Product Showcase: Bell’s 2012 Off-Road Moto-9 Helmets

When riders Malcolm Stewart, P.J. Larsen and Matt Moss (pictured left) of the JDR/J-Star/KTM Racing Team line up for the 2012 season, they'll be wearing Bell's top-of-the-line Moto-9 helmet.

The Moto-9 features Bell's new magnetic cheekpad system, the Magnefusion Emergency Release System (MERS), which allows for easy helmet removal in emergency situations. Used in conjunction with the Eject Helmet Removal System, MERS allows first responders to gently remove the helmet from a rider's head, reducing the potential for secondary neck or spine injuries. The Moto-9 is DOT and Snell M2010 certified and comes in a variety of styles.

The patented Magnefusion strap keeper replaces the often hard-to-locate strap snap with an elegant magnetic solution that easily engages and secures the strap end. The Moto-9 comes with an integrated, removable roost guard, a five-year warranty and a deluxe padded helmet bag.
