The Vortex GT is the latest version of the famous Vortex line of
helmets from Bell. The Snell SAH2010 Vortex GT offers high-end features
and performance at an affordable price. The redesigned styling of the
Vortex GT incorporates aggressive upper and lower chin bar vents,
forehead vents and top vents for outstanding ventilation. With an
ultra-lightweight carbon composite shell and pro-style interior for
superior comfort, the Vortex GT is always up to the challenge and can be
used in any style of racing.
The Vortex GT 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 Device systems. 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
Vortex GT takes a 276 SRV Shield and each helmet comes with a clear
shield and Bell visor strip as standard equipment. The Vortex GT 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 Vortex GT 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 Vortex GT in
the event the front interior chin piece needs to be replaced. The
helmet is available in White and Rubberized Mate Black finish - the
rubberized surface is more resistant to finger prints and smudges than
traditional flat finishes.
