The XD7 is the next evolution of the Bell GTX3, designed specifically for open-cockpit dirt racing. It features a redesigned integrated rear spoiler and a Venturi ventilation system with rear-facing chin bar vents and extraction ports that continuously move air through the helmet, plus a lightweight carbon fiber shell and Snell homologation. One real customer's take on that lightweight claim: "Very light well constructed helmet." — Michael G., Verified Customer, 5★, April 3, 2026. If you're racing on pavement instead of dirt, the XR7's fully open vents are the better match for that environment.
