Where to buy gear?

I did a search and only found a few random threads that really didn’t answer my question so…

Where should I go to buy riding gear around here? (WNY) Or should I just go somewhere to try stuff on and then order it online? I here newenough.com has the best prices.

Also, what brands makes the best stuff? I don’t want to end up buying some overpriced crap.

Thanks.

just go into a berts, hamburg honda, weaver’s, or where-ever and check sizes.

then id say order offline because its usually cheaper.

I just bought a joe rocket jacket and HJC helmet size medium and they both fit fine.

Im about 5’8" 150lbs. Helmet fits great but the jacket is a touch long.I just tighten up the velcrow straps at my wrists and it fits great then.

I got mine at cost through my gf so i couldnt help you on where to buy.Just buy the shit online
