Fantastic customer service, good selection and they sell chocolate that they make there too
I needed a new lid after Cadwell. I haven’t ever found anything that fitted my head other than a Suomy Vandal in XS and they don’t make them anymore.
So....initial visit and Dean got me to try a couple of things, nothing quite right but notes made and he ordered in sizes needed and different cheek pads etc. Went back today to try things and found something that was perfect!
Highly recommended

Didn't know they had one in cheddar,
Always hacked across to west bay one.
Gives me an excuse to get on and ride.
Seems like good customer service there also.
(But trust shammy to be an *unique* customer)
I prefer ed unique to awkward

Totally agree, top service every time. I've got two helmets from them. One from west bay and my second at NEC.
always helpful and happy to go that extra mile to ensure you have the right stuff.

The one at Westbay gave me a really good tip, don't try on the display helmets just to get a sizing as generally the display ones have been stretched to buggery by all the previous try ons.
