Bargain Hunter | Flip your lid with this week's best deals on modular helmets

Published: 01 November 2023 Updated: Yesterday 13:29

There’s no shortage of cheap motorbike kit to be found on the internet – but it can be more difficult to know who and what to trust. Every week in MCN’s Bargain Hunter we bring you the best deals we can find online from reputable retailers selling trustworthy kit that won’t let you down or break the bank.

Modular Helmets

Modular helmets, or flip-fronts as most of us call them, provide an extra level of convenience for anyone who spends a lot of time in their lid. Being able to raise the chin bar means not having to remove it when paying for petrol, making a delivery or having a quick chat with your mates, and that can save a bundle of time when you’re on the go.

Last week’s bargains

Protection, be it from injury or the elements, is what bike gear is all about. So it makes sense that much of it looks like it’s been designed for exactly that, with a slant towards a specific type of riding, such as technical touring textiles or race ready leathers. That’s all well and good, but there are times when you want to slip under the radar, so for this week’s trawling of the net we’ve baited our hook for kit that won’t look out of place in a social setting.
