Customer reviews
Two and a half years later... 
by .. Kevin Septor (Seattle, WA USA)
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.
Bell Venture Is Good Choice For Everyday Riding by .. JAMES B. REED (LA GRANGE, IL United States)
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.
Great choice by .. Patrick Hickey (Sedona, Arizona)
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!
This helmet has all the average rider needs by .. R. Reilley ()
I am a casual biker. I go on some organized rides, bike trails and rides around the neighborhood with my kids. I was replacing a ten year old helmet and did some reasearch on helmets beforehand. I found some fit rounder heads and some fit oval heads better. I have more of an oval shaped little larger head. I tried on Gyro and Specialized, but Bell fits me like a glove. Just make sure you read the instructions on how to adjust it correctly. This helmet was so popular at the bike store I bought the last one. I was surprised at how low the price was too. I was expecting to pay almost twice as much. I tried on some more expensive helmets, but the difference was not really noticeable. I got the titanium/silver color and it looks really sharp. You will not be disappointed with this helmet.
Cool head by .. S. Jeffrey (Caribbean)
This helmet is good bang for your buck and with 16 vents, you're sure to keep a cool head. I especially like the ErgoDial fit system; I was able to adjust the fit to my head making it as snug as I like it and with a head measurement of 22" it's just what I neaded. I also liked the fact that it doesn't move around on my head as others did. It's light weight without feeling or looking cheap. I usually wear shades with mine and although I haven't tried them yet I'm thinking it should work. This is my second BELL helmet...4 extra vents and a better fit...I'm happy!
