Hi guy's and lasses,
I know i dont post in this section very much but i need some help to get Luke (my lad 6 year old, 53 cm around his head) a white full face helmet. i dont know much about them or where to get one from. I was wondering if anyone had one or could tell me.
I have just got him a redline Mini as his existing bike was holding him back it was a 16" thing.

He is trying really hard, the helmet in the pic is a borrowed one. He can get around the majority of the new derby track, on his existing bike so when he is used to his new bike he should fly round on a 20" mini.
I have not got mega pennies at the mo, so if they dont cost to much i would like to get him some pants and top etc. so if any one has something suitable give me a shout a top will do for starters :).
Thanks for your help Luke and Steve :daumenhoch:

What size is he, might have a blue top as our club has just got new tops.

With regards to the helmet, get along to a MX shop and try them on if you can, the only thing with MX helmets is the weight and the heat. Dont see many cheap BMX/MTB helmets for kids.

Some do have padded elbows, but to be honest you are best off with some proper elbow pads.
