Product Information

Full details

The Bell Super DH Mips is a highly versatile, full-face helmet designed for serious mountain bikers who transition between aggressive downhill riding and endurance trail adventures. Its standout feature is the tool-free, ASTM 1952-certified removable chin bar, which allows riders to switch between open-face trail performance and full-face downhill protection instantly. While this modularity offers unmatched utility, users should note that the added structural components make it slightly heavier than a dedicated, non-convertible lightweight trail helmet.

Does this helmet include MIPS?

Can I wear glasses with this helmet?

How do I clean the pads?

The X-Static padding is removable and can be washed using mild soap or by following the care instructions on the label.

Is the visor adjustable?

What is the Fidlock buckle?

Troubleshooting

Chin bar is difficult to lock in place

Check the locking mechanism for dirt or trail debris. Clean with a soft brush and ensure the guide tracks are clear before snapping the bar into the helmet shell.

Helmet feels loose even when dial is tight

Ensure you are using the correct size for your head circumference (52-56cm for this model). Check that the internal padding is correctly seated and not compressed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design allows for both half-shell and full-face configurations
  • Certified for both downhill and BMX-level impacts
  • High-quality MIPS Spherical safety protection
  • Easy-to-use Fidlock magnetic buckle
  • Excellent ventilation for a full-face helmet

Cons

  • Heavier than traditional trail-only helmets
  • Modular mechanism requires occasional cleaning to stay grit-free
  • Can feel bulky for riders used to minimalist XC helmets

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a proper fit, start by loosening the rear dial of the Float Fit DH system before placing the helmet on your head. Once positioned, turn the dial until the helmet feels secure but comfortable, ensuring the chin bar is locked firmly into the shell if you are riding in full-face mode. For care, clean the shell with mild soap and water; avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the polycarbonate construction. The interior X-Static pads are removable and machine washable, which is recommended after heavy sweat sessions. Always store the helmet in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the foam liner.
