Never had an accident yet as I drive a bike the way I drove a Navy Cruiser & Amphib Helo Carrier.
When I moved to Ohio (optional use), I put on the bucket perhaps 5% of the time. Not one of the ABATE people, but in 40 years of riding, I only wore a bucket for first 10 yrs in Virginia (mandatory) when stationed there. There are newer formulations of transition lens that claim to darken, at least moderately, in a car or behind a helmet shield.
#Spectacle helmet windows
In a car the windows block the ultraviolet light so my glasses don't darken any at all. Mine get as dark, or darker, than any clip-on sunglasses I've ever used, even with my helmet on, but I ride with the visor open. Shade does not hinder the darkening process. They darken due to ultraviolet light, not ordinary visible light, whether the light is direct or indirect scattered. I've been wearing self darkening lens for probably 50 years now. Also totally useless most of the time in the car, as your in the shade looking out. Or the sun is at your back, lens in the shade again. The problem is quite often the actual lens is not in the sun, under the bridge of the helmet. I bought the self darkening lenses so I did not have one for day and 1 for night. I made a mistake once with riding glasses. Blokes with different head shapes may prefer another. Not saying its the best and lightest or quietest, but the most comfortable for me. My current helmet is a Shark Evoline, folds all the way back, hey it it works for me.
Bit gangster type but they do the job wrapping close to your face and have a low profile. When selecting the helmet wear your glasses when trying it on.įWIW. Modular helmets make it easier to get the helmet on and off, even while wearing the glasses. Some helmets have a slightly higher space above your nose than others allowing for enough room. I chose a frame with a low profile frame, not Elton John specials type. I have an old eye injury and require light reducing glasses when out in bright sun. chose a pair that are narrower in width, having your helmet will ensure they will fit better. When it comes time to get " all the time glasses ". I just want your experiences and suggestions.
Wow, it was tight and I couldn't keep the readers touching my nose they kept moving up due to tight fit (so tight I could barely get them through the opening of the helmet) How do you guys and gals with glasses deal with helmets and such? I really like this helmet and don't want to get something else but maybe that is the answer. So, I went up to the self checkout and tried to put my readers on. I was in the Dollar General last night and didn't want to take my helmet off because I was being lazy. I am approaching 54 and still use dollar store readers but I must face the facts that I need real prescription glasses.
