Great service by bladerideressex
Even sorted me home delivery the same day
Couldn’t ask for anymore from a shop.
Quick review on the lid
Got the carbon one with a tinted visor
Visor tint/shade is very nice ,, not too dark
The viewing area is great very large. Proper nice and light was really surprised how light when wearing it.
For such a good price I’m well happy. Not crash tested yet
The only issue I found which isn’t really a massive problem for the cost is the visor didn’t have a tang on it I could find with gloves on quickly as my shoei did. But think just something il get used to.
Overal really happy and it looks proper good on the bike I think

Really glad your happy with the LS2 Arrow Race Carbon - its a good helmet and Ive been racing in one for the last 2 seasons as well as touring so I have probably racked up well over 10k miles in mine!

Worn in MotoGP by Baz and Hernandes and a great alternative to the major brands for those wanting a quality helmet at sensible money...  thumbsup

Happy to do a deal for any TDR members :)

I have the LS2 arrow r helmet, £120 from Hein Gericke, a better track helmet than my Arab or Shoei as the visor is huge & when laid on tank you don't have your view restricted
Great value

Medium fits fine for me m8, same as my Shoei & Arai, a little tight but it's new, I'm well chuffed with it 👍

I would definitely say the sizes come up small... most people take 1 size larger than their normal fitment - this is due partly to the fact that the Arrow comes in 4 shell sizes rather than 3 so they are not using thickness of padding to adjust the fit..
