- Bell Super DH Convertible Helmet - Long-term Review
If you've been following me for a while now, you know that I crash A LOT! I've been using this DH rated helmet for about a year now and I can confidently say that this thing has saved my life a few times already.

What is your favorite enduro/DH helmet? What do you think about convertible helmets? Nay or yay?
Pro tip... Buckle the back first and then the side clips after. That's when it snaps in place in a more solid way and feels way more secure
agree this is one of the best helmets out there, I`m as well on the second pair, had a fair few scary crashes on a big jumps, one of them direct landing onto my head, would swap this helmet for anything else. Crash tested and it works.
Wow the magnetic buckle is hard?!... try d-ring with gloves. Traditional buckle is slower to attached and deattach compared to magnetic buckle
The sun visor is suppose to break off easy for crashes
The buckle isn't hard, just frustrating at times when in full face mode. I'm half shell, I do it with one hand.
Recently switched to an IXS trigger ff and love it. Super light. Great ventilation. Excellent fit system. Full dh rating.
I had a switchblade before and never really found the convertible aspect really all that useful.
Does it have a cinch in the back too? I’m looking to try a regular full face for bike park riding
@@TrailDad yes it does. It’s actually so comfortable I am wearing it more than my half shell because there is no real penalty and a lot of benefits. Mine is only about 650 grams.
@@SeanKWhite-lk5zf 650 grams!? Wow thats light!
@@TrailDad it’s an impressive bit of engineering. I was wearing my Switchblade on afield trip to Bachelor and tried one on in their pro shop and immediately knew I needed to upgrade. Comfy as a half shell and full dh rating. Beautiful fit and finish as well.
Cool clip mi amigo! Thanks for sharing! 👍🏽🤙🏽💯💯
Thanks. What helmets do you use / like
@@TrailDad I have a regular Cali helmet. Been thinking of getting a full face.. I did try one couldn’t got use to it. Maybe because it was tight and I was having a head ache. 😂😂. Definitely will think abou getting one the right size! Thanks mi amigo. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks for the review. Others have mentioned that the helmet is rather noisy. Did you notice anything of the kind?
Have mine for a year now, and I ride a lot! Never noticed the noise that people refer to 🤷🏾♂️
Watching bro Neil. Ganda ng fullface helmet mo na bell sulit na sulit.
thanks bro! pede all-around
Nice review, muntik nako mapabili!
Upgrade mo na ang Super 3R. mo lol
Nice helmet. Meron akong Super Air R, good for enduro (not dh certified), wala akong masabi.
My first helmer is super 3r. That’s the older model yata ng Super Air. Light and comfortable
Bro good review. Have you tried on super Air? I am considering super 3R, super Air or DH. Still not sure go for which one. 🤔 my head size is around 56-57cm.
I'd go for the DH for the protection if you're gonna do bike parks etc. It's certified for that 🙏🏽
Just an fyi helmets are a 1 crash helmet
💯👍 amazing 👐👏👐👏👐👏
What about Bell Super Air R? Do you think it can survive the same crash like you had before?
I measurred 58cm for my head and ordered a M helmet. I got it today and I got the feeling it will rip my ears of when I try to pull it on or off.
Also, when I got it on and open my mouth, my cheeks will be pushed between my teeths, so I think I will bite into my own cheeks badly on a crash event. I already put on the smaller pads that was in the package.
Is this normal with full face helmets or should I try size L instead?
Thanks for your help!
I think M is too small for you. When you put it on, it should not cause pain or pressure on the side of your head. Get a Large and you can use the dial to tighten it down. Try measuring your head again, but don't make it tight using a "relaxed" measurement.
@@TrailDad
Ah, maybe this is the problem. When I am meassuring I alwasy tighten it up. Good hint.
Also, I think my head is a little wider on the cheeks, maybe I should resell my e-bike and ride up the hill by myself 😀
@@TrailDad
The L size arrived. And yes, its much bigger. Now I can better make a difference. With the M size I wouldn't be able to even speak that much cause it pushed me cheek in between my teeths as so as I open my mouth. With the L size this isn't the case.
But yes, it's really bigger and I hope the helmet doesn't get bigger over time.
