As the title. Looking for some where that has a range of helmets in stock so I can go and try some on and see what I like.

J&S in Northwich has a large range of stock, and good prices from basic kit through to race leathers.

There's a George White store in Bolton, but it's full of old stock, tat, and general rubbish. But possibly a bargain if you aren't worried about buying stuff that's sat on a shelf for a few years.

in Manchester itself you have a Hein Gericke, but it's not exactly an exciting store... At the other end of the market there's the Dainese Store in the city centre..

Based in Ashton. They should also give you a discount if you ask.

Take a run out to Demon Tweeks (Wrexham) - have good range of both car and motorbike lids and sometimes have a few end of line ones on the shelf with hefty discounts - best combined with a run round the hills.

In that case J&S might not be a bad idea, as its pretty large by normal bike shop standards. Quite an extensive helmet range too. If its for a Caterham why not just take a little drive to Demon Thieves instead?
