Italian craftsman-finished photochromic visors

FK Visors, by Reggio Emilia, Italy based Forbikes, is one of the leading specialty motorcycle helmet visor producers in Italy.
Due to the role it plays in vision, safety and protection from sunlight, the visor is one of the most important and fragile parts in the helmet and FK brings 30 years of Italian manufacturing experience to the visor production, with brand owner Forbikes having modernised the noted AB S.r.l. thermoforming and plastic processing helmet visor business in 2012.

Seen here, FK's photochromic visors darken in response to UV light, adapting instantly to the changing light conditions of the riding environment to give much greater comfort (and therefore safety) while driving - they are clear indoors, at night and when light conditions are poor, then they darken as the strength of the sunlight increases.
"Our photochromic visors are a great alternative to sunglasses under a helmet and much better than carrying an extra face shield and having to switch between clear and tint as conditions change.
"FK photochromic visors have a light pink base colour that becomes darker when the sunlight is more intense. At just 1.2 mm thick, the visors have an extremely low weight and our manufacturing techniques and materials guarantee extra clear visibility with 70% light transmittance.
"The visors are made with an anti-scratch treatment outside and anti-fog treatment inside for increased safety and comfort, and each FK Visor is made in Italy with the best tools to ensure millimetric precision and perfect integration with the helmet. Our artisan workmanship means each visor is individually finished and quality checked by qualified technicians to assure the maximum quality and optical features".
Forbikes is increasingly known as the 'go-to' for access to some of the best quality visors available. The company's start-to-finish manufacturing process - from technical designs right through to precision moulding and hand-finishing - "ensures a perfect fit to the helmet every time". FK is well known for its 3 mm visors with quality optics and advanced design capabilities.
