£16 Helmet on Ebay

Saw this on the Ebay daily deals. Might be of interest for someone looking for a cheap spare lid.

Don't think I'd want to wear a £16 helmet though.

The listing states it has been tested to ACU GOLD APPROVAL and EEC 22.05 SAFETY STANDARD so it should protect your head okay, it probably just weighs a ton.

Only £10 extra for a tinted visor as well, my visor was £45!!

Personally I wouldn't buy a helmet without trying it on, but if you've had that brand before...

If you're skint, far better than wearing some multiple-crashed secondhand POS.

one of the salesmen up here in an Aberdeen bike shop told me something when i was loking for my new helmet.

There is no such thing as an unsafe Helmet. all helmets meet road safety standards & to pick the best fit even if its the cheapest one in the shop.

£16 bargin if it fits your head.

Yeah, we're talking about these in work... there's gotta be something up with them as it's likely a tenner if the P&P is free (which it is).

If your stupid enough to buy a £16 helmet then a £16 helmet is fine.
