NanLaew Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yes... but it was Mrs NL that picked up one for her and one for our 7 year-old. I will ask her where she got them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 OK, I hope you are familiar with the 'dark-side' as it's "close to a temple and near a 7-eleven"... seriously! At the staggered junction where Nongprue meets with K9 road and just north from the east-end of Nerplubwan (temple t-junction), there's a fairly new Mini Big-C. Almost directly opposite is the helmet shop, about 2 doors north of the 7-eleven which is at the K9 road junction (NE corner). For those with navigational abilities, try 12 deg 55' 37.4"N 100 deg 56' 11.2"E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Do you really think a 650 baht full face helmet will protect your kid in an accident ? They would never be allowed to use in Europe. A real helmet is several 1000 baht if you can find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fair point and one I have thought of so I tested out helmets by hitting them as hard as I can on the floor and they don't break or crack so that's about the best test I can think of, secondly God forbid an accident does happen in never goin that fast when the kids are on the bike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark131v Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 No but every little helps and a plastic half face pot is even worse so actually it makes the best of a shitty situation, finding anything at all even half decent in kid sizes is damn near impossible and if it is DOT certified so the US has deemed it fit for purpose 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
