The redesigned GTX.2 is an ideal choice for
racers competing in open wheel, open compartment, formula, karting or
dirt track forms of racing. The Snell SAH2010 GTX.2 features sleek aero
styling including a front chin gurney and integrated rear wing for
enhanced aerodynamic stability at higher speeds. With an
ultra-lightweight carbon composite shell and pro-style interior for
outstanding comfort, the GTX.2 provides industry-leading performance lap
after lap.
The design of the GTX.2 is effective at preventing
dust and dirt from entering the helmet by combining a venturi air
exchange system with Bells innovative eyeport foam tape and positive
locking mechanism that seals the visor. The venturi ventilation system
allows air to exchange inside the helmet. As air flows over the helmet,
the venturi effect increases cooling inside the helmet and prevents
shield fogging by creating a vacuum to pull airflow through the helmet.
The rear facing chin bar vents and rear exhaust vents allow ventilation
while minimizing dust and dirt inside the helmet.
The GTX.2 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 Devices. Bell is the first company in the
industry to certify helmets to the Snell SAH2010 standard. Bells 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
GTX.2 takes a 287 SRV Shield which features the SRV-1 pivot system and
thumb tab on the drivers left side to allow for easy shield operation.
Each helmet comes with a clear shield and Bell visor strip as standard
equipment. The GTX.2 also features Bells redesigned face piece with
recessed areas that allow for seamless radio integration and easy
installation. Racers can also customize the fit of the GTX.2 by using
Bells 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 GTX.2 in the event the front interior chin piece needs
to be replaced. The helmet is available in White and Rubberized Matte
Black finish the rubberized surface is more resistant to finger prints
and smudges than traditional flat finishes.
The integrated
aerodynamic wing on the GTX.2 is included with the helmet. It can be
easily replaced if necessary. The wing kits (design exclusively for use
with the GTX.2) are as follows:
2022186 GTX.2 WING KIT (WHITE) - $29.95
2022187 GTX.2 WING KIT (RUBBERIZED MATTE BLACK) - $29.95
