Protective half helmet BELL Giro Vasona MIPS — in-mold construction, visor

The BELL Giro Vasona MIPS is a half bicycle helmet designed for urban commuters and recreational riders. It features in-mold construction for a lightweight yet durable shell and an integrated visor to shield from sun and light precipitation. The helmet incorporates the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS) to help reduce rotational forces during certain impacts, and offers an adjustable fit system to achieve a secure and comfortable fit for everyday riding.

Advantages

The in-mold construction bonds the outer shell to the energy-absorbing foam for reduced weight and consistent impact performance. MIPS technology provides an additional layer aimed at redirecting rotational energy in angled impacts. The integrated visor offers practical eye protection while preserving the helmet’s compact profile. An adjustable Roc Loc® Sport-style fit system allows quick, incremental tuning for a personalized fit, while ventilation channels maintain airflow during short commutes and casual rides.

• City commuting and short urban rides

How to use

Place the helmet level on your head so the front edge sits just above your eyebrows and adjust the rear dial until the helmet feels snug but comfortable. Fasten and tighten the chin strap so it forms a V under each ear and allows one or two fingers between the strap and your chin. Ensure the integrated visor is unobstructed and that vents are not blocked by hats or hair. Inspect the helmet for visible damage before each ride and replace it after any significant impact according to manufacturer guidance.

Usage recommendations

Use the helmet for city and recreational rides where lightweight protection and sun shading are priorities. Clean the shell and straps with mild soap and water, avoid solvents, and store the helmet away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. Replace the helmet if it shows cracks, deep dents, or after a significant crash, and consult local safety standards for proper sizing and care.
