I paid £17 for this lid in the sports direct sale.

Absolutely don't do this but...







At 660 gramms this is what masuri could and should have done (no this isn't compliant now, but it is light and better than the old style lid.

I have removed the original grille and put one an old style titanium grille. The gap here is 55mm but I could put it to 45 mm.

Once the cardboard, unused prams and confiscated toys are removed there isn't much in my garage other than cricket and sports equipment and craft stuff for the kids... I think...

It took him an age to get rid of the stink of their BS.

Just a quick update to this post, I spoke to a very friendly guy from Masuri about getting a ti grille that is from the new range to fit this lid.

Effectively the answer is I would have to buy a new lid as the sports direct lids are custom for them and not the same as other models so the grilles won't fit.

Still it was very good of them to return my email with a call and we had a good chat.

I feel if we have these regulations there for safety we shouldnt as a country be selling anything without it passing... (yes i understand the dark matter of what is compliant and what is actually tested). Seems like we are just investing in what basically is allowing a plumber to do an electricians job.

So, Masuri helmets with adjustable grills were not safe? I love your sense of humor. :D

Yes, with some success, not least as I wasn't hit on the head...

Ah, the best kind of helmet that is - one you don't get hit while wearing!
