I tried to capture what it's like to ride in the rain with the Sinnerbikes hood and the visor fully down. Unfortunately, my camera generally seems blinded by the brightness difference between the inside of the hood and the light coming through the visor, and the raindrops make it even worse. On top of that, it's a wide angle camera, so it captures the raindrops on the visor more than the road... What I mean is, the visibility through the visor isn't nearly as bad as my camera makes it look. Still, at least the video shows how the visor sheds raindrops with a little Rain-X applied to it when going fast enough.
