Airoh in Auckland?

[grotto]

Time to get a full face helmet.
I want a good one, but not an expensive one.
I checked out the SHARP site, and Airoh rated highly.
Anyone know where I can try one in Auckland?
Shark and Nitro don't fit me very well.
Shoei do but are way too expensive for a 4 star.
cheers

I got one from SX in Hamilton (Vroom). Good fit, they also have range of visors, tinted etc. Don't only go by the Sharp rating tho, try a few and get one that fits well and has a good safety rating, get the best you can afford. The only thing with the Airoh I found that the chin bar isn't well padded and the airflow isn't great, but a decent helmet for the price. Sx do have a special on at the moment the Dragon has $150 off it i think @ $599, speedfires around $179. As usual with bike gear you get what you pay for with the quality i think

Me too, an S4. Had it for over two years, fits me well and I like it.

Don't see them of their website, wonder if they simply no longer stock them or they've discontinued them...

I got a Airoh Krypton recently from vroom in Chch. I asked them if it was "Shoei shaped" as in the fitting ... and they told me it was, so I ordered a Large. When I got it, it didn't fit. Too tight in the forehead. A nice helmet though, but not right for me, so I returned it.
I just bought an FFM Tour Pro 2 today, from Shaw's up here in Whangarei, and it fits fine. About the same price, and got a smoke coloured visor for $33, which isn't bad. I'm pleased with the FFM!

Here's a pic of the Krypton I ordered. They are a good quality helmet for the money .... if they fit !!
Best of luck in finding one. I'm not sure who else carries them apart from vroom ?
