New helmet additions to GetGeared range

We've added the fantastic Nexx and Momo helmets to our range! 

Plenty of choice here- both full and open face helmets. Very well made, very stylish. These brands have attracted a lot of attention in particular from Scooter owners, a sector in massive growth according to industry journal British Dealer News.

Please read the information and have a browse at the links- there are some awesome designs- right through from Hard-core race helmets to beautiful scooter lids.

Nexx:

These guys make the Hugo Boss range! Portuguese manufactured open and full faced helmets, starting from just £99. They are getting amazing reviews in the biking press- here's the thoughts of MCN's Dan Aspel, the Motorcycle News test rider and journalist on the ACU Gold approved Nexx XR1R Carbon Helmet (Pictured below) "Light in weight, ventilation that is effective, quiet inside even at motorway speeds and a good broad field of vision. With that, this style made its name. Exceptionally good value and exceptionally good lid!"

Nexx XR1R Carbon Helmet- MCN's Dan Aspel loved it!- It's less than £300 as well.

Momo:


Remember the Italian brand Momo- famous for Steering wheels and alloy wheels? Yes, it's them. They've pulled no punches either with their helmets, which are heaving with detail and quality-  The ingredients are the best available such as the aircraft-grade carbon visor frame or the leather covering that is using the same quality leather as Ferrari steering wheels.

The 'fighter pilot' look is getting hugely popular- just have a browse at the range. They really do take helmet design to the next level.

The Momo Fighter in Matt Black- Italian styling for just £179.99
