The Bell Super 3R MIPS Helmet is a convertible trail and enduro lid built for riders who want full-face protection when the terrain demands it and open-face versatility when it doesn't. The detachable chin bar is the defining feature here — snap it on for technical descents, pull it off for the climb or a mellow trail day. It sits in Bell's Super lineup as the full-face option, bridging the gap between a standard open-face trail helmet and a dedicated full-face downhill lid.
MIPS — Multi-directional Impact Protection System — adds a low-friction layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational forces transferred to the brain during certain impacts. Bell pairs this with their Float Fit system, a rear-adjustable dial that lets you dial in a secure, precise fit without fumbling mid-ride. The construction uses an in-mold polycarbonate shell with EPS foam liner, keeping weight in check for a helmet that covers this much of your head. Ventilation channels run through the shell to move air even when the chin bar is attached — a common weakness in convertible designs that Bell has clearly worked to address.
