funlovinkid Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 After doing some searching here, I found a few articles on this subject, but they're very outdated. Can anyone share information about good places to buy this stuff? At a minimum, I'm interested in an armored mesh jacket, and a helmet, but I might go for pants and boots as well. Thanks in advance for any feedback or suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wangsuda Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I've used both of these to get protective gear and accessories: http://www.paddock.co.th/ http://www.pandarider.com/Panda/promotion.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Chi Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 +1 for Paddock Haven't been inside Panda Rider. Was in Paddock last week picking up a pair of new boots. Good range of products. Decent prices. And good service. Easy to get to as well if using the MRT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatteoBassini Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 If you can't find what you're looking for at Paddock or Panda Rider you can also check Riders Outlet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GARYZX6R Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I get mine from 320 sp. Good prices good choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wangsuda Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I get mine from 320 sp. Good prices good choices. 320 is good too. I purchased some shocks from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBike Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 +1 for Paddock, has a good selection of both jackets and helmets. Be strong with the staff though, I found that they hounded me around the shop a little. Not sure if this is usual procedure, maybe because I went into the store late in the evening and they wanted to go home. Who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namplik Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) Bought my Real helmet at 320sp a few weeks back, pretty good selection there. https://goo.gl/maps/BfsrUzJvxiK2 I went with the BTS to Wongwian Yai and walked down to the big roundabout where the King Thaksin monument are.

dunks Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 You might also try Kamixshop.com bkkrider.com and also the Dainese shop near CDC in lad phrao that has some really good quality but higher priced gear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonmarleesco Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I thought t-shirt, holed jeans and flip-flops was the protective clothing, here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLW Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 320 sp is a good one. Broad assortment and good value Bought me helmet there. After it got stolen and I wanted to have the same model I tried auto2speed near Golden Mount. Also not bad but except for the helmet I think it's overpriced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyfez Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 There are a couple of nice shops, next to each other, but I don't believe they are related in Ratchadaphisek Road. The easiest way to describe the location is on the west side of Ratchada as you walk, heading north from the Pracha Songkhro junction at Huay Kwang. Or if you prefer; about half way between The Cultural Centre, and Huay Kwang MRT stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johpa Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I thought t-shirt, holed jeans and flip-flops was the protective clothing, here. Oh please, I do wear sandals most of the time and not flip-flops. And I even put on some shoes when riding off the pavement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hclay Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I currently live in China but will be coming to Thailand Bangkok round bout Feb 6th staying for a week, and would like to visit some local bike shops (crusers, choppers HD's), kustom kulture as well as any event that might be held in the country during that week, and any info will be appreciated.

Bear0Mack Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I would highly recommend VNP Racing at the 4 way intersection of Nong Yai for helmets. https://goo.gl/maps/EaHb91oNGBu They have amazing prices and great service. I've been there multiple times. You can also get various accessories, shocks, and vanity modifications. My favourite day is the large JNTAN cargo box and rack for just THB 2000. It can hold 7KG.

iBike Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Visiting 320sp tomorrow, the safetywear I am buying is almost half the price of the same model in Paddock !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macknife Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Visiting 320sp tomorrow, the safetywear I am buying is almost half the price of the same model in Paddock !! Make sure to ask them if it's real or not. Some of their stuff are copies. They will usually tell the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBike Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Ah okay, thanks for the heads up. Good copies? IE would I know the difference by looking at them? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol You may or may not know the difference, but the road you are sliding down(in an off) cares not one jot how good the copy looks, as it will show the quality of fabric and stitching no mercy.

iBike Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Yeah wouldn't want to buy copies. Been to 320, they look pretty good but I'm back in paddock buying a real one. The staff in 320 told me everything is copied (jackets) don't know about the helmets etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear0Mack Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I used a 320sp jacket in a crash and it worked very well. I would definitely recommend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBike Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 For certain items, I'm a firm believer of the saying 'reassuringly expensive'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
