Cool design 
2008-06-15
I bought two of these helmets after reading many reviews including safety. I really like the Citi design. The helmet feels light, and there is plenty of ventilation to keep your head cool. The straps are easy to adjust and don't get tangled. I would buy again.
Comfortable, all around helmet

This helmet is comfortable and I dont notice it while riding. It sits sort of high on my head. This is the first bicycle helmet I've purchased and I cant complain.
Great helmet! Took a while to get here!

The helmet is great, but I paid for expedited shipping and it took a week to get here!
smooth helmet

got this helmet because it has fewer holes than most others. needed it for rain/weather element protection not for cooling off in the winter... can be adjusted and I like the visor but isn't big enough for me. Rounder helmet style is less common than flashy aerodynamic speeder helmets.
Great helmet. Little pricy for its purpose though.

It does what it says it will do I guess. I haven't really "Tried it out" yet. But wearing it is not a pain. It is very comfortable and has really good air flow to my head to help keep me cool. I saw that this is the top rated bike helmet in consumer reports as well which is another plus. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Fit and comfort are right on. Couldn't be more satisfied as description detailed the product very accurate. Would buy again.
Nice Helmet

I don't know anything about bike helmets, but this was cheap, fits good, and I don't look stupid wearing it... fine by my book.
Citi helmet does the job well and doesn't look bad either...

The Bell Citi has not only passed all bike helmet impact tests with flying colors, but doesn't have the spine-like protrusions on the back which can snag on the pavement if you get hit and cause neck injury. The smooth, rounded, stylish back-end is an ideal shape for a bike helmet. It looks so retro-mod to me, like a 1960's Motorcycle or scooter helmet - stylized for bicycle riders.
I feel good and really quite slick in this helmet, also 14 large vents keep my head cool but don't compromise structural integrity like some more expensive bike helmets. More than 14 vents is probably superfluous to most people anyway. Unless your a cyclist that is a racer you don't need an aerodynamic helmet. The neligible difference it would make at normal speeds isn't worth the extra cash. The Bell Citi only gets four stars because the ear-straps are scratchy, a minor annoyance rather than a detractor. Buy the Citi, it is the best helmet I have owned thus far.
so far so good

I have only worn this helmet a few times, but it fits well and is pretty comfortable. It was a great bargain and I got the silver which looks great. It's definitely not a swoopy looking helmet, but I think all of them look goofy so I am not bothered by the way it looks. the only complaint is that when I try to pull the strap in the back down to make it more comfortable, I hit the adjusting wheel and have to tighten it again. However, I think that's because I'm still used to my old helmet that had a different mechanism in the back.
I love the Citi

This is the second Citi helmet I have owned. I still have the first one, but I bought two more so the whole family had nice, slim helmets.
This helmet has every feature you need, including a cool ratchet wheel adjuster in the back. My son is 9, and I have a big head, and the same helmet adjusts to fit us both.
Slim, low profile, clean lines, plenty of vents and optional add-ons (mirror, winter kit). Great design by Bell!
