      Comments about Bell Faction BMX Helmet:

      My head is difficult to fit for helmets - long and narrow - yet this feels good, and comes with three sets of different thickness foam pads, so I am good for any season also with a Buff (like a bandanna) underneath. I have worn helmets for skydiving, motorbiking, cycling - nearly forty years... this one is solid - can't think how it could really be any better.

        Comments about Bell Faction BMX Helmet:

        I have used this style helmet for about 4 years and I am very happy with it. It has a lot of space for decals so it is easily personalized. Recently I was looking for a helmet for my 5 year old grandson. He did not fit the child helmets but the medium Faction with pads worked perfectly. I like the look of this helmet and I can also use it when I rollerblade. Great product and very sturdy.

          Comments about Bell Faction BMX Helmet:

          My 3.5 year old has a big head (21.5"). I had trouble finding a quality, good fitting helmet. Bell has this helmet for kids - called the FRACTION. However, they only sell it in XS and S. The Small only went to 22" (no room for growth after this summer). I found this helmet, the FACTION, in a Medium (21.25" - 23"). Bell provides 2 sets of foam inserts for the helmet. When I added the 'larger' foam inserts - the helmet fit my son perfectly. A huge plus is that as he gets older - I can swap back in the 'thinner' foam inserts. I see him using this helmet for a number of summers. Great purchase.
