It seems there is very little out there....i am probably just paranoid that my shoe laces will disappear into the chain

Therefore i just bought a "shifter skinz" from fleabay:

If nothing else itleast it will secure my laces

....oh and its yellow!

You see alot of pasty teenagers with dyed black hair and badly applied black eyeliner wearing leather trench coats walking about Camden in these. Anything you want to own up to?

Just go to www.rideicon.com to see what they do - even do stuff for the ladies (got the wife a nice new set of riding gear)

Only problem is that only Hein Gerrick do any of their stuff in the UK, and from speaking to Paws, they have last years stock/styles

Got a great deal on this stuff at a shop/dealers in the US, one jacket - this one - retails at $600, best internet price was $520, I got it for $500
