Bell Partners With Roland Sands Design For MX-9 MIPS Rally Helmet

Bell’s MX-9 MIPS helmet delivers excellent protection at a budget-friendly price point. In the event of a crash, the motocross lid reduces rotational forces with the MIPS safety system and mitigates impacts with a polycarbonate shell. While it’s hard to argue with the MX-9's functional capabilities, Bell teamed up with AMA 250GP National Champion, lauded custom builder, and designer Roland Sands to amp up the design with the MX-9 MIPS Rally helmet.

The race-inspired lid features a tri-co paint scheme that calls back to BMW’s Dakar glory days. Aligning with the rally heritage, Bell pairs the color block design with checkered flag graphics on the chin bar and retro RSD logos at the sides and crown. Completing the race livery look, Bell adds K&N, Dunlop, and Motul branding, three companies that support Sands’ Super Hooligan National Championship.
