Strengths: Excellent fit, great shape, secure, lightweight, inexpensive and ideal for medium to larger headsWeaknesses: Colors (other than black) reveal limited shell coverage, i.e. not as attractive as high-end alternatives. Typical for helmets in this price range.
Bottom Line: Bell's ErgoDial fit system is excellent. Coming from a 90's era Giro comprised of plastic shell, styrofoam base and simple foam pads, the adjustable locking system is a major upgrade. You can get the fit just right (snug but not uncomfortable) and never worry about shakes or shifts on bumpy trails.
I think it's a good-looking helmet, too. This bucket sits around your head--not on top--which precludes that "mushroom" look while offering better protection in the event of a spill. For someone with a good-sized melon (I wear a 7-3/8 cap), wearing a close-fitting lid also makes for a more flattering fit.
Don't let the price fool you. This is a quality, solid-performing helmet. Highly recommended

Strengths: Light and great ventilationWeaknesses: Strap design around the ear, kind of annoying to adjust
Once complete it fits great
Bottom Line: Great helmet that is very light and will get you thru the heat. There is minimal restrictions when wearing it and it fits quite securely.
I have not had to "use" is yet, but I know with the mfg Bell that I can rest assured of safety and performance
