I am so totally in violation of this. I always thought the visors on helmets looked silly.


I guess we're working up a set of requirements here for a gravel helmet. The visor should retract or pivot out of the way in some fashion to allow the user to code-switch as they transition from singletrack to roads. Meanwhile, I think some sort of screen over helmet vents to keep rocks and stinging bugs out would be practically mandatory.
Maybe it could combine wavecell and MIPS together for ultimate injury prevention.
