Bell - Custom 500 Flake Helmet
Bell - Custom 500 Flake Helmet
The Bell Custom 500 is pure vintage attitude - no frills, no gimmicks, just classic style done right. Inspired by the original lid that started it all, this 3/4 helmet nails that retro look while packing modern comfort where it counts. The lightweight fiberglass shell keeps it solid but never heavy, and the quilted, contrast-stitched liner feels just as good as it looks. Slip it on, snap the padded chin strap, and you’re instantly transported back to the golden age of riding - only now, it’s safer and way more comfortable.
What really sets the Custom 500 apart is how natural it feels. The five different shell and EPS sizes give you that perfect low-profile fit - no mushroom head, no bulk. And with the integrated 5-snap setup, you can throw on a bubble shield, visor, or just let the wind hit your face. It’s simple, stylish, and real - the kind of helmet that feels as good on a café racer as it does on a cruiser. The Custom 500 isn’t trying to be anything new - it’s just doing what it’s always done: look cool, fit right, and never go out of style. The design emphasizes Overbrow ventilation, helping the helmet feel cool, quiet, and secure over longer rides.
Why We Like It:
The result is simple: you ride smoother. The fit stays locked in even through the rough stuff, breathes well, and takes the edge off chatter so you finish fresher. The visor and shell cut the wind without tug that wears your neck out across longer motos. Bell’s liner just settles; you put it on a...
Why It’ll Work for You:
This helmet solves the usual hang‑ups: a fit that dials quickly, cooling you can feel at lower speeds, and impact management tuned for both straight‑on and off‑angle hits. If you’re new to the category, think of it as a simple upgrade in safety and comfort - easy to clean, easy to maintain, and shaped to work with goggles or sunglasses without fuss. It’s a practical, high‑coverage option for daily riding and bigger weekends when pace and terrain change.
