Hi everyone and thank to those who run this site
We have hand held CB radios that have excellent range and would like to be able to use these on the bikes. The hand-held radios clip to the person and they each feature PTT. does anyone know of a fairly cheap way to get hold of press on microphones and speakers for helmets. The prices I've seen have been £50 each set or more.

what sort of plug goes into the radio ? as me and dad have got mics and speakers in our helets

2.5 and 3.5mm it's for the midland GXT600
I forgot this was one big site....

I'd suggest Intaride, but you're going to be over £50 for the kit you need.

It might be worth paying the money though because the quality of the noise cancelling mic will make a big difference to how much use you get from the radios.

i will ask dad where he got ours from as they had one's like ours but for diffrent hand sets aswell

Oxford do them as well as some radio shops just google bike to bike coms, prices are usually start about £20. with a variety of connections
Have used them in the past but find the ptt a bit of a hassle to fit and too many wires they work fine though.
