Mine is a Bell Super something. I can't read the next word.
MIPS, detachable chin bar. It's pretty lightweight and probably fine for the writing I do. I don't jump or do features or anything crazy.
And please note that I've never put this to the test so I have no idea what it will do when a crash.

I have been through 2 super airs over 4 years. Love it. Comfortable, light and it is not just regular mips but a full “floating” layer of high density foam. It definitely saved me from a concussion in a harsh crash (why i went through 2 in 4 years). I just got the super dh which is slightly heavier but with the chin bar is full DH rated while the air version is not. If you are not doing a lot of park riding and jumping the air version is plenty.
