Cant say Ive actually ever used any of this before, rather using MX gear instead. Managed to grab some spidi gear on tardme. But alas the pants where somewhat smaller than advertised and I cannot fit em. Ideally Id really like to get some Spidi pants to go with the jacket as the dude that sold them to me has given me the option of returning it all or just the pants. Ive been searching the internet for the last hour on google for places that sell spidi enduro gear and have come up with a big blank. The closest I can find is some shift pants that are semi similar. At this rate I'm going to end up with the Spidi jacket with my draggin jeans. Id like a pair of pants like the one that I currently have but its too small. Looks like it'd even be good to wear on the sprot bike. Anyone know where they sell Spidi enduro gear from. I'll be stopping in on bike shops between here and AKL tomorrow, so will be asking the same sort of questions.

Searched the Spidi website and I now knwo what it is that Im after. Now I just need to find someone who will get it in for me...

aaaahhhh the joys of buying that sort of thing on trademe....not recommended unless you've already tried it on elsewhere first!

A quick surf of the Spidi website (http://www.spidi.com)revealed their dealer in NZ (or so they say) is right in your neck of the woods:

EUROBIKE WHOLESALE LTD
58 LEACH STREET
4079 NEW PLYMOUTH
Phone: +64-67586798
e-mail: eurobike@xtra.co.nz
http://www.eurobike.co.nz

Just looked in a Kiwi Rider mag at the usual Spidi full page ad, and Eurobike is listed as the distributor. Lists New Plymouth Motorcycle Centre and Image Motocycles in the naki as retailers, so give them a bell.

Good luck

Turns out the above supplies the local dealers only. I fortunately realised this prior to actually going in and ended u at my local instead. Turns out the wholesale suppliers don't like people coming in off the street trying to buy ear. Never the less, I have scored matching pants that go with the jacket, but in the correct size. After finding out how much the gear actually costs, Im pleased I started on tardme....

Glad to hear you got the trews. Hope you can get money back off the wrong-sized ones on tardme or something.

The dude that I brought them from is a bloody good bugger and has agreed to refund me part of the price and Im sending them back to him and keeping the jacket. I'm on A/L next week and intend on using this gear daily...
