Good biking clothes shop London?

[bex]

Hey there,

I need to buy some biking bits and pieces - mainly the basics as I sold all my stuff.

Went to Sondel today at Highbury/Islington but its seriously expensive. I need a womens leather jacket but not mega expensive say £150-£200 max. I'd order online but its too risky with sizes and being able to find the exact same one.

Also where has a good range of helmets? This I probably will buy online since they're so much cheaper that way, but need to try sizes in the store. Did this in Sondel today but I wasnt too excited by their range.

Where else is there thats got a good stock and not too much of a rip off?! Thanks! :look:

Try GirlsBike2 on Holloway road, its about a mile further up from Sondel on the same side of the road. Not sure how expansive their stock is as it looks like a small shop but should be able to at least give you some tips on where to get stuff.

Try any Hein Gericke, they seem to offer exceptional value.
There are several branches Infinty dotted around London too, which aren't too bad.
