Seems like a solution to a problem that doesn't exist....has a plastic peak/visor held with plastic screws ever caused a problem....I would have thought the mouth piece would be a lever in an accident before the peak/visor. Just trying to re-invent the wheel for marketing.
Just goes to show how Vital is full of old and clueless riders/fans.

The magnetic visor is meant to reduce rotational impact damage when falling. It's not a gimmick you old sand bags.

Clueless.

I have yet to see any visor, screwed or snapped on that could withstand a 180lb man crushing it into dirt. I really don't see this being a safety issue, rather a marketing gimmick that caused their star rider to look like a dork on the sports largest stage.
Uneducated.

Glad you didn't just post one word on this. I'm not sure how you could even have relative interest in the sport of motocross and now know how great of a thing the magnetic visors are. KRoc didn't even have a concussion in his crash last year. Only explanation is that visor. Speaks for itself.

Every time I see this I think of Daffy Ducks beak blown backwards by Elmer Fudd during wabbit season. Cracks me up.

Go back to one word answers, that way people will still assume you're smart.
