I have seen them and some others on ebay but I am really after cheap.. we are going to use it one time and thats it.. so it doesnt have to last a million years either..
I am hopeing to find one around the 20£ mark... I wish I bought some at bmf earlier this year.. but I didnt think.. always the way really.

And their exceptionally shite, guy at work bought a pair £25, their VOX (voice operated) so the wind noise in the helmet caused them to be activated constantly, only a single mobile phone type earpiece, over 30mph you couldnt hear a thing you get what you pay for in this case m8y

The Lidl Motorbike specific ones do come with a PTT button, so you do have the option not to use VOX. They're not fantastic, but for the price they'll do.... They come with batteries and a mains charger, headset, PTT and a supposed "noise cancelling" mic. At slower speeds they're fine as most of these cheaper options are - fine for use when stopped or at junctions/in town, but not on the open road. Got one for my son to put in his helmet. Cheaper than another Autocom loom and whilst I'm on bike I use my bike-bike radio/Autocom to talk to him. He doesn't need to be wired to the bike to talk to me.... can't hear him too well at speed though....... For under the £20 that they were, they do fine..... to him it's a toy too.
