    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....

    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.
