New Helmet

Post by MattGreaves »

Hi all,

Looking to get a new helmet due to my current one getting on a bit and not fitting as well as it should. Knowing that helmets from different manufacturers fit better than others and ensuring I get the right size and fitment, can anyone recommend somewhere where they have a wide range of helmets available to try on?

Many thanks in advance,

Matt

Helmet City at West Bay is probably the best in the region, CMS in Exeter is where i bought mine, or nearer you J&S in Plymouth, or you could try our very own Dave Avery at Bugle ......

Big thanks to Moose for the suggestion/recommendation, I popped over to J&S this afternoon and picked up my new lid :). Never tried them before but extremely helpful group of guys :)

Like it.. Looks cool. Glad you found a place you felt happy buying from.

That's nice Matt! Where's J and S again? Looking at getting my wife some bike trousers and as she's very small I would rather go where we can try before we buy!

Badger, treat her to a day out in England :wink:

J&S are in Plymouth, and you also have Just Bikers there too.
