About Bell MX-9 MIPS Seven Checkmate Helmet-L

Bell MX-9 MIPS Seven Checkmate Matte Black Motocross HelmetDont let the graphic design fool you as the MX-9 now includes MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection Systems). Brand new from the ground up, the Bell MX-9 is a Moto-9 inspired entry level moto lid. Trading composite materials for proven polycarbonate, the MX-9 still features an aggressive looking shell that is both light and strong. Just like Bells flagship helmets, the effective Velocity Flow Vent system is used and nice little details like an EPS lined chinbar and a removable channeled liner are also featured. The price point isnt going to do anyone harm either and lets you get race capable performance at a very attractive cost.MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) is now offered on most of Bells helmets. The system is designed to dramatically improve rotational impact energy displacement to reduce rotational forces that can result from certain impacts, a leading slip-pane technology that is now becoming an industry standard.These Rotational forces can cause serious levels of strain on the brain and cause severe brain injuries to the riders. This highly innovative technological advancement in Bell Helmets uses a slip-plane system that moves the inside of the helmet (mimics the brains own protection system). The rotation of the helmet is intended to slow and reduce the amount of energy that is transferred to the head of the rider resulting in a reduction of strain and reducing the risk of serious injuries to motocross riders.
