Default Hein Gericke Braintree

Just went there to price up all my gear before the bike show, and I was throughly impressed by the level of customer service.

Ended up with my shopping list of:

Lid - Nolan N90, or AGV S4 £200. Like the Nolan for flip up but AGV is lighter and more comfortable and had integral sun visor.

Gloves - Alpinestars SP2 £85 (summer glove onry) - Lots of gloves but ended up only trying on the Alpinestars.

Boots - ProSports something £100 - All the rest were megabucks, this was the cheapest good looking officially waterproof ones.

Tried on a few jackets, the one I liked was about £279 though. Saying that they had an Arlen Ness suit for £479, kangeroo leather too. Was £900 but its "last season" (like I care) and it was in S or XS, which is what I am but not commonly sold.

The guy even gave me the idea of going in on 2 consecutive days to spread out my purchases to get muliple £40 discounts Good show.

If I dont get my gear from BMF I'll definately be going back I think (unless I can find em cheaper online elsewhere?!)

Overall though, very pleased.
