Helmet dye..

I have noticed recently that after I ride the bike, the dye out my helmet fabric seems to rub against my neck, (from doing lifesavers I guess) and makes my neck a dirty Grey, nearly black colour, now I have never heard any one else associated with bikes complain about this, and wondered if it was my helmet dye, or what, Imagine it's like you have been working down the pit, and not washed your neck in about 1 week, my worry is, now summer is coming, I can see this being more long term, but how can I stop it without spending cash that should be going toward me test on a new lid? That's not to say a new lid won't do it either..

Cheers Thumbs Up

Is it a cheap and nasty lid?

It certainly shouldnt happen, i'd suggest buying a buff or similar thin neck tube, becuase you should get one any way and it'll stop the problem Wink

Sounds like your lid is way too loose and not fitting correctly. Shocked

It was a £50 from infinity and fastens up ok, but I think it's when I do the lifesavers, will try a neck sleeve type thing what was mentioned above, Ta Thumbs Up

jacket collar is textile, made by "SMUG" and nicely sits in my collar bone area.. and the mark was middle of my neck, it washes off a quick scrub.
