The Wild Card
The Bell XR Spherical breaks the industry mold of what's to be expected in a road helmet and the rider wearing it. Instead of achieving high performance solely on pavement, Bell has designed a deep coverage, multi-discipline helmet that performs and protects beyond the tarmac into the realms of gravel, fire roads and singletrack.
As the demands of riders increase, so does the need for all-day comfort and safety. The XR Spherical offers Spherical Technology powered by MIPS. This proprietary tech features a Ball-and-Socket design that helps redirect impact forces away from the brain, allowing the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash. Because of the channels inside the dual- density EPS shell, the XR Spherical achieves superior sweat management, ventilation, and weight reduction like never before — all without compromising energy management.
Your road conditions and tastes may change, but this helmet's performance won't. From road to dirt to everything in-between, the XR Spherical is your wild card — providing deep road coverage and Bell's most advanced protective technology for whatever adventure comes your way.

The XR is my daily commute commute helmet. It fits and feels great. Luckily I haven't had to test its crash capabilities. I have not used it on long rides so I cant say how it will feel if wearing 3-5 hours. For 60 min its great

MIPS without the horrible mips liner
3 of 3 customers found this review helpful.
I loved bell helmets before the mips revolution. Then everything came with a mips liner which most definitely changed the fit of a helmet. Well with this model the mips is built into the shell of the helmet so the fit is back to perfect.

Back wearing Bell and the fit is PERFECT.

Bell's new MIPS system is perfect, no longer is there the horrible fitting, uncomfortable, size changing old style MIPS plastic liner system. I have been a long time fan of the Bell fit, I switched to a certain big brand helmet / bike company but no longer support their business practices, tried Kask for a little while and the fit was close but not perfect....
