GP.2 Bell Helmet Ultra Series - Carbon Composite Shell |
| Detailed Description |
|
The Snell SAH2010 GP.2 is a perfect choice for
open wheel, formula racers and karters who demand superior features, light
weight and excellent fit. Bell's GP.2 combines advanced F1 styling, an
innovative air intake system for maximum ventilation and leading-edge
aerodynamic performance. The redesigned GP.2 features a front aero chin bar, an
ultra-lightweight carbon composite shell, pro-style interior for outstanding
comfort and a front air intake that forces air into the helmet’s forehead vents
for superior ventilation. The .200mm GP.2 air intake is replaceable and the
helmet can be used without the air intake. The direct flow upper and lower chin
bar vents on the front of the helmet help to increase airflow and prevent shield
fogging.
Designed to work with Bell’s aero kits to configure the helmet for all open wheel and open compartment forms of racing depending on the aerodynamic requirements and environment. The GP.2 has a front aero lip and chin bar designed into the helmet, these aerodynamic kits enhance helmet performance to provide greater stability at higher speeds. The aerodynamic kits include top wicker gurneys which create an air separation point on the top of the helmet to allow airflow to detach from the helmet reducing buffeting, chin bar gurneys which add down force to the front of the helmet to prevent lift and rear spoilers that improve overall helmet stability. Because of the way airflow accelerates at higher speeds, Bell recommends using larger size gurneys at lower relative speeds and medium or smaller gurneys as speeds increase. The GP.2 comes with an air intake as standard equipment that can be replaced as necessary. The aero kits attach with double sided adhesive that holds aggressively to the shell yet can be removed easily without damaging the helmet's finish. Other aerodynamic kits (sold separately) that can be used with the GP.2 include: REAR SPOILER V.06 CLEAR (SMALL) - $29.95 REAR SPOILER V.09 CLEAR (LARGE) - $29.95 CHIN BAR GURNEY V.10 CLEAR (MEDIUM) - $29.95 CHIN BAR GURNEY V.10 CLEAR (LARGE) - $29.95 TOP WICKER GURNEY V.10 CLEAR (MEDIUM) - $29.95 TOP WICKER GURNEY V.10 CLEAR (LARGE) - $29.95 GP.2 AIR INTAKE .200MM V.10 (WHITE) - $29.95 GP.2 AIR INTAKE .200MM V.10 (CLEAR) - $29.95 GP.2 AIR INTAKE .200MM V.10 (RUBBERIZED MATTE BLACK) - $29.95 The GP.2 is certified to the Snell SAH2010 standard which requires the helmet to be tested to the Snell SA2010 standard plus additional testing for use with Head and Neck Restraint Devices. Bell is the first company in the industry to certify helmets to the Snell SAH2010 standard. Bell’s M6 terminal hardware is incorporated into the helmet and accepts Head and Neck Restraint anchor system hardware. (We recommend consulting with the Head and Neck Restraint manufacturer to select an anchor system that allows the user to index the hardware in the proper location for use with the device.) The Snell SAH2010 standard is compatible with FIA8858-2010 and is recognized by the FIA for use outside of North America. The GP.2 takes a 287 SRV Shield which features the SRV-1 pivot system and thumb tab on the drivers left side to allow for easy shield operation. Each helmet comes with a clear shield and Bell visor strip as standard equipment. The GP.2 also features Bell’s redesigned face piece with recessed areas that allow for seamless radio integration and easy installation. Racers can also customize the fit of the GP.2 by using Bell’s Cheek Pad Inserts in 5mm, 10mm, 15mm and 20mm sizes to tighten the fit in the cheek area. In addition, replacement face piece kits are available for the GP.2 in the event the front interior chin piece needs to be replaced. The helmet is available in White and Rubberized Matte Black finish – the rubberized surface is more resistant to finger prints and smudges than traditional flat finishes. Customers buying the GP.2 also may be interested in accessory items including an anti-fog double screen shield insert to eliminate fogging in high humidity environments, chin cover seals (small and large) that seal the bottom chin bar area of the helmet and a breath deflector which installs at the top of the chin bar and directs breath downward to prevent shield fogging. The above accessory items (sold separately) are as follows: 287 HYPER SHIELD ANTI FOG INSERT - $29.95 CHIN COVER SEAL (SMALL) - $19.95 CHIN COVER SEAL (LARGE) - $19.95 BREATH DEFLECTOR - $19.95 • Formula Style Helmet • Advanced Aerodynamic Styling • Air Intake To Maximize Forehead Ventilation • Direct Flow Chin Bar Ventilation • Ultra-Lightweight Carbon Composite Shell Technology • Standard Eyeport • Positive Seal Visor System • Recessed Face Piece for Seamless Radio Integration • Available in White and Rubberized Matte Black • 287/3MM SRV Shield (SRV-1 Pivot System) • E-Max Plus Multi Density Liner • Pro Style Comfort-Plus Interior • M6 Terminal Hardware for Head & Neck Restraint Device Anchor Systems • Compatible with the FIA8858-2010 Standard • Snell SAH2010 Certification |
