Polarized visors

[acdcfan]

Hi all
does anyone know where you can get some polarized helmet visors?
It doesn't have to be a visor as such but it can be an add-on to a tinted visor

I bought tinted from Helmet warehouse and while it is o.k to ride with the sun at the back of you, as soon as sun hits the front you can see the glare to a point where you think visor is dirty or something
Any help much appreciated

Might help to say what type of helmet you have? I seem to remember seeing that polarised visors were only available from one brand (if any).

only problem with polarized visor is that you may not be able to read a digital read out on ur dash. I know if i wear my polarized sunglasses when riding my dash just goes black and i hav eto bob my head about a bit at angles to see what the reading is.

I find polarisation distracting; all the glass I can see goes all rainbow-y and shiz...

I will be ok with it...

Reason I bought it is to remove sun glasses out of equation

I always wear polarised sunnies too, be awesome if I could throw a polariser film on the internal shade of my lid.

If you find anything, get back to us.

What about these, might be a quick easy fix.

I've used these on the last 3 clear visors on 2 helmets and they work well, not as good as the Iridium tinted visors I've had but as I tend to start early and finish late they work well enough
If I'm riding purely during the day and likely to be riding into the sun then I'll just use the Iridium
Not sure how they would work under a tinted visor as they use the sunlight to darken them like Transitions glasses

Not sure about Oz as I got mine from Johns Bike Bits in the US

They are smaller than the opening on most helmets to allow a general fit so should fit most helmets

Do these go on outside or inside of the helmet?

Did you try them out at the full sun?
I'd like to know before I buy? How does world look like through cobalt blue

Also I would replace my tinted visor with the clear one and use this instead

Never used them, but seeing as I'm being helpful Let me google that for you

a) It sticks on the inside of the helmet visor
b) As I said above I've used them in full sun but they aren't as good as a tinted visor when heading into the setting sun in summer so there is still some glare although you can see
c) You don't really notice the blue colour and it goes more of a grey colour over time on the visor
d) Keep the tinted visor for full sun days where you know you wont be riding in the dark As above I use the FCHO insert on a clear visor for ~90% of my riding but a lot of that is commuting to and from work which means a lot of early mornings or evenings
