Pinlock anti-fog insert
Anyone know where to get pinlock replacement pins other than the UK?

Re: Pinlock anti-fog insert
I just want the little plastic pins... I went ahead and ordered from the UK on eBay for a delivery sometime in December. This must be a UK based company and I think they pinch the replacement pins in the US to force buying a whole new Pinlock visor every time a pin breaks so be careful with them and keep the extra pins they ship originally.

What, a UK company 'steals' all the manufacturers pin lock pins to force people to pay $5 inc shipping? Strange that pinlock helmets are on sale in the US (so much be world-wide) and it's so difficult to get pins.

Re: Pinlock anti-fog insert
LOL, no to force sales of pinlock inserts. The pin on a pinlock seems like nothing but actually its a very proprietary design that has an offset slot and by rotating the unique pin you are able to seal the moisture absorbing plastic against your specific helmet visor. You can't just stick any pin in the hole to hold the insert, your anti-fog lens will simply not work without proper seal and the manufacturers proprietary pin.iceman wrote:What, a UK company 'steals' all the manufacturers pin lock pins to force people to pay $5 inc shipping?
So where are the pins in the US?

Re: Pinlock anti-fog insert
Yeah, I know what they are, just can't believe you can't buy them at any bike outlet - what is the pinlock equivalent in the US? If pinlock is widespread, why no pins!

Re: Pinlock anti-fog insert
oh sorry, I mis-understood we are in agreement. I really don't know what I would do without the excellent anti-fog device, since my pin broke during cleaning the other day it's a pain to have fogging on the visor. That company you have there is a keeper and a brilliant invention and must be very well patented. They should honor our restraint for living by patent law here in the USA and SEND A TRUCK LOAD OF REPLACEMENT PINS to our motorcycle distributors. Because we could knock that off in a heartbeaticeman wrote:Yeah, I know what they are, just can't believe you can't buy them at any bike outlet - what is the pinlock equivalent in the US?
