Bell MX-9 Adventure MIPS ECE 22.06 - Alpine White / Black

I should preface by saying that I've always been plagued by visor fogging to a seemingly abnormal degree.

This is a great lid, I imagine, if the weather is warm and can be expected to stay that way.
I purchased hoping that the extra space behind the chinbar in an adventure/off-road-focused lid would help alleviate the frequent fogging issues I tend to have. Other reviews were also encouraging in saying Bell's inegrated antifog was quite good.
Unfortunately, I've found if below around 5 degrees C in any remotely damp weather, rather than fogging up, the visor seems to accumulate a film of fine water droplets that are just as bad for obstructing vision and MUCH harder to clear by opening the visor for a bit than normal fogging. The free-flowing nature of the helmet also, rather than helping clear out damp air, just keeps the inside freezing cold, being both uncomfortable and helping to chill the inside surface of the visor so moisture can build up more readily.

This happens so rapidly (within minutes) that the helmet is nigh-on unusuable in adverse weather. Not really ideal for an "adventure" helmet when the weather can easily turn a bit cold and damp most of the year in Britain.

Add to it, a replacement Pinlock-compatible visor (admittedly, with a Pinlock fitted) is currently just over half the cost of this helmet again at £110! You'd be better off springing for a second lid for poorer weather!

I bought this on a recommendation and it didn't disappoint. The helmet is comfortable, fits well and isn't as noisy as I had expected but the main thing for me as a rider who wears glasses is the fact that the ventilation is spot on! My glasses or the visor does not mist up when the visor is closed….and it doesn't even have a pinlock. If you're looking for an adventure helmet for a great price then look no further.

Great helmet, good value for money, well reviewed, stylish and comfortable.

Wanted an adventure helmet for an upcoming trip but didn't want to spend a fortune. If you wear spectacle or sunglasses the MX9 MIPS ECE 22.06 is the model to buy. Great quality inside & out. Can't fault it for the price.

I deliberated over this lid for quite some time and sought advice from SBS team who are brilliant.
Was a very snug fit for me, if it had more padding by forehead I'd have kept it.
