Hi, I have a HJC lordship full carbon helmet which is way too cold with all the vents it literally froze my ears, so I went to the shop linked below and I tried the Duchinnis which were ok, but by far the best for fit and retro looks which I like have a look at this, it feels like a 200 quid lid for £99, is a cracking fit and I have no complaints at all and is a good winter lid. B :D argain. :D

A well fitting cheap helmet is better than a top of the range poor fitting helmet.

I personally would rather buy a helmet from a brand whose name I recognise :wink:

At least you should have some sort of comfort in the quality of helmet you are going to get .....

We bought a nice (new old stock) AGV for around £100 from CMS in Exeter (you need to go upstairs, to the MX bit) for my son a couple of months ago, and also try George White Outlet shop or J&S in Plymouth/Bodmin ..... they also do known brand "end of line" stuff. I got my Arai from the GW Swindon store for £165 8)
Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....
