“I’ve been a big fan of Bell since I was a kid, so when they asked me to join their team, I jumped at the opportunity,” said Mees. “I recently had the chance to tour Bell’s technology center in Scotts Valley and I was very impressed by how much work they put into helmet performance and safety. I’m looking forward to a great season and am very proud to be running Bell in 2012.”

“Bell has a long and storied history in flat track that goes back to racing greats like Mert Lawwill and Cal Rayborn, “said Bell Brand Manager Brian Horton. “Jared Mees is a rider in the same tradition, and a great ambassador for the sport.”
