    Hi,

    I have just bought one of these helmets and after first ride in wet a
    layer of film on the inside of the visor is peeling off.

    I took it back today (shop said they have had a few issues and
    schuberth have fixed it). So they fitted a new one. Just spent 30 mins
    outside, again raining, waiting for someone - not riding - and it is
    already bubbling at the edge.

    Has anyone else had this problem ? This is a friggin £350 helmet -
    what's going on ?

    Cheers,

    Karl

    Quote the almighty Sale of Goods Act, get a refund and buy a proper helmet
    like an Arai. If you buy the cheapest one you'll have £150 spare.

    If you must have an anti-fog visor then get the Uvex double glazed one that
    many here like. Or get a Fog City insert.

    And check it's not some sort of transport film for protecting the visor that
    you're supposed to remove before using the helmet... :)

    Similar problem with my Uvex (two of them) Still very non-misting though.

    This is an unusual and irritating problem, I had Schuberth helmets since
    the Profil I, now the S1. Never had any problems. Bring it back and
    contact Schuberth service, it's excellent.
