Hi, I'm looking for a bike shop in central London that has a good range of helmets to try on. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Yep, Condor has a good few higher end helmets, although they're doing the place up at the moment so not sure how much space they have.

    +1 - Condor. The older guy who works in there has a knack to assess your head shape/ size and make pretty good suggestions!

    Specialized helmets are pretty good. You could try finding a Specialized dealer.

    Thanks, made my way over to Condor on Saturday and the old(er) guy really did do a proper fitting job so I got one that fits nicely. My only mistake was taking my girlfriend and sister along who were really annoying the whole time - however the old(er) guy was suitably rude to them, which was quite funny.

    Carl is very good, and knows his stuff. He will defend the cyclist's choice of apparel too obviously.
