Henrik Olsen Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Safety is important so I bought a new helmet a Bell Super 3R. This helmet provides a technology called MIPS that helps absorbs blows to your head :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olav Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Nice review of a versatile helmet. You can remove parts of the chinpads so that it doesn't squeeze as hard on your cheeks, unless you've already done so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab1 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Excellent choice! The Bell Super 3R is why I’m still walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, but in my experience it was borderline painfull, so I removed the smaller pad (of the two inside), and its much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eucinsea Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Nice review and scenery! Thank you for sharing. Want to share this to help consumers. MIPS,while sounds awesome, isn't as proven of a technology as they would like you to believe. I found this out when I was investigating if I should get it in my smith optics cycling helmet. Here is more info if anyone wants some light reading. https://helmets.org/mips.htm https://nsmb.com/articles/mips-equipped-helmet-really-necessary/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
