Best New Face Shield for Day and Night Riding
Shoei CWR-1 Transitions Photochromic Pinlock Shield
Sunglasses that automatically darken and lighten, depending on conditions, aren’t anything new. But it’s only starting to appear on a range of motorcycle helmets. Shoei’s new CWR-1 is an adaptive shield that works well day and night, seamlessly adjusting the shield’s darkness level with the changing light. When it’s exposed to ultraviolet, full activation only takes a couple of minutes. Plus, this is a real motorcycle face shield, with impact resistance to protect your face and eyes from flying debris. With the CWR-1, there’s no need to carry both dark- and light-tinted shields anymore. [$170; shoei-helmets.com]
