Gear for Enduro 2.0

Not sure on pricing for the Leatt yet...but I doubt it'll come in under 4.5k

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

Is the mongo helmet cheaper than the leatt?

No. Maybe. Depends.

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

Mongo is EUR259. Which, If there are no duties, is just over 4k. So incl shipping and stuff... Around the same.

 

If there are duties it's a whole different story

[V12man]

incorrect: only fireman's, miners/industrial use helmets are duty free. Check the latest schedule. You should get nailed 25% for any other helmet.

Lexx can confirm.

There was another section I saw it in- just generic safety equipment- that's the code I used - got the supplier to add it to the shipping docs... it worked... not sure if it was 100% correct....

[V12man]

Yeah honestly it'll come down to which is more affordable when I can buy

I handled a demo Leatt this weekend- but they are apparently not shipping yet - later this month maybe - still a nice looking toy

hehehe, interesting 'loophole'. But I think its not correct. That tariff code i posted earlier falls under safety equipment, but it clearly delineates between what is tariff free and what isn't. Interested to see what code you felt was appropriate and from which schedule you were working from.

I can't find my original tariff sheet - but looking at the latest I would probably have used

 

6506.10.90

 

And came from Germany (so the EU tariff would apply I guess)

What's the fit like?

[Capricorn]

What's the fit like?

 

Sizing is spot on, with good adjustability via Giro's Roc-Loc Air DH mouthful of a retention system. The cheek pads provide for a pretty snug fit. From the little riding with it i've done, it didn't feel warmer than the TLD drone, despite providing more wrap-around coverage. Plenty more riding to be done in much warmer weather. I'll knock out a review then.

Say good buy to hefty servicing of your hydraulic dropper

Erm... no. That just replaces the easy-to-do-at-home remote bleed. The rest of the post still needs to be looked after.

 

This system does give you a much wider choice of levers though.
