Looking to buy a ulac brand alarm cable lock. For almost same price, which one would u buy? One that uses aaa batteries but weighs 500g or the other one that uses button/flat type batteries and weighs 400g? I actually prefer aaa batteries because i have plenty of them rechargeable types at home. However i am concerned about the extra 100g weight penalty.

Basically to protect my eyes from sand and gravels kick up by passing vehicles. Also from flying insects too.

Talking about flying insects! I once had an insect die on my spec's lens.

Talking about flying insects! I once had an insect die on my spec's lens.

A small bug flew into my eye once. I rubbed and saw 1/2 its body on my fingers. Had to go to doc to flush out its remains.
So unless its those downstairs ride to buy stuffs, i will def wear glasses.

protective eye wear is a must, especially if u ride alot on the road

 

[wackymaus75]

Pardon me but would you be going so fast that you need visors at night? Because of the wind or what?

Bro, are you able to remove the straps from the helmet? I can't so, I soak the whole helmet in.
