dannytrialskid Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Hello, Where would be the cheapest place to get a Giro Hex helmet? Any year I don't mind 2008, 2009... it really doesn't bother me! I found them for £50 and one for £35. The £50 is the latest version and the £35 is 2008 version. They both look really nice, I just want to buy a decent price range one, in which the £35 is, just wondering if anyone knew where to get one cheaper than this? Thanks, Danny.

Hannah Shucksmith Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 There's a shop on eBay that sell brand new ones. Big power seller. Really can't be bothered to find the link though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pretty much always (basically only ever not ride with a hat when i dont have one) ride with a helmet, but I have a BMX helmet, and I look like a douche in it, that's why I want a Giro Hex There's a shop on eBay that sell brand new ones.

Krisboats Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 I tried one of these on in a shop the other day and was rather suprised by how comfortable they are. Much better than my old giro skyline. Fudges cycles is doing it for £39 something but i think delivery is £3.99 from there. Though they seem to stock every colour option/size so if the ebay shop is missing some you could get the one you want from there for a pounds difference. I'm slightly torn between getting one of these or waiting for the new 661 recon helmet that's due in september. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannytrialskid Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 I wonder what this would be like for trials haha What one would you say is nicer? The Matt Brown / Gold Shards or Matt Black / Yellow Shards? I think I like the Matt Black / Yellow Shards better though Fudges cycles Are they just an online store?

Haha, I think I know what you mean and yes that is exactly what I thought, I am not spending £60 on a helmet. Here is a link to them, these ones are £43.94 posted. http://www.fudgescyclestore.com/index.php?p=79334&o=109451 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I like the Matt Black / Yellow Shards better though Are they just an online store? The Ti/fabric one is very nice. I think the fabric gives it a nice touch making it seem more expensive than it is. I also like the brown one, though probably would refrain from wearing a helmet that looks like it's covered in digitalised faeces. White or ti/fabric for me. Fudges have a couple of stores and a warehouse to store the online merchandise. Think theres one in london and one in either essex or surrey. I've been in the london one and the guys seemed really cool there, from what i can gather it's a fairly "family run" business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I've got a brand new in box Giro Hex in black S/M here that I could do for cheaper than them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannytrialskid Posted July 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) I've got a brand new in box Giro Hex in black S/M here that I could do for cheaper than them... I would, but if I get the same colour as my mate that I go riding with he will be annoyed :L How much anyways? Can you find out how much Tartybikes would get them in for? And then you can give me a price and I'll buy from Tarty, but in the Matt Black / Yellow shards one?

Mark W Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I don't really know - that was me selling one I have here, rather than me selling one through TartyBikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannytrialskid Posted July 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) yeah i know just wondering if tarty would be able to get one in? Or you can buy trade price from tarty and sell onto me personally, that way you make money [JOKE] Edited July 23, 2010 by dannytrialskid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 Or you can buy trade price from tarty and sell onto me personally, that way you make money If I was going to do that, I doubt I'd openly advertise that I was trying to mess my own employer around...

Was a joke anyways. Would Adam be the best one to talk to about a price for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 If you just call up the sales line then someone can talk to you about it, but it'd require waiting for our next order from that supplier before we could order it in, so it'd take a little while...

I'll just email, I'm in no rush at the moment. Hoping to get it before 5 weeks time though as I'm going to Barrow Farm so it would be nice to have it for then.
