the RRP is £99.99 so that makes it a hundred quid lid.......


also as dannywiz said its good for people on a budget, as most people on here whom dont have a lid because they cant afford one

Re: full face helmets £19.99 NEW

its true that anything is better than nothing on your head.

but when you see a product that they say is down from 99.99 to 19.99

thats £80 off , it either makes you think mmmm cant shift stock or are they really that good

as they are road bike helmets and i ride on the road i would rather pay a min of £150 for a road helmet anyday.

but saying that everyone is diferent

Yeh but if it's passed the safety tests then why not. I would certainly trust it. It's like you and stomp/welshpitbikes import bikes and sell them for twice the price to other people, just because you charge twice the amount doesn't make them better quality, or would you rather there be a 100 pounds price tag on the helmet

Granted, my AGV lid I wear when I'm riding my bigger bikes, Is £200 worth. At the end of the day, An approved helmet is an approved helmet. They are both as safe as each other.


The only real benefits the more expensive helmets have over the cheaper helmets is them being a comfier fit, Less wind noise at speed, Visor lock, Better air vents, better strap etc.
