A recent thread got me thinking about getting a Madstad. My Cee Baily is ....OK....pretty good...not great in rain...some buffeting top of head...I could live with it...if I had to. I've read most of the many threads and posts here and I think I detect a theme...just want to check again.
I'm 5'9 ish in my boots, consensus seems to be that the recommended 11" isn't quite high enough and that the 13" set low is a better fit. (I have the ultimate mid-rider).
I'm getting mixed messages on the tint...I'd love dark for the look, but i have old eyes and would think the mid-tint would give me some better visibility for those time I need to see closer ie through the shield. Which brings me to the third point I'd love to hear opinions on: the bronze shield...I really searched this site and couldn't find ANY posts mentioning that color...is there ANY benefit? would it look totally weird (opinion, I realize) on a red F6? anyone have one?
In sum, my main question is shield height for a 5'91/2" rider...curious for responses on tint and bronze.
Thanks for putting up with yet another windshield post, but it's clear you aren't an F6B rider till you've bought more than one aftermarked windshield.
