Steve McQueen is well regarded as one of the coolest men of the 20th century, as the son of a flying circus stunt pilot and the legendary star of Bullitt, The Great Escape and Le Mans, moving through the world with effortless grace and charm. The American actor was also a well-known motorcycle enthusiast with a love for Husqvarna bikes and open-faced helmets, so in a tribute to the great Steve McQueen, Bell has just released its own version of his iconic racing-striped helmet.

Satefy is always critical when it comes to picking the right motorcycle helmet for yourself, but that doesn’t mean you can’t look the part too. Arriving in Bell’s Custom 500 three-quarter helmet collection, the blue and white striped fibreglass composite shell lid arrives with a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) safety stamp as well as the ECE (Economic Commission for Europe) safety certification which is also legally approved for riding across Australia.

Available in no less than five different sizes, the Steve McQueen-inspired Bell helmet is secured with a padded chin strap while comfort is guaranteed thanks to its quilted contrast stitching interior lining. The exterior is fitted with an integrated 5-snap pattern to allow for after-market shields and visors to be attached, meaning you can take McQueen’s legacy and make it your own.
