Bell Star Hess Carbon Fiber Helmet

[RidersDiscount]

We’ve yet to meet a performance bike enthusiast that didn’t dig carbon fiber. Here at the RidersDiscount.com fortress, we most definitely appreciate the light, strong material. We like it even more when it’s partially painted over like you see on various WSBK and MotoGP machines – and Bell Helmets decided to accentuate the Star Matte Black Carbon helmet’s good looks with a Derek Hess rendering over parts of its outer carbon fiber shell. Mr. Hess, based out of Cleveland, Ohio, is famous for his sketches that have graced album covers and even has a few works on permanent display in the Louvre as well as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His line-drawn style doesn’t completely cover the shell’s carbon fiber, but instead, enhances its looks so that anyone who looks closely will be able to see that thar’ is real carbon fiber!

The Bell Star Hess Carbon’s shape was part of an arduous R&D process to create a helmet that resisted buffeting and lift at speed, which can be seen through its angular appearance at the rear. Intake and exhaust vents are carefully placed for excellent ventilation capacity and the fully-removable interior liner’s anti-microbial treatment impart a high degree of comfort, no matter where or when you’re riding. A clear UV-resistant, anti-fog and anti-scratch faceshield is included as standard – just don’t forget to ask about a smoked or a Transitions SolFX visor when ordering!

The Bell Star Hess with a carbon fiber shell.


Everyone digs carbon fiber, and it’s especially cool when you throw in a graphic overlay that doesn’t completely hide it!




Each helmet comes with a padded carrying case which includes a separate compartment for a spare visor and other pockets for earplugs &etc.


Speaking of visors, ask about a Bell Transitions SolFX visor. This one unit automatically adjusts its tint from clear to dark when the sun is out. MSRP $119.95


For comparison’s sake, this is the Bell Star Matte Carbon helmet …
