Seen a few crackers at J&S Filton earlier today. They're selling duchinni's with bluetooth module fitted for 169. flip lids with sun visor.
they also sell the duchinni full face with bluetooth integrated for 139. they're probably cheaper again on ebay as they have they're own shop there.

In my opinion, it's ok everyone saying Arai / Shoei / Craft / HJC etc etc are the best, but you would be wise to go down to J&S or local bike shop and try them on, i've now come to realise that no matter how amazing the deal is on an Arai lid - i've just not got an Arai shaped head !!!!!

(P.s i've got a HJC HQ-1 and think it's the mutt's nutts, light, comfy, looks decent, and i think it's actually carbon fibre - not just a carbon fibre looki-like)

+1 for this. I bought the Elbowz II a couple days ago from that site. Only £100 with 2 visors. Clear and smoked.

Went to Hein Gericke to try it on and even the basic one is £150 in there so definatley a bargain.

Got a HJC Infinity lid with the sun visor built in and anti fog mask for £100. Its last years model but was £160 odd then. They stock them at George Whites. Great lid IMO

I've got a HJC IS-16 in matt black. Has an internal visor too, although it's not actually that dark.

Good lid though. They're around £130 odd normally, but I think I paid about £120 as I got a bit of a discount.
