Anyone know of any bike shops (online or otherwise) that stock inserts and cheek pads etc for Suomy helmets?

I've found a supplier in the states but i'd rather buy from the UK and suomy themselves are useless at providing info!!

I can probably source some for you if your still struggling to find any? A little while ago Suomy kinda died off in the UK. However now there is a new supplier that may be able to help.

Basically anyone who deals with TranAm now can get hold of Suomy helmets, so I would imagine that would include some spares too.

Let me know, I can check at work.

Watching this post with hope

Suomy didnt die off. They used to be part of Motrax' distribution setup, however FT (who own Motrax) have had numerous problems in the last 5 years and as a result, ditched Suomy when they made some cut backs a while ago.

Anyway, since then no one has taken on the Suomy lines, until this year.

So like I said, not sure what is and isnt available - but I currently own a Spec 1 R - so also have a vested interest in finding this all out Smile

Will get back to you all tomorow, assuming I remember to find out tomorow at work! lol
