GP.2 K
The GP.2K features a front aero chin bar, an ultra-lightweight carbon composite shell, pro-style interior with synthetic neck collar for outstanding comfort, and a front air intake that forces air into the helmet's forehead vents for maximum ventilation. The .200mm GP.2K air intake is replaceable and the helmet can be used without the air intake. The direct flow upper and lower chin bar vents on the front of the helmet help to increase airflow and prevent shield fogging.
The GP.2K is the karting only version of the GP.2 which combines advanced F1 styling, an innovative air intake system for maximum ventilation and leading-edge aerodynamic performance. The Snell K2010 GP.2K is a fantastic choice for karters who demand superior features, light weight and excellent fit.
The GP.2K has been designed to work with Bell's aero kits to configure the helmet for all forms of kart racing depending on the aerodynamic requirements and environment. While the GP.2K has a front aero lip and chin bar designed into the helmet, these aerodynamic kits enhance helmet performance to provide greater stability at higher speeds. The aerodynamic kits include top wicker gurneys which create an air separation point on the top of the helmet to allow airflow to detach from the helmet reducing buffeting, chin bar gurneys which add down force to the front of the helmet to prevent lift and rear spoilers that improve overall helmet stability. Because of the way airflow accelerates at higher speeds, Bell recommends using larger size gurneys at lower relative speeds and medium or smaller gurneys as speeds increase. The GP.2K comes with an air intake as standard equipment that can be replaced as necessary. The aero kits attach with double sided adhesive that holds aggressively to the shell yet can be removed easily without damaging the helmet's finish.

The GP.2K is certified to the Snell K2010 standard which requires the helmet to be tested to the Snell SA2010 standard test criteria but does not require the helmet to be fire retardant.
The GP.2K takes a 287 SRV Shield which features the SRV-1 pivot system and thumb tab on the drivers left side to allow for easy shield operation. Each helmet comes with a clear shield and Bell visor strip as standard equipment. The GP.2K also features Bell's redesigned face piece with recessed areas that allow for seamless radio integration and easy installation. Racers can also customize the fit of the GP.2K by using Bell's Cheek Pad Inserts in 5mm, 10mm, 15mm and 20mm sizes to tighten the fit in the cheek area. In addition, replacement face piece kits are available for the GP.2K in the event the front interior chin piece needs to be replaced. The helmet is available in White.
Customers buying the GP.2K also may be interested in accessory items including an anti-fog double screen shield insert to eliminate fogging in high humidity environments, chin cover seals (small and large) that seal the bottom chin bar area of the helmet and a breath deflector which installs at the top of the chin bar and directs breath downward to prevent shield fogging. The above accessory items (sold separately) are as follows:
