Anyway getting back to lids.
Go into a shop,look around,try on a few lids,know how they should fit and the feel of them on your crown,cheeks and the chin/mouth gap.
Ask for assistance if you ain't got a clue about fitting.
Then ask for a good deal on the helmet you like or else go and buy it online.
Very simple to try before you buy these days.

Now I'm off out for a bike ride.
Far too nice a day out there for the bikes to be sat in the garage....

Fair play to you.
Listen,that banter earlier on was banter,all be it a bit full on.

But respect given where it due,so fair play for working from home and doing daddy day care too.
It ain't easy,that's for sure.

Helmet City in the UK have some good black friday deals on at the moment.
Picked up a few good deals from them this time last year over at the Motorcycle Live in the NEC.

I've bought 3 helmets since outgrowing my cheap starter lid.

First was from Cotters at the RDS bike show for cheaper than the online alternatives.

I replaced this a few weeks later after a low speed spill got the better of it (and not my face) but ordered it from helmet city as I knew the model and size I needed and Cotters couldn't match their price.

Then bought a Shark Spartan carbon from Cotters on their open weekend, for 20% off the tag price which put it cheaper then the online/UK sites.

I'd much prefer to buy local, try it on etc. But if I can save €50-100 quid on the exact same thing by ordering online it really is hard to justify it.
