Looking for a good place for trying on helmets

    I am thinking about getting a new helmet. However, I want to try before I
    buy. Most of the places I know have a fairly limited range. Any
    recommendations for a shop in the Essex/Herts/Kent(North) or NE London areas
    where I can try out a good range?

    I am looking for a flip-front with inner flip-down sun visor. My current
    Caberg Justissimo has been OK but I find it a bit noisy and slightly too
    short in the front-to back fitting (my chin is almost touching at the
    front). Any recommendations?

    Thanks - bookmarked as a potentially useful link but they are a bit short on
    flip-fronts.

    I find them reasonably helpful and used them for my last lid and 1-piece
    waterproof over-suit.

    I have one of these and really rate it. Comfy, not too heavy and quiet
    with sufficient room for my Cardo Rider FM speakers

    Given your experience in flogging helmets that's a really helpful
    endorsement. Thanks. Am I right in thinking they come with a pinlock
    visor?

    They come pinlock ready, but the insert isn't included in the box
