fuck cycle gear that place is a shit hole!With some real dumb ppl working for them

9/28/2006 1:37:23 PM

^any other places you'd recommend?

9/28/2006 1:38:29 PM

I always got my helments from online but if you dont know helment companys sizing it is hard to find out if they will fit right. Creigslist always has a bunch of helment for cheap you could go tey it on and if you liked it prolly get it for half the price or something.

you want to give me specific example of why that place is a "shit hole"?

I could possibly help improve the situation if I have more information. It is knowledge within the company that that location is not doing as well as the rest.
I was the person who originally photographed that location for the realestate company. I was also the person who hung all the banners pre-opening and put out the original applications to the store.

^^i wanted to buy it online but i kinda waited until last minute and plus as you say, i don't know helmet sizes. I know my hat size is usually 7 1/8 which would = a medium in some brands but i would still ike to try it first.

Well i mean the ppl there are fuckin stupid and know jack shit about bikes! They dont carry much on hand which they should. I mean I went in there with Igor and looking for a handle bar clip on for a honda hawk When the dumb ass has one of his own setting out side and he had no ideal what we where even talking about. Like WTF then he is like it will be like 3 days to get it in. A part like that which will fit alot of other bike besides a Hawk should be in stock. but we just rolled down the road to toxic they had one for 10 buck when cycle gear had to wait 3 days and wanted 29.99!

most manufacturers have sizing charts online, just measure the circumfrance of your melon and if you are in between, go 1 size up

i'd probably go one size down...it'll break in and conform to your head...you don't want it to be too lose after that (i usually get my helmets to fit slightly uncomfortably tight at first. they loosen up, and then they're good).
