Article by Lisa M. Ballard / Photos by Chris McMorrow - I could have easily titled this feature The Apology as I need to apologize to ChopCult member Jesse Pafford publicly. You see, Jesse has patiently waited for his bike to be featured here since the beginning of October. Since then, I dealt with email hacking (a big F U to whoever is to blame) and lost over ten years of contacts and many work-in-process features, one being Jesse's. I have to commend Jesse for not putting me on blast for making him wait. His bike and the touching story deserve to be featured, and I am thrilled to showcase it today. Read more

"Bell developed the first mass-produced auto racing helmet in 1954 and has a long history in the industry with a performance-first mindset, and we drew on that history to design a racing-inspired helmet for motorcycle riders," said Chris Sackett, Bell Helmets vice president. "We pride ourselves on developing purpose built helmets that not only protect the rider, but offer a number of other key features that riders desire. Eliminator has an aggressive attitude perfect for any rider looking to scorch the dragstrip, carve the canyons or own the streets."

The Eliminator's DNA lends itself to a storied history of burned rubber, dragstrip lights, checkered flags and white knuckles infused into a purpose-built street brawler. The newest addition to Bell's lineup is product of the company's continued innovation and combines light weight, perfect fit with Bell's legendary reputation for protection. The helmet, which comes in a variety of colorway options, will be available in December in select retailers and online at www.bellhelmets.com.
