As much as I love the sun shining, I have a problem, as sometimes I can’t see anything when riding, I can’t fit my sunglasses under the helmet, I don’t want a tinted visor as I ride when it’s dark and I can’t always keep it open when it rains…
Any ideas…?
Thank you,
y.
Buy new sunglasses or carry around a clear visor?
i carry a clear visor with me.
or get a tinted pinlock insert and just remove it when it gets dark
depending on what helmet you got, get a clear & a tinted pinlock. then you can change from clear pinlock to tinted.
the benefit of this compared to a whole tinted visor is that the tinted pinlock is much smaller and can fit in a backpack or even under the seat!
Caberg crash helmet with built in flip down sun visor
Thank you, I hoped there is something I could add underneath my visor (or on top), like a smaller tinted visor, but something which stays there and I don’t have to remove/attach it every time
I always carry a clear visor around with me…
some ppl add tape a stip on the top bit of the visor that creates a line of shade…
not tried it as a)dont want to stick anything on my visor
b)may restrict vision
c) doesnt look very nice
ah, ok, so I wont do that then…Let me just google the pinlock… (I bet my helmet its not suitable…)
pretty sure you can get a reactive pinlock thats clear at night, and tints when its bright, like the glasses you can get
there is but its not made by pinlock. its called fogcity hyperoptics… but i never found that it goes dark enough
hmm, can’t find anything on the helmet which says what model it is, and it seems like I should know it as there are different pinlocks for different helmets…
does anybody make sun reactive visors ? I cant find any on the net.
seems like it would be a popular buy
not that i know of
you can buy diy sets where you drill your own holes…

I still have a prototype reactive visor from when I used to do some consultative work for Everoak before they went bust.
It actually worked very well, but the construction and materials made it very expensive, and by expensive I mean several hundreds of pounds, although this cost would have dropped substantial had it gone into production.
Thank you very much to all of you 
Smiled - it’s KBC (no idea what model, either it doesn’t say, either I’m not very bright…)
I found this: http://www.racevisors.co.uk/category/kbc-pinlock-inserts-antifog
but I’m not sure whether it would be ok to my (cheap…) model…
Panagiotis, I think I would only make a damage to my helmet if I tried drilling holes
T.C - I’m on a tight budget…
post a pic of it… we might recognise it!
