    A fair few are now showing up on eBay by the looks of things, opportunists likely, is it even worth the effort for a few extra quid?!

    I have a large, tried it on in the shop, thought it fitted pretty well. Got it home and have decided that it’s too big. Anyone want it for the price I paid plus whatever it takes to post?

    Anyone mounted a light to theirs yet?

    My old helmet mount doesn’t work on this new helmet as the vents are different. Think i’ll end up modifying a twofish lockblock

    Rob,

    The harness is attached to the helmet by a couple of press studs at the back. I just pulled it off and then moved it up or down. It was a bit of a pull but it worked.

    Ace fit, one medium less in Halfords, goes well with my Belkin kit and Whyte M109….it’s been a busy month.

    Was just thinking the other day that my 15 year old Giro that I use for nightride duties is probably past its best before date….

    For £17 can’t go wrong, bloke in the shop did a double take as he rang it through the till.

    Excellent PSA, thanks.

    Altered mine tonight – fits a lot better. There’s a hole either way to fit the press studs into.

    Have owned a Giro Feature for a year and never knew about this- have altered it as well tonight.

    Even better bargain than all of you, reserved a medium, went to collect it and they had sold the medium- bummer. Went back to get a medium they had sourced from another branch and they handed it to me free of charge with sincere apologies for the mix up! Well done Halfords!

    Brilliant psa. Got one last Friday to replace a disintegrating on one helmet (pads). It’s what gear should cost….the antithesis of all those daft prices in Friday treats….

    The thing is,so many of us have bought them it’s turned into the STW head wear of choice! Every time you see someone else out on the trail it’ll be ‘hello which one on the forum are you’ 😀

    I went in there the other day looking for tyres and found a Catlike Leaf for £17! Given I’d just lost my Giro Xen it was a no brainer.

    Better than the Xen too – more adjustments and more comfy.

    On the mounting light front, I’ve found a twofish lockblock works fairly well (although i’m using a copy for this)

    It needs the top and bottom straps to be perpendicular to each other

    I’ve cut off part of one side, so on the bottom one bit is full length and the other is shorter. This mounts with the full length bit inside the top vent, and the shorter bit on the helmet itself. Velcro strap goes through both vents to strap it to the helmet

    Not as low profile as my last mount, but seems to work fine

    I got a Catlike Leaf for £20 too. Went looking for the Bell but found it to be a bit mushroom-like on my massive head. Very happy with the Catlike in a similarly-lurid green.

    White City still have large and medium in stock. I saved an extra £20!
    (Tried one this afternoon but it felt very uncomfortable so didn’t bother.)

    Dilemma time…..

    When I got home I openned the box and found that tucked behind the helmet there was another item, not placed in there by myself I hasten to add, with a ticket price of £15.

    Now do I be the responsible stw citizen, acknowledge that I have got a bloody good deal on the helmet (that I am chuffed with) and hand it back to Halfords, or do I go back in and try and get a refund / credit note for the “gift”. It is something I will never have any use for so no point keeping hold of it.

    What would you do STW?

    You are related to postierich. £5 por favor.

    Email them. You can be honest, they’ll probably tell you to keep it. Then you can dispose of as you see fit.
