Albion helmet padding
« on: February 15, 2022, 01:25:55 PM »
I'm looking to revive and refurb my Albion Club Elite helmet for the new season. Most pressingly I need new foam inserts for inside the helmet, does anyone know where I can get some?

I'm also looking for new ear pads and possibly a titanium grill for it. I've spent a while searching online and drawn a blank so all leads welcome. Thanks!

ive got shed loads of coloured (red/grey and black versions from memory) ear pads for the grille if it's the type that was on the club mk2 model like the link below?

I need to look for padding too as I  know a few members have asked previously and I had a box of that too that I need to locate in the "archives" of my storage unit! Failing that I've got foam padding sets that I use on my own helmets that fit, they come in a pack that included 3 different thicknesses.

Yes that's the one! I will gladly take a pair of the red ones off your hands please.

Would also really appreciate if you managed to find some of the padding - I'm sure yours would do the job fine but the main reason I like this helmet so much is the ventilation so I'd like to be able to keep the air holes clear.

Do you want to PM me payment details?

@Duck Duck Mongoose after a good rummage I’ve found the below, the padding is 10mm thick and comes in a pack of 3. It came from the people who made Albion helmets back then.

Nice one, thank you. Padding looks a different shape to mine but I'll give it a go.

I will PM you my address, do you want to respond to that with how I can send payment? Thanks again, I appreciate the effort you've gone to
