210 Shells - What are the options?

[Skye]

I have used my 210 for 3 meetings now and it is already showing small splits in either side of the shell near the gearbox. It has still got plenty of life left in it yet but I am already thinking of getting the next one in ready.

I have seen several people have their shells split along the entire length of the side as well so am reluctant to buy a replacement kit shell.

So what are the option shells out there?

I know its a marmite thing, but I actually quite like the JConcepts shell, but see that there is no longer a JC UK distributor. If I order this from the US how much will it cost? Will there be any customs charges?

That I know of there is also the Bugle shell and the Pulse shell, are there any others that I have missed?

To be honest, I would prefer a UK seller/distributor just for the ease of ordering and reduced shipping. But if the right shell for me is out there and overseas then so be it.....

So what are my options?

Thanks for all the replies. I have opted for one of Harlows this time, but I do like the look of that Proline one as well so might get one of those in the future.....
