FAQs

What is the primary use case for the Bell Transfer helmet?

The Bell Transfer helmet is primarily designed for downhill mountain biking, bike park riding, and other aggressive trail riding disciplines where maximum protection is required.

How do I clean the helmet?

What is the weight of the helmet?

The Bell Transfer helmet weighs approximately 1040 grams.

Are the cheek pads replaceable?

Yes, the Quicksnap cheek pads are designed to be removable for easy cleaning and can be replaced if they become worn or damaged.

Does the visor adjust?

Yes, the helmet features a Flying Bridge Visor that can be adjusted to provide shade and protection from trail debris.

Is this helmet suitable for general trail riding?

While it offers excellent protection, its full-face design and weight make it best suited for more aggressive riding. For general trail riding, a lighter, open-face helmet might be preferred by some riders.

What material is the shell made of?

The helmet features a Polycarbonate Shell construction for durability and impact resistance.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If it's still not fitting well, consider if the cheek pads are properly installed or if an aftermarket liner/pad system is needed for a more customized fit.

Cheek pads are difficult to remove or reattach

Align the snaps carefully before applying pressure. If they seem stuck, check for any debris caught in the snaps or liner. Do not force them excessively.

Visor is loose or rattling

Check that the breakaway screws are properly seated. If they are damaged or loose, they may need to be replaced. Ensure the visor is correctly aligned with the helmet before tightening.

Helmet gets excessively hot inside

Utilize the Overbrow Ventilation system. Ensure no debris is blocking the vents. For very hot conditions, consider removing the helmet during prolonged breaks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Bell Transfer helmet is designed for immediate use. Ensure the helmet is the correct size for your head circumference. The chin strap should be snug but comfortable, and the Flying Bridge Visor can be adjusted by hand. The Quicksnap cheek pads can be removed by gently pulling them away from the helmet liner; they reattach by aligning the snaps and pressing firmly.

Compatibility: This helmet is designed for adult mountain biking, specifically suited for downhill, enduro, and bike park riding. It is compatible with most standard neck braces. Ensure a proper fit; the helmet should not move excessively side-to-side or front-to-back when the straps are fastened.

Care: Clean the helmet shell with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. The Quicksnap cheek pads can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and cool water. Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling or storing. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the helmet's materials. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
