MET Warranty

[mtbman]

As I'm sure you all know by now I broke my lid on the forum ride this week. After speaking to my LBS they suggested I spoke to the UK distributor for MET (Fisher Outdoor Leisure), as they may offer a discounted replacement.

This is what they said.

As long as the helmet is less than three years old, I can tell them where I purchased it and I send them the broken one they will replace it for £53.98. Which I think is bloomin marvelous seeing as the MET Parachute retails at £115 (Cheapest I've found on the net was £75).

All in all a big thumbs up to the guys at MET. Not just for saving my skull but also for saving me some pennies ;D ;D ;D ;D

Some pic's of the damaged lid






I've still got a flippin headache, but at least it did it's job.

Let it be a lesson to all you guys who think its cool not to wear a lid

Good point on using lid mate, its pics like these that re-enforce the wearing a lid policy. Imagine what would have happened to ya head without a helmet, probably a trip in an ambulance and maybe worse.

Fair play to met as well, big thumbs up.

Who do you think you are? Barry Scott?

Bang! And it's gone! ;D

You'll get a few more rides out of that one until your new one arrives ;D ;D ;D

Looking at that you were very lucky there mate.

I wonder if other lid makers do the same warranty??

[xybadog]

I dunno what your moaning about. Bit of duck tape and a wipe over with a baby wipe, it'll last you for years.

[martinw]

Duck tape..... Baby wipes?

My new Helmet arrived today



No your eyes are not deceiving you there are two helmets. The kind people at MET put a Stradivarius 199 helmet in the box as well. According to the paper work F.O.C - Happy Days ;D ;D ;D Wiggle are knocking these out for £105.

So any roadies out there who want a super light race lid for a knock down price give me a shout.

Shame some of the other manufacturers don't value their customers in the way that MET obviously do. After all there wasn't a fault with the helmet it did its job and saved my skull and now its saved me some pennies - Result
