Bike shops in Leeds for leathers and boots? - SV650.org

09-04-10, 08:48 PM

Anyone got any tips for bike shops in Leeds, I'm looking for a one piece suit not bothered on colour, more interested about quality/protection. I'm also looking for a decent set of boots. And possibly a relacement helmet.

The shops I know of are Hein Gericke and that other place near it (I can't remember the name).

Any more to reccommend?

Think its Jordans that have a big range of gear. Good job its only gear you are after, they are rubbish with bikes!

Jordans have RST and Wolf leathers. Hein Gericke have Alpinestar stuff, Arlen Ness & there own leathers. J&S which is over the road from Hein Gericke has a fair selection though I am not a fan of the staff in there!

I think there is a Colin Appleyards in Leeds also - not sure what there clothing selection is like though.

Colin Appleyards is a bit basic TBH. Nothing thats really good quality stuff IMO.
