    I plan on embarking on a 16 day bike ride from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh city in December. This is a guided and supported tour. I already have a bike rental squared away with the touring company, but will still need additional bike gear which at the bare minimum includes a helmet. Are there stores in Hanoi that will sell helmets that fit larger heads? What about seat posts and bike gloves? Please advise!

    Giant Bicycles manufactures helmets and their vietnam distributor is:
