Bike Helmet Deals & Offers

Nah lol. Road only. Classic mountain bike and a hybrid for fun and commute only. Just like to protect me looks

Nice and lightweight, fits like a glove.

I hope you don’t ride a motorbike

Well I a big kid at heart so why not

Thats what I can do with my old version lol

Sorry there is no stock of this item in any other stores

You need to apologise to the tortoise because they're actually faster than the Halfords website.

how is this even gaining heat, there's no stock anywhere

Goose and chase with wild .... comes to my mind

No stock, cold!!

Well, I know I'd rather this happened to my helmet than my head...

You’re absolutely right - I’m the one that’s missing the point (excited)

Ok (party) (party) (party) (party) (party)

I can't speak for Surrey, being a filthy Northerner, but I do know that up here the vast majority of cycle infrastructure, especially in towns and cities, is shockingly badly thought out. A combination of cycle lanes positioned where deliveries are most likely to block them, forcing the cyclist to constantly rejoin the flow of traffic, side-junctions where the through-cyclist is required to give way to traffic joining the road, but the through-motorist does not, endless dreaded "cyclists dismount" signs and sections where you have to dodge pedestrians who aren't interesting in keeping out of the cycle lanes. The result is a higher level of risk of collision and significantly increased journey times. Honestly, it's safer (and quicker) to ride in the flow of traffic than to be constantly joining and leaving the flow and, of course, no less than the cars on the road, cyclists have somewhere to go and don't want to stop every 100yds to give way to cars. That's not to say that there isn't good cycling infrastructure, but the vast majority up here was clearly built by non-cyclists to tick a box on a form somewhere without any consideration as to who might want to use it.

Road tax: hasn't existed since 1936 when it was replaced by VED, and of course not all cars pay this - the most efficient, non-polluting will pay zero and I'm pretty confident that bikes fall into this category. So, arguably, they do pay it at the prevailing rate of zero. Roads are paid for through central taxation and there is no link between VED, fuel tax, insurance tax and road maintenance or development Fuel: Correct, bikes do not use fuel and fuel is taxed predominantly to fill the central exchequer's coffers and partly as an environmental consideration where the most inefficient vehicles pay more, as well as heavy users, so the system is more fair than, say, a flat tax. Based on a consideration of both pollution and wear and tear to the roads, I think it's safe to say that cyclist's cake and coffee are probably correctly not taxed as road fuel duty Insurance: This is a more interesting topic and has some good arguments. Personally, I do have insurance as well as legal cover, but I guess I am very much an exception. I also don't crash into cars, nor do I run red-lights. And as for the last point, have a read of this: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/bike-blog/2011/aug/15/cyclists-paved-way-for-roads

Perhaps you'd want to pick a pack of these up while at it

Haha...the name of this helmet is hilariously unfortunate

Picked one up last week for my boy, he said its very uncomfortable. Took it back for the £10 ones instead which were a lot better.

Picked up one of these for my 3 year old girl. fits perfectly and seems very comfy. Bargain!

This okay for an average sized 7 year old?

Good deal, I remember buying it for £4

Why MIPS not ARM or x86? Also what benefit does having a CPU in your helmet provide?

Of course they have it's great marketing.

A lot of manufacturers already adopted this tech. Better be safe than sorry :)

Has there been any independant studies on MIPs helmets to see if they are nay better?

can't get enough of that MIPS!!!

Hot. Just bought 2 medium for the kids! Not sure why its expired. Thanks

still available medium

Yep both medium and large out of stock. Expiring...

Sold out.

Thanks managed to order the medium while it was saying stock low. Large apparently now out of stock

If anyone had bought and changed their minds because of safety, I really need the R2d2 for a project. I’ll pay purchase price plus p&p

Theres a reason they didnt sell and are now on sale they look stupid and your kids will not want to wear them if theyre older than say 7 and if they do wear them they will get bullied

And halloween costumes also conform to safety standards, despite going up in flames. I'm offering advice from experience. The problem is that you can't fit them to their head properly due to the poor adjustments, making them pretty useless. Aside from the Disney helmet, the others are skateboard style helmets and wouldn't be allowed on most Bikeability courses. Feel free to ignore my advice, but personally I prefer my kids to wear proper helmets which fit their heads correctly and provide much better protection

All Tesco cycling helmets conform to EN1078 safety standards.

If you buy this for your kid they're gonna be bullied so bad

This is awful, likely to put kids off cycling for life.

the replies are great

What age would you recommend for?

Thanks for sharing op...

How confusing using the same name....! Well the shape of it is comfortable at least haha!

My comments seem to get removed for political reasons, so I will just say this... Before you buy this brand, please Google their holding company then make your own choice on whether you want to give them your money.

Nope this one without MIPS. This one yes ;)

This version doesn't have MIPS. The MIPS version starts at £29.99 depending on size and colour combo. http://www.wiggle.co.uk/giro-foray-road-helmet-mips/

same company

For £24.99 think it's worth it for at least a couple years use - https://helmets.org/replace.htm

Manufacturers recommend replacing helmet after a certain amount of years, a money spinner yes but also safety for degradation of materials. Whether the clock starts from manufacture date or purchase I’m not sure, but with a 2016 helmet that clock is ticking :/

I ordered this helmet as i liked the colour and design,the quality also looks better than my two other older Chinese helmets,seems to be an opinion in the comments they are un-safe not sure why as China supply all the low to mid range makes most riders wear so they must be good enough meet the required safety standards. For me the risk is the fit, always better to try on before buying,but nothing similar available from my local shops.

Rule of thumb: If its anything to do with safety DON'T buy from an unreputable source. Because sure as s$$$ when you need it, it wont work properly. I'd rather pay a few extra quid from halfuds knowing that if something did go wrong they could be held accountable.

Looks like the S-Works Evade helmet! Personally I wouldn’t skimp on a cycle helmet but different strokes for different folks especially if you have a small budget.

I've bought many things from China, but one of the few I wouldn't is a bike helmet.

I don't doubt the protection offered by the authentic version of this, i'm just not sure i'll be getting an authentic one if i buy off aliexpress. During last year's Ride 100 i fell off my bike during a downhill section after Leith Hill and landed on my head. The only thing that saved me from sure death was my helmet.

"Discount applied in basket unless product already shows a saving"
