I've been looking for a decent modular helmet because I wear glasses and this one looks like it could be the one for me. Hopefully they'll have them at my local shop so I can get the correct size before buying online.

Edit: Any reason I should steer away from modular and just live with the inconvenience? My only concern is it flipping up in an accident and doing my face no good even though it's a "full face". Albeit it would need to be a pretty precise hit I'd imagine to flip it up. Opinions?

 

I have only wore one modular helmet and it was a Nolan. I don't think you would have to worry about it opening up on you in an accident. But mine was heavy and buffeted pretty bad at higher speeds. You might try one on before you buy. Just my .02.

 

i wear glasses as well and have no issues with the icon mainframe helmets as well as shoei's and my hjc. what do you mean its a inconveinence ? i guess from doing it so long it has become routine to gear up with helmet, glasses, bla bla bla.

 

But not having to take off my glasses would be way faster and I can't tell you how many times my glasses have fallen off my seat while putting my helmet on.

 

if your riding pants have pockets, loop a ear stem in them just for the time being, i too have mashed up a nice pair of sun glasses more than once doing that. about the only thing i put on my bike is my gloves.

 

You know what would be even better? Lasik surgery! If only I had a spare $3k.

 

heard that man, some day
