New Lid
Re: New Lid
Motorbike shops will likely be cheaper and just as good,... await SE power-rangers to advise..
Re: New Lid
Methinks some of the bigger TD organisers will start requiring lids complying with car regs, if they don't already? Snell, etc, that bike ones aren't built for?
Grand Prix Raceware are another option. No personal experience, just on rep.

Re: New Lid
On Frolic last year Golding advised my lid wasn't up to scratch and wouldn't be allowed on with some organisers. No point paying a fortune for everything else and scrimping on the hard hat..
GPR are good (have been to their unit) but not the cheapest. Wondered if any racers knew better places to shop

Re: New Lid
I had a chat with someone at Kames recently who's involved in setting up a new motorsport parts business in Scotland, no experience of them myself, but he was talking about having a decent stock of helmets/racesuits to try on for size:

Re: New Lid
Another option is Rennat at Knoxkhill. Joe is well known for his helmet painting, but also sells Bell and Stilo helmets

As you were.
Re: New Lid
You can usually negotiate a decent discount from demon thieves if you give them a call. I did get a good deal on my new race suit from GPR, again managed to get a decent discount from them too.
Nicky Grist also offers a really good service on Stilo helmets.
I also have a Arai Jet GP open face helmet that is now surplus to requirements.
