Bell Releases the Full-10 MIPS Full Face Helmet
Inspired by the Full-10 Spherical model, the Full-10 MIPS offers a composite shell and a selection of features aimed at the mid-price full coverage helmet market. This version excludes the Spherical technology, layered EPS, and carbon shell of its higher-end counterpart, making it more affordable.
Key Features and Differences
- The Full-10 MIPS is positioned one step below Bell’s flagship Full-10 Spherical.
- It replaces Spherical tech with MIPS C-Solution, a simpler version of the MIPS liner found in more budget-friendly helmets.
- The carbon shell is substituted for a composite shell, paired with a single-layer EPS liner.
- Weight is approximately 1000 grams for a medium/large size, maintaining similar heft to the Full-10 Spherical.
- The price is reduced by about £160, bringing a more accessible option to riders.
Design and Ventilation
The helmet retains the Flying Bridge visor, which is more flexible than standard peaks and is designed to direct airflow through the shell efficiently. Additionally, the Full-10 MIPS features Bell’s Thermal Exchange Airflow System.
"MIPS C-Solution is more akin to the MIPS liners seen on more affordable helmets, helping to move the asking price into more sensible realms."
"You get the same Flying Bridge visor that is more flexible than your usual peak and focuses on sending airflow through the shell."
"Speaking of airflow, the Full-10 MIPS features Bell’s Thermal Exchange Airflow System. This is exactly what you might expect it to be."
Summary
The Bell Full-10 MIPS offers many features of its flagship sibling but with streamlined materials and technology to provide a more budget-friendly option without sacrificing essential performance elements.
Author's note: The Full-10 MIPS balances performance and affordability by combining key ventilation features and safety technology in a cost-effective package.
