Does anyone want to buy a helmet?
I feel like a mug, but I think I’ve got to admit to myself that I’ve bought a helmet that’s slightly too small. I’m absolutely gutted as it’s exactly what I wanted and while I am trying quite hard to save money I seem to be wasting it left, right and centre.
AGV GT Veloce GTX (Black and Gun Metal Grey)
Size: M/S 57-58cm (I would say it’s more 57cm than 58cm cheeks and skull cap can be tweeked)
Shell: Carbon-kevlar
Pinlock: Clear one fitted & included
Sharp Rating: 5 star

Asides from the general blurb you can find anywhere I’d say it’s a great helmet. You can tell it’s quality, better than the cheaper Arais. Loads of nice touches, like extra padding for the cheeks (lol), nice and small shell (sobs), adjustable skull cap, brilliant visibility – it really is good both height and width. Good ventilation.
Less than 2 weeks use. I’ve registered the helmet to get the 5yr warranty – obviously happy to help inforce that down the line if needs be.
If you’re within sensible riding distance from the City, or live north I’m happy to ride over after work if you want to try it.
