on the interior of the helmet's liner bring cool air in through the front, pass it over the head and flush warm air out of the rear ports. These deeply sculpted channels are designed to keep air moving whether you're bombing it at 30 mph, or huffing it uphill at single digit speed.
ERGODIAL: The ErgoDial Fit System brings one-handed adjustments to Bell's Universal Fit helmets. A simple press of the button and slide of the dial brings firm, snug and comfy stability to your helmet.
FUSION IN-MOLD MICROSHELL: In-molding is the process of bonding the helmet’s Microshell to its EPS foam layer to provide a sturdier, more solid helmet. The EPS foam is shot into the thin Microshell cap when it’s in the mold--rather than formed separately and taped on later. This process was pioneered by Bell and is now the industry standard for all high-end helmets.

Returning to bike riding after ten years a new bike helmet was in order. After reading reviews in various places the Bell Slant was my choice. Ease of adjustment for a good fit and reasonable appearance were important considerations. The helmet has met both needs. Therefore I have been wearing it on my weekend rides. It is comfortable, secure and does not require constant adjustment as did helmets of years ago. For the price it even looks fine.
