Does that work for you? I always get my face shield so covered in rain I can barely see. Also, it is a cheap helmet, but the higher air humidity on rainy days means it fogs up from the inside far too easily.
- Nwallins 17y ago> I always get my face shield so covered in rain I can barely see What makes you think this will be any different? Trading one plastic shield for another doesn't seem to solve the problem.
- paulbaumgart 17y agoI guess just the fact that people wear it in front of their faces while walking/cycling and can maintain good visibility. I don't know enough about fluid mechanics to understand how 65 mph winds factor into that, though. :-)
- Nwallins 17y agoOn a motorcycle, wearing a helmet, at highway speeds, if the visibility problem is due to water droplet buildup on the face shield, you can simply turn your head to the side, and the wind resistance will push the droplets off to the side. One brief turn to each side every 30 seconds or so takes care of it. Now, if it's torrential, the problem is likely not 'static' interference but 'dynamic' instead -- not much to do but find a place to stop.
