Just got back from Lidl who have quite a bit of motorcycle gear & accessories for ridiculously cheap prices.
Bike covers, boots, jackets, trousers, helmets, first aid kits, knee warmers, hoods, intercoms, disk locks & other stuff
Not known makes, but might help someone who's biking on a budget :dance:

I just bought a jacket and protective trousers, £50 and £40 respectively.
Sizes are European - I'm 5'11", 34" waist, and "large" 52/54 fits well, in case this helps anyone.
Thanks OP, a good deal.
They have helmets there too, but £20 / £25 for a helmet doesn't seem right (!), and they were out of Large full face helmets anyway.But the banks are made of marble,
With a guard at every door,
And the vaults are stuffed with silver,
That the farmer sweated for.0 -

Buying cheap helmets can cost you your life.
Obviously this doesn't apply to socks and bike covers which are usually very good value.0 -
Thanks peggydoodaa. I went today and got a helmet, gloves, boots and spine guard. The helmet meets ECE-R 22.05 and it is from Germany."This time next year we'll be millionaires" Derek 'Del Boy' Trotter0
