Bell Faction Allan Cooke Multi-Sport Helmet Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this helmet online, because I was unable to find anything I liked in local sporting goods stores. I commute to work by bicycle, and this helmet offers good protection, and a comfortable fit. This is a multi-sport helmet as opposed to a standard bicycle helmet. With any helmet, you will get a case of "helmet hair", and this product is no exception, but that is the price you have to pay for safety. I like the style and green color of this helmet, even if I do feel a bit like an Israeli commando every time I put it on. If you spend any time on a bicycle, a good helmet is absolutely essential gear, and I recommend this helmet very highly.

Bell Faction Jamie Bestwick Multi-Sport Helmet Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I currently ride a brakeless BMX street bike and with the recent near fatal accidents of professional riders I decided to invest some money to protect my skull.

If you visit a skatepark (that requires & enforces safety gear rules) you'll notice a split between ProTec and Bell helmets. Unfortunately, the extra-squishy, super-comfortable foam inside the ProTec helmets are not CPSC certified and the common ones I see are skateboarding helments that are not built for cycling (they do not provide sufficient protection to the lower-rear of the helmet).

Ultimately I did not really care what the Bell Faction looked like as long as it provided the proper protection, but I am very pleased with the aesthetics and the 3 different sized pads included for a perfect fit and I appreciate how well it vents compared to my ProTec classic. I would definitely recommend this helmet to all my friends & fellow BMX riders looking to ride smart and stay safe.

If you're wondering which size to order, I found a Bell sizing chart online (Google) and used a string to measure the circumference of my skull and then measured the string with measuring tape.

Bern Nina Summer Youth Multi-Sport Helmet Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product appears to be good quality, until you try to change the attachment. It comes with two attachments, one for snow sport and one for biking. The snow sport attachment is fuzzy and warm, covers the entire ear. The biking attachment is simply soft padding between the head and the helmet.

The attachments are designed to snap onto the helmet via four snap buttons. These buttons need to snap into button holes drilled directly on the plastic helmet. The holes on the helmet seem to have irregular sizes. This means some of the buttons will fit into the holes too loosely and some of them are too tight. The holes that originally fit well turned loose after a few snapping action. I have recently purchased and returned two of these helmets that have exactly the same problem, which leads me to believe that the entire batch of helmets must have similar problems. Plus one of the snap button fell off from the snow attachment altogether when it was unsnapped from a very tight hole. They really should have grommets mounted on the plastic helmet for the buttons to snap into.

All in all, not usable. I gave it two star because besides the snap button issues, rest of the helmet appears to be good quality. My kid really like the style. If you can use the thing without ever having to change the attachment, it could be a good purchase. But then maybe you don't need to buy a multisport helmet in that case.
