The Pinlock system offers optimal protection against annoying fogging of the visor. An anti-fog Pinlock inner lens is attached by means of two small pins to the prepared Pinlock outer visor. The airtight space between lens and visor ensures clear vision and therefore significantly enhances road safety. The Pinlock system can be fitted to many helmets made by Shoei, Schuberth, Nolan and Lazer.
