Looks interesting Steve, I wonder how the intercoms will work.
I would love a flip, but none fit my head, nose too big and the Jimmy Hill chin doesn't help either!
Gee.

I bought one of their open faced helmets a while ago. Fair quality for the price. Even bought an ultrasonic cleaner - small capacity but it does the job quite well , use either vinegar or lemon juice as cleaning agent.

I bought one a few years ago £15, as you say, small but does an ok job for the cost. Fairy liquid works just as well, with very hot water to help it clean. Only downside is the short timer. Gee. |

I bought a flip up front full face helmet last year , good value for money, a little noisy at speed but well worth the cash ....

I have the advertised 'performance' undergarments - they are good and keep you warm when needed - recommended!
Gloves are good too - as a backup. Wouldnt use them as my main pair as the protection isnt quite up to scratch, but as a spare set in the pannier they are fine.
Have the flip front helmet too, but really cannot recommend it. Very, very noisy even with ear plugs - and massive buffeting (when riding the pan Euro - no idea what it is like on the SD). Really couldnt get on with it so it is now a spare to my Schuberth. Will donate it to FB's vintage helmet collection in 25 years time!!!!

MCN done a review of Aldi CE Approved Waterproof trousers (£60) and jacket (£80) and they got a good review apparently going on sale on 8th March. They gave them a quality rating of 4 out of 5 and value rating of 5 out of 5.
