Are Europeans that lazy that they can't be bothered to remove their glasses to get a moment to put on a full-face helmet? Is their require to smoke a cigarette so great that they should design a helmet to facilitate them performing so at every stoplight? Is Europe just a bunch of small nations filled with individuals who share a collective want to reenact the dark ages replete with suits of armor and helms?
Our Bell Revolver came to us in the Matte Black color which had a very good, smooth finish.
The overall shape of the bell revolver helmet fits in well with the rest of Bell's new helmets; a good blend of creases and curves. The Revolver has Bell's "Velocity Flow Ventilation" method and, like the rest of Bell's lineup, it flows a decent quantity of air - even though it does not have any brow vents which cuts down somewhat on the total volume of air moved via the helmet.
Besides being able to go all Transformerish the Revolver also has another converting trick up it's proverbial sleeve; a hidden sunshade. In contrast to the one fitted towards the Nolan helmet we tested a couple years back, this one actually comes down far enough to allow you to look through the middle of it and not via the distorted lower edge.
The Bell Revolver features a distinctive stance with regards to the open position of the chin bar. The chin bar locks open at an angle that is just slightly lower than 90 degrees. This coupled using the relatively flat/straight design of the chin bar, causes the chin bar - when in the open position - to double as a visor. As a matter of reality, with the chin bar raised the Revolver reminds me of a three quarter helmet having a visor - kinda cool! The other aspect of the shape and positioning of the chin bar when opened is that it is somewhat aerodynamic and doesn't create the aforementioned "sail effect". While testing the helmet I was in a position to ride with it in the raised position at 65mph without any discomfort and that is on a motorcycle with minimal wind deflection.
