Anyone using a Bell super and also has a separate road helmet.
What make fits your bell head?
Yep, I've got a Bell Super and I have a Specialized Echelon too, that's a roadie helmet I think (no peak, lots of vents, anyway). Both nice and comfy on my bonce.
Bell.
Is this a trick question?
What he ^^ said.
Do all bell helmet fit the same then?
Never touched a roadie helmet let alone tried one on.
I've got a Bell Super in XL swod size, and am currently sporting a Giro Xen for road related activities, so watching with interest....... Especially after realising that wearing such a helmet gets you totally ignored by roadies AND that trying to view the world from under a peak whilst riding road ****s up your neck, shoulders and back,
Do all bell helmet fit the same then?
In my experience, yes. Been on Bell for both for over 10 years now, currently a sweep for road and super for MTB. Nothing else fits as good.
I also have a Bell Super (and a Bell Stoker) and a Bell Sweep road lid.
I always used to be a Giro head. Funnily enough they are now the same company, and some of the road lids look suspiciously similar.

They're not the same shape though, in my experience. Bell fit me nicely, but when I had a Giro Hex it gave me headaches and dents in my forehead. 🙁
interesting as the Hex and Zen are about the only Giro lids that didn't fit me (similar thing, pressure points on 'corners' of my forehead). Before buying my current Bells I'd been riding exclusively Giro for 15+ years, I then tried the Hex and Zen on, and bought a Super (and a 17 quid Halfords Stoker as a spare).

kask protone is a similar shape to bell, i have had bell ghisallo and another one (cant remember name) that had a removable peak for road/mtb they are a better shape for me than giro lids being narrower.
