[Closed] Shops with good helmet choice in S/E?

I'll be in need of a new helmet very soon, I'm looking at stuff like the Bell super 3, Fox racing flux, Giro montaro, and so-on.

Being a biker I know how important helmet fit is (stop it...) so can anyone recommend decent, big shops in Kent or the S/E which have a wide range of big brand helmets to try on? My local shops seem to have either loads of roadie helmets, or one brand, or £30 el-cheapo non-brand crapness or a combination of the above...

Evans warehouse store, near Gatwick?

Check out the range/stock online, then pop in and they'll fetch them for you to try.

Cycle Surgery usually have good stock of helmets (Port Solent does). Got one of them nearby?

Unfortunately the only cycle surgery stores near are London ones, which all seem to just have road stuff (understandably).

TBH I didn't realise CRC/Wiggle had a proper 'actually' free returns policy, I may see what I can try on an Evans and/or order a couple from CRC and return any that don't fit right.
