Flexible Flight. The new Bell Segment utilizes a series of interior EPS foam segments connected by a reinforcing skeleton, allowing the helmet to flex and conform to your head while still meeting safety standards--including the ASTM F2032 BMX enhancement.
Bell Segment, $79
STYLE MEETS TECH
The skate-style look never gets old. But that rigid bowl-style shell feel can be a drag. That’s where Segment shines. It has the classic shape of an old-school skate helmet, but its ingenious design gives it head-hugging flexibility. So it’s way more comfortable. How did we do it? A series of interior EPS foam segments are connected by a reinforcing skeleton—so it fits more like a comfortable cap than a helmet and still meets bike and skate safety standards. Pretty amazing, right?

Unlike conventional pudding-bowl helmets that are often compromised to fit average heads, the segmented liner allows flexibility to form to the wearer's head shape (and no two heads are identical, so this is a big benefit). The result is an well accomodated fit that feels like it was custom-formed to each individual who slips it on. Riders who are sensitive to the fit of the helmet that changes with their body temperature will find the segmented liner is what they have been looking for. The liner is flexible enough to respond to subtle changes in a rider’s actual head size.
Bell Segment Jr, $69
A SKATE-STYLE CLASSIC
Blending the style of a classic skate helmet with head-hugging comfort and advanced fit technologies, the new Segment Jr. gives action sport groms everything they need. The secret to its comfort is Bell FormFit, which makes the helmet fit more like a comfortable cap than a hard-shell helmet. The eight internal segments are connected by a reinforcing skeleton. Segment Jr. meets both skate and BMX safety standards, making it the perfect everyday helmet for active mini-shredders.
