i only bought budget boots once,,never again.
Me , wanting good products at discount turn to Ebay and buy second hand,,,some good deals out there for top quality,might be a couple of years old,but if they are good then who's to know
My current Sidi boots £45
-
i usually phail at boots cos wide feet so tcx or have to find proper leather
anything cheaper or italian are too skinny sidi/diadora
bit like lids - cheaper ones have small shells so arai or shoei only - wanted rossi agv for years but they dont do xxxl :D
-
MCN did a review of the Aldi bike kit - came out very well.
Already fully kitted out, but might buy some extra's there, in case I need a spare set one day!
-
I'm definitely popping over to my local ALDI on Thursday as I'm interested that Air Compressor and tools :) Might head back over on Sunday to check out some of the stuff but there isn't anything that I specifically need at the moment in the way of bike gear
-
I don't normally let what I do and don't need stop me buying stuff. The only thing I may need is more space lol
-
The socks are epic :)
-

I had one for a couple of years in the past. Good quality though these seem a different make/model. I bust my zip stuffing it to the gills - It wasn't the bags fault :b

Sold out within 24 hrs.

Took a walk to my nearest one this morning, got two pairs of socks, set of compression layers and a set of thermals, will see how they last.
Plenty of people buying, not many jackets and trousers, plenty of boots but seemed to be mostly small sizes.
-
Just been to Aldi, got 2 new large bike covers and a new wind proof neck thingy. I wanted to get another wind proof thermal long johns and top but the wife stopped me coz I've already got a set. Must go on my own next time.
-
Got two pair of socks, would highly recommend them to anyone. Also got one of them neck guards, seems good quality but time will tell !!
-
Okay not ALDI , got this in LIDL yesterday. A lot of people say would not buy a cheap helmet!!!!!!!! ah! why not some of the big players the likes of ARAI are not what they try and make themselves out to be.
ARAI Condor 2** rating £240 a Duchinni D832 £59.99 gets a 5*****rating. There is only one full face helmet in the ARAI range gets a 5*****rating the GP5X @£250.00 source from the UK Gov Sharp .com site.
Okay the Crivit helmet has not been tested by Sharp but it has an EU rating ECE-R 22.05
Also I am of the opinion if a German company is marketing it cannot be all bad.
The helmet looks well made comes with a 3 year warranty so time will tell. The Thermals I have had before so they are decent kit.
Thought the photo would have been there click on the link.

ECE-R 22.05 (reg22) is the current highest standard for motorcycle helmets
[/size]
[/size]As a manager of a QA test workshop I was a bit perplexed by the sharp test using anvils and drop jigs
all a bit too static IMHO
-
got a pair size 11 boots seem ok, at £30 if they last a couple of years it's good value?
-
Anyone tried the Kevlar Jeans? there is a local store near me, thinking of popping up there to have a look.
@Woodzey80, what are the socks like? do they sag under the heal of your foot..?
-
Socks are really good, nice tight fit but comfy & no sagging.
I've got a pair of the Kevlar jeans also & again there spot on, I'm into my second year with them & no defects what so ever.
