I can see the attraction of tank bags etc, but would you really feel safe in a twenty quid helmet?

well thats the one thing i wouldnt get from there, but if it was a branded helmet cheap then i would.

Went up there this morning, all the stuff is OK for the money.

The wind stopper stuff particularly (socks/balaclavas/kidney belts) is good stuff at a great price.

The locks looked a little weak, but hey, for the price, brilliant, I just wouldn't rely on them alone.

Worth a visit anyway.

got a tank bag, chain,tent and intercom. They had rain suits and boots also aswell as socks. They didnt have any disk locks.

The chain is abit week but its worth £9 and its just something extra to protect your bike.

Getting confused I popped into Aldi this lunchtime as I hadn't realised that Lidl and Aldi was different :loopy:
to see this cheap gear. And there wasn't any, although the big posters on the window say they are having motorcycle gear on the 21st of April, and it looks as if it's the same range of stuff at the same price

If I were to use some it would be more as a deterrant.

My ground anchor, chain and lock cost me £240 and is unbreakable without alot of effort and noise.

The chain and lock I can use anywhere.

Something extra, sure.

Would not trust it though, nor the helmet like Toby says.
