I have bought one or two odd bits n bobs from Banggood (ie an 8gb usb stick that can plug into an I phone 6 and a PC) and they e-mail offers about once a week and this was on this weeks email.

To be honest - I wasn't seeing Hillary as being a viable option either, but hey - That is not my circus and they are not my monkeys.

Hmmmmm

Not sure about the BSI carrying out two impact tests on the same helmet?? The first impact knocked a big chunk out of the shell so surprise, surprise, it split in half during the second test. Doh!

Agree. Especially the cutting out the square of visor

It's the BSI for gods sake. Have they not devised a better way of cutting a square from a visor other than a hacksaw, a vice and a spare pair of hands
