I bought a Tuzo helmet, good price for a flip front lid, in florescent yellow for £35 delivered from Busters.

No one does a replacement tinted visor, maybe should have spent a bit more and got one of those lids with the flip down dark visor?

Anyone used those sticky insert tints? if so are they any good?

I used one years ago for a few months - they work alright in summer if you stick it down carefully, but if any rain leaks into your visor or its cold weather they have a tendency to mist up horribly. I wouldn't use one again personally.

One of these in case we aren't talking about the same thing.

No messing about changing visors, any low sun you just dip your head a little.

Visor strip is nice if fairly upright. I took mine off as it gets in the way if I tuck in on the bandit.
