FAQs
What is MIPS technology?
MIPS stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System, which is an internal layer designed to allow the helmet to slide relative to the head, reducing rotational motion transferred to the brain.
Can I replace the shield?
Yes, the Bell Lithium MIPS features a quick-release shield system designed for easy removal and replacement.
Is this helmet suitable for track use?
While the helmet is built with high-performance features, please check your local track requirements regarding specific safety certifications (e.g., Snell or ECE) before use.
How often should I replace the helmet?
It is recommended to replace any helmet every 3-5 years, or immediately if it has been involved in any significant impact.
Are the interior pads washable?
Yes, the interior liner is typically removable and washable; use a gentle detergent and air dry to maintain the integrity of the material.
Troubleshooting
Vent sliders feel stiff or stuck
Clear any debris or grit from the slider tracks using compressed air and apply a tiny amount of silicone lubricant if necessary.
Shield fogs up during cold weather
Ensure the vents are partially open to improve airflow and check that the shield is properly seated against the rubber seal.
Fit feels loose over time
Check that the interior pads are correctly snapped into place and consider if the cheek pads need cleaning or replacement due to compression.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum safety, always verify that the helmet fits snugly without pressure points. Adjust the internal strap system so the helmet remains stable during head movement. To maintain the shell, use a mild soap and a soft, damp cloth; avoid harsh solvents that could damage the polycarbonate finish. The shield should be cleaned with water or approved helmet-specific cleaners to preserve the optical coating. Inspect all four vents periodically to ensure they move freely and are clear of debris.
