I was looking forward to having this as the temps are getting low. I tired it for one ride and it was a total failure. Had to remove it and stow it in a back pocket. Initial install worked fine, but as soon as the ride began and I was looking up/down and left/right, the mask would slide down my face and became an obstacle to breathing…. I fought it for a while, adjusting the Velcro tension and trying to keep my head still, but it made no difference. About a third into the route, I just removed it. I’m 6’3” and a rather larger person, so maybe it’s the “one size fits all” aspect of it. Somehow the tags got tossed out, so I can’t return it which is very disappointing. It was supposed to be on sale, but they didn’t apply the sale price for some reason, so I paid full price of an item I can’t use.
