Great helmet, protected my head.Jun 26, 2007
By A. Plasman I had a Vela helmet and got in an accident--flipped over my handlebars, tumbled onto my head and somersaulted onto the pavement. My head was fine! I got a big bruise on my side where my handlbars jabbed into me, but despite witness reports of scraping my head against the asphalt, I had only a minor bump on my head. The helmet...is cracked like an egg, but my noggin is fine. Which is why I'm ordering a new one.
This helmet fits comfortably, I like the little adjustable dial on the back that secures the helmet to my head--it's easy to open and close but stays fitted so that my helmet can be secure on my head every time I ride without a lot of fumbling. Also, my head stays much cooler than with other helmets I've used (although, it's a helmet, so it's still hot).
My only complaint is that they no longer come in the pretty pink color I had (2005 helmet color). The magenta is...not my cup of tea, so this time I ordered the blue. I wish Bell would bring back the light pink!

Totally Comfortable & Not Bad Looking Either!May 03, 2011
By Jami I had been riding for a couple of years with a "universal" fit helmet (not gender specific) that was always slipping around and really uncomfortable - not to mention made my smaller than average head look like it had a giant mushroom sitting on top of it. This helmet fits great! Comfortably snug but not too tight and easily adjustable. I have a 22" head (55 1/2 cm) and love the fit and look of this helmet. I had purchased the Bellisima Chloe helmet in the store for about $10 less than the Vela but the Vela offers more (and better) color choices so I returned the one to the store and ordered this one online instead. It was not on sale at the time I purchased so I'm sad to see it is now available for $19.99. Still, I'm happy with my purchase at $35 and would highly recommend it at full price.

Nice item! Great price!May 05, 2008
By J. Smallenberger I had never wore a helmet when ridign before but know it is a necessity with our 10 month old in tow. The helmet fits wonderfully and can be easily adjusted for smaller and larger heads, and when riding keeps your head very cool.Chin strap is not to uncomfortable either.
Do I have a big head?Dec 20, 2011
By Kelly B. Mottershead
"I <3 Packages"
Feels very small and the straps come together at an angel the rubs your cheeks wrong. I loved the simple black this came in, but I'm going to have to actually go shopping before I buy another helmet.
