MET
SELLING DIRECT to the retailer in the UK, MET has set up a UK warehouse to quickly service the needs of the dealer here. For 2014, the £129.99
Parabellum is the brand's pick of the bunch. Designed for all mountain use, this helmet takes safety to the next level and offers plenty of coverage for such a feather- weight. Its large visor on the front characterizes the new Parabellum just as the entanglement of the two shells clearly visible at the rear. The Homothethic Embedded Skeleton spreads the pressure built up by compression at the impact point, and thus dissipates the force of impact over the whole shell.

TSG PROTECTIVE gear continues to provide some of the best solutions available for the customers regularly leaving the ground on their bikes.

LAST YEAR BBB introduced the Varallo helmet to the market. For customers seeking a solid trail lid that provides maximum protection without sacrificing airflow or weight, it's certainly worth consideration. With input from BBB-sponsored riders, the label created an evolutionary design, the Nerone, retailing at £69.95. The feedback resulted in a longer peak that could be adjusted for a clearer visibility and custom fit. The new adjustable visor integrates more fluently with the entire helmet. Riders also bugs be kept out, so BBB added anti-insect mesh in the major vents. To top it off, the brand has added its new Tri-Fit 4.0 closure system for the ultimate in fit and stability on the

THIS SPRING Nutcase launches the Gen3, the much-anticipated third evolution of the brand’s iconic street helmet, specifically for cyclists. The Gen3 Street helmet combines all the tongue- in-cheek graphics, pop color and cool design features of previous lines, and adds a redesigned fit, clever details and smart tweaks. An evolved ABS shell offers a more
head-hugging, contoured fit, and the EPS insert provides improved comfort on even the warmest days with additional ventilation channels. Extra grooves in the upper, non-visible part of the EPS insert create a crumple zone that helps disperse energy of impact. Each helmet also comes with a snap-in, removable visor for year round sun and rain protection on the road, the signature Nutcase anti-
pinch, magnetic buckle for easy, one- handed operation and a removable spin- dial fit system for an exact, individual and comfy fit. The Gen3 helmet offers 360- degree reflectivity thanks to reflective straps, spin dial and logos on the front and back of every helmet. 01803 558885
