Troy Lee D2 carbon helmet - replacement peaks?

[rico]

Nose-dived a road jump today at Ludlow, went over bars, face planted etc etc...

End result is a broken peak on my Troy Lee

Tried the normal Wiggle, Chain Reaction Cycles etc... anyone know the best place to buy a replacement? All my local bike shops annoy me so would prefer to buy online.

Thanks

Edited to add - I know you can easily get the chrome ones but they look pants on a white helmet. Can I get the original one from:

Try contacting Fishers who are the UK distributer of TLD gear.

I think you'll struggle though as that is a year or so old design now. Hope you do find one though.

Another option might be to contact Simon Paton who runs the shop on descent-world.co.uk

Failing that, I reckon ebay will be your best bet

Spray one matt black for a carbon look.

Yeah... thats another option. I'd prefer to get the white flames continued though.

I love the track at Ludlow. Very fast

Bit of a shame about the crash, but had a spare wheel so swapped it over and went for another 4 runs. Gotta love uplift days

Just an update on this. Fishers are struggling to get Troy Lee to send them ANY spares at the moment which sucks.

I'm looking into getting a black one (which is a rubbery type and a bit more flexible than plastic) and getting a mate to paint it.

If anyone wants a custom painted helmet, give Rich a call - www.richartconcepts.co.uk/

I have a full face bell lid, which is as light as the specialized £150 lid, but the bell is only £50. Looks cool, so may be an option to the lack of spares.

My helmet is fine. I'm just a ponce when it comes to asthetics so want to replace my slightly cracked visor. I could run it visorless but that looks pants.
