Just found a good deal with Gecko Marine Safety Helmet which are slight seconds but direct from the manufacturer, Just type in Gecko safety into e bay and all appear to be £99. Massive saving and in several colours.
Going fast

Yeah, just got two white ones the other day. Excellent value, very warm and kept the wind out even at 45 knots on the way back from the folly.

I also rang gecko up and got them to add two padded helmet bags to the order.

Well worth the money

Helmet

As I posted, this was a good deal, I can see some slight colour change on the helmet but I have to look hard, all brand new for 99 quid

You should have bought one of the other psychedelic ones, you wouldn't have any colour problems there

We used ours on Friday in break in storms was about two degrees and new helmet made a hell of a difference. I have older ones without inflate collar which are not as good as these
