Opinions on gear

[Lou Girardin]

Which shops are you price checking and finding the best deals in?

I've still to purchase a kit but find everything so expensive and beyond budget, how depressing.

Does anybody know where in Chch they sell second hand, not crashed, quality bike gear?

2nd hand textile carries the risk of not knowing if it leaks until it's too late.

Well I found HJC CL-14s today at Eric Woods for $199 while looking at jackets. I had previously not been there since most their stuff is expensive.
Nitros at Street and Sport for $150, or leather direct for $199 (311-v and 510-v)
I've had a look around at second-hand gear at the local pawn shops and cash converters, but haven't found much, and what I have found has been really over priced.

Check out all the stores atm thou, most have specials going.

Anyone got an opinion on Wintex gear? I was looking at this (rather ugly, but new) set. Does anyone know where I could check sizings out?
