Product Information
Full details
The Bell Lithium MIPS Full Face Helmet is designed for adult motorcycle riders who prioritize high-level safety and aerodynamics without compromising on aggressive aesthetic appeal. By combining a lightweight polycarbonate shell with industry-leading MIPS energy management technology, this helmet provides robust protection during impact. While it offers premium features like class 1 optics and customizable airflow, riders should note that the full-face profile requires precise sizing for the best fit, as the integrated features add a slight degree of bulk compared to open-face alternatives.

FAQs
What is MIPS technology?
MIPS stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System, an internal layer designed to reduce rotational forces on the brain during certain types of oblique impacts.
Are the internal pads removable?
Yes, the comfort liner and cheek pads are generally removable for cleaning; refer to the product manual for specific removal steps.
Can I replace the shield?
The Bell Lithium features a quick-release shield mechanism, making it simple to swap in different tints or replace a damaged shield.
Is the sun shield removable?
The integrated sun shield is a fixed internal component designed to be deployed and retracted, not removed for daily use.
How do I know if the helmet fits correctly?
The helmet should feel firm around the head without creating painful pressure points. When you shake your head, the helmet should move with your scalp rather than sliding independently.
Troubleshooting
Ventilation feels blocked
Check each of the four intake vents for exterior obstructions like road grime or insects and clear them carefully.
Sun shield is difficult to deploy
Check the activation slider on the side of the shell; ensure there is no grit in the track and operate it firmly.
Wind noise is excessive
Ensure all four air vents are fully closed and check that the face shield is seated securely against the helmet gasket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper performance, verify the helmet is snug around your cheeks and temple area without causing pressure points.
Maintenance Tips:
- Cleaning the Shell: Use mild soap and water with a soft microfiber cloth to avoid scratching the polycarbonate surface.
- Visor Care: Clean the class 1 optical shield with a specialized lens cleaner or mild soapy water; avoid abrasive paper towels that may introduce micro-scratches.
- Ventilation Maintenance: Occasionally check the four intake and exhaust vents for debris or dead insects to ensure the airflow mechanism remains unobstructed.
- Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the integrity of the EPS liner.
