    You get breath deflectors. You also have pinlock visors, provided your helmet can take that. Or go old school and open the visor a fraction, but you can't do this while riding very fast
    Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!

      Remove your visor from the helmet. Wash it well and then apply some shaving foam or toothpaste on it properly let it be for 15 minutes and then wash it up. It stops the visor from fogging up. Its good for 1 week.

        +1 to the toothpaste and shaving foam, however I have 1 difference.

        After applying the shaving foam or toothpaste, don't wait for 10 minutes and wash, washing with water removes all the traces of foam and toothpaste from the visor and you are left with a really clean but fog prone visor, just like before.

        What you do is, apply the foam or toothpaste to the inside of the visor with a piece of cotton or tissue paper. Then use a fresh piece of cotton or tissue paper and keep rubbing the foam and paste on the visor till is sparkling clean. You can change the tissue paper or cotton piece if it stops cleaning further, keep rubbing in the foam (don't apply more foam or paste, just keep rubbing the already applied one with fresh cotton. This ensures that a thin invisible layer of soap is applied on the inside of the visor which stops fogging in the cold.
        I would like to thank my legs for supporting me, my arms for being always by my side and my fingers; I could always count on them.
