This 2022 Bell helmet is the mid-price-point model in Bell's Gravel category.
Industrial Designer Franco Boffi
My role was fairly heavy on this one. Franco preferred that I take over surfacing CAD early on, updating iteratively with him through final design phases. My designed components: rear plastic reinforcement, front plastic reinforcement, MIPS low friction layer, fit system height adjustor, all other components are co-designed with Franco.
Mid-project Marketing wanted a mountable Blinky light. This impacted the schedule, of course, but not by much. We delayed tooling release while I designed the light and means to mount with support of the rear plastic reinforcement. Franco directed the external cosmetics.
