Product Description
Built with urban sensibilities in mind, the Bell Citi Life and Style Bike Helmet delivers midrange features at a base-model price. This life and style-bike helmet is constructed with a fusion in-mold microshell, which utilizes the process of bonding the helmet's microshell to its EPS foam layer, rather than forming the two separately and taping them together later, to provide a sturdier, more solid helmet. This helmet features Bell's ErgoDial fit system to deliver an easy one-hand adjustment with the press of a button and slide of the dial for a firm, snug and comfortable stability. The Citi also features a removable blade visor, and cam-lock levers that make it easy to adjust the straps around your ears. For your comfort, this bicycle helmet includes 16 channeled vents that are specially designed to force cool, fresh air in through the front and around your head, while flushing warm air out of the rear ports. The Citi helmet comes in Bell's Universal Adult size (54-61cm), weighs 290 grams, and complies with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's safety standards for bicycle helmets. Helmet Tips--You Should Always... - Wear a helmet when you ride
- Wear your helmet low in the front to protect the forehead
- Fasten your buckle and tighten your chin strap
- Check your adjustments every time you wear your helmet
- Inspect your helmet regularly for signs of wear or damage
- Wear a helmet designed for your activity

 Sell should have told me October 3, 2008
Nothing about this helmet that I don't like. I bought it based on safety reviews. Might have bought the safety yellow but found black on Amazon at a great price and free shipping. What's not to like? 1 thing. I was sold a 2007 helmet and that fact was not disclosed by the seller. Am not sure what might have changed in a year and I might have bought anyway. Am I sending it back over this? No. None the less, I should have been told. I have not had the helment long enought to go more than 4 stars. I give the seller 3 stars. Good price, fast delivery, arrived in good condition, but should have disclosed this was last year's closeout.

The Bell Citi is a superb helmet. Perfect for women, and has a sleek and compact look. Fits really well, adjustments work well. It also got a great write up on Consumers Report.

Fit and comfort are right on. Couldn't be more satisfied as description detailed the product very accurate. Would buy again.
Nice Helmet June 26, 2008
I don't know anything about bike helmets, but this was cheap, fits good, and I don't look stupid wearing it... fine by my book.
Citi helmet does the job well and doesn't look bad either... June 20, 2008

The Bell Citi has not only passed all bike helmet impact tests with flying colors, but doesn't have the spine-like protrusions on the back which can snag on the pavement if you get hit and cause neck injury. The smooth, rounded, stylish back-end is an ideal shape for a bike helmet. It looks so retro-mod to me, like a 1960's Motorcycle or scooter helmet - stylized for bicycle riders.
I feel good and really quite slick in this helmet, also 14 large vents keep my head cool but don't compromise structural integrity like some more expensive bike helmets. More than 14 vents is probably superfluous to most people anyway. Unless your a cyclist that is a racer you don't need an aerodynamic helmet. The neligible difference it would make at normal speeds isn't worth the extra cash. The Bell Citi only gets four stars because the ear-straps are scratchy, a minor annoyance rather than a detractor. Buy the Citi, it is the best helmet I have owned thus far.
