Product Description
The Bell Venture Fusion Sport 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 Venture also features a removable snap-in visor, and cam-lock levers that make it easy to adjust the straps around your ears. For your comfort, this bicycle helmet includes 23 vents that allow cool, fresh air in and warm air out. The Venture helmet comes in Bell's Universal Adult size (54-61cm), weighs 260 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

Two and a half years later... November 1, 2008

As you can see from the customer product images, I purchased a Bell Venture helmet over two years ago. I'm back to buy another because I fell off the edge of a low "North Shore" ladder at a mountain bike park and this helmet saved my noggin from a good wallop. As it's designed to, the helmet cracked but my head didn't.
My Venture has held up well for the ~3,000 miles I've put on it. The glue on the pads on the front has worn out a little causing the backing/foam/felt to separate about halfway but it's still comfortable just a little uncosmetic. The chin strap has avoided getting worn out on my cheek's beard stubble better than my other Bell helmet but maybe it's a fluke.
It may sound cheap, but there are many virtues behind the "universal size" scheme. The ratchet is easy to adjust and allows to lend it to someone you're trying to get into cycling.
The vents let a moderate amount of airflow in. In the summer it's a tad hot, but on the plus side the built in (removable) visor helps keep the sun out of your eyes. If you want superb ventilation you'll probably need to spend at least 3 times as much on a fancier helmet. But in the winter you'll be able to fit a cycling cap under just fine (once again hooray for that nice adjustment range).
Bottom Line: this could be the best $40 you've ever spent.

This helmet is light, it has a comfortable fit, it has good ventilation, it is easy to adjust(front and back) and it is a durable, sturdy choice for every day use.
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

After much searching, I selected the Bell Venture, and I now realize how good a choice this helmet is. The design includes a low-resistance shape without compromizing the structural integrity for safe biking.
Great choice November 2, 2007

The Bell Ventura is my first bike helmet, and I am delighted with it. It is comfortable, easy to adjust,and very reasonably priced.
The color even matches my mountain bike, and I'm so glad it has the detachable visor.
Though all of these bike helmets look rather strange, the ventilation keeps my head both protected and cool. I wear the Ventura every time I go out riding, and I wouldn't hop on my bike without it!
Helmets = BELL is my choice for protection July 6, 2009
JoAnn Novak-Little (Elko,NV USA)
Safety first,with that in mind, BELL is the first "helmet" mfg I think of. For many years my family has trusted BELL for all our helmets. The Venture fits great with the easy turn adjustable "headliner". The vents help air flow keep you cool. A very comfortable fit. Looks great,too!
