Yeah didn't look it, and that would be my main reason for buying.... Careful chaps, there seems to be a few descrapancies in this 'style'....

Let's face it, in these days, shouldn't manufacturers be able to offer a double glazed option on their visors as a matter of course.
Pinlocks are OK but they are a compromise and some are awful (Shoei Hornet) and unusable due to a low top line, after spending £20 odd on one.

Is this what you're looking for Joel?

They have the "edge" [orange / black] in a XL and "adventure sport" [white] in a XL.

Apologies for the thread revival but did you have any feedback on this helmet John/anyone?

I fancy the adventure blue/white colour but see they don't do it in snow/Visio guard spec :(

If not any other advice on full face with visor mx style helmets, to replace my aging and heavy arai tour X?

Cheers,

Steve

The lid was ok, needs 'tuning' (visor cracking) for the lanes, as it steamed up a bit... But I ain't been out in a while, so prob due to lack of fitness...comfy though, the sun visor is cool, but of course the sun never shone... All in all ,better than my Airoh...
