Pinlock Fog Resistant Lens - kennyw - 10-14-2019
I've been using pin lock for years. Wouldn't ride in Seattle without it. Cold mornings are very damp and foggy here.

In the Golden Horseshoe, I can probably count on my hands how often the lake fog horn goes off in a year. So clearly a big difference compared to the west coast.

+1 It is the only way to keep the face shield from fogging.

After I bought new transition glasses in march this year I stopped wearing glasses when riding my bike. The new ones get quite dark in the sun and take a while to get lighter in the tunnels. I can see good enough without glasses when riding but can not read a menu in a restaurant without them. I just order a burger with fries and that solves that problem !
