Hi folks, wanted to post this in the track forum but don't have enough posts or access, anyway since there are many trackies on here... I've signed up for some DE's and want to invest in my first helmet. I know there are many online shops but understanding that fit is very important, I would like to find a nearby shop with a decent selection to try on. Any recommendations for shops in or near Philadelphia, PA? According to Mapquest, Stable Energies in NJ is a 2.5 hr drive for me.
Thanks in advance,
-e.

Try Dougherty's in West Chester. I "think" they sell and have helmets on hand to try on.

 

^ Meh...

I met up with Eric Andes who runs Go Fast Be Safe Racing. He lives in Delaware and has a mobile race-gear business. He came up to meet me with an SUV full of helmets (his inventory is huge, he had over 20 just in my size alone). I got to try on more than I needed, and he really knew how to choose the best fit. His prices were also very good.

If you're in the area this is how to MUST buy a helmet. I ended up being a "custom" size, which means I was between two "whole" sizes... I would have definitely ordered incorrectly on the internet or compromised at a shop with a smaller selection.
