Product Description
The BELL Ukon Helmet is an amazing value for money, stylish and functional helmet that's designed for recreational use with 17 vents, visor and Ergo dial fit system. The Ergo Dial Fit system arcs inwards to cup and cradle the riders head as it tightens to ensure a perfect custom fit along with the intuitive one handed dial adjustment at the back. The velcro-less pad fitting system allows simple removal for washing whilst the inclusion of a snap-fit Blade visor keeps all the weather elements out of your eyes.

I bought one of these by chance, as I felt that with commuting in and out of Leeds, i was risking the unthinkable. As an experienced rider (15+ years competitive level of Cross Country racing) I thought I'd always be able to avoid a compromising situation on the road, yesterday however I was proved wrong when a car came out of nowhere and smashed into me, sending me over the bonnet, causing me to land on my head and shoulder on solid tarmac. Luckily my neck wasn't broken and my head was protected by this helmet which now has two large cracks through the top of it, which would have been my skull. The Police said I would have almost certainly died without the helmet.
It may not look so cool to wear one, but jazz it up with some sunnies, swallow your pride and wear one.
Lastly, I'd say make sure you tighten the straps suffciently sufficiently to ensure the helmet covers your head if you pull it from side to side, front and back.
Hope this helps someone.

A great cycle helmet at a great price.
As a motorcyclist I was attracted by the manufacturer: Bell, a leader in motorcycle helmets; I reckoned they should know what they're doing!
The great thing about this helmet is that it's fully adjustable: one size fits all. No two heads in the same general size range will be the same, so it's the sensible way to go, especially buying online.
The helmet comes with very clear fitting instructions. These are excellent and tell you exactly how to test for fit after making the various adjustments. I would emphasise the instruction that the side 'split' should be just below and IN FRONT of the ear. This ensures the front straps are more vertical on the side of the head and really does make the helmet sit more firmly, and stops it moving backwards. Put the strap 'split' just a little further back (below the ear) and the helmet will move up on the forehead when you put the helmet through their recommended 'serious' fit test.
It took me about an hour to make all the adjustments to my satisfaction and I would recommend not rushing. The first time I made the adjustments it seemed ok, but just failed the 'serious' fit test. I couldn't initially work out why (see the comment above about the side strap 'split' point -- I had to move it forward by only about half a centimetre).
As this is my first cycling helmet it felt a little strange at first, but it really is comfortable. I'm delighted.
Is there a gripe? A tiny one which may apply to all cycling helmets. I don't know. On a motorcycle helmet there is a single strap that you pull to tighten the helmet.... Read more ›

Arrived promptly. Before this helmet I had a much more expensive one (which I left on the train) and I can say this one is just as good. Would recomend this product - don't be put off by the competitive price - its good quality

Very good value, but .....although it's sold as 'uni-size' it actually says '54~61cm' on the helmet and i've set it at the max size because wanted >60cm so fits ok but what about in the winter when i wear a hat?!

To be honest, I was mostly influenced by the two people who crashed wearing this helmet & who were going to order another! As a middle-aged bald, four-eyes, the look of the thing shouldn't really matter, but my kids have said it looks, "quite cool," which is praise indeed. It really is light & comfortable and took a couple of minutes to fit. Love the visor for sun & rain, great price, fast delivery - Thank you.

This helmet ticks all the boxes for me. It's comfy, it's easy to adjust the straps (for under the chin, around the ears and inside the helmet for around the head).
As an added bonus, as far as cycle helmets go, it looks pretty good.
The visor is also effective at keeping sun out your eyes.

Excellent Helmet at a great price
I bought this helmet due to the price and the reviews. I am very happy with it and it fits my head great and I normally struggle with helmets because I have a big head.
