Meh. I just have several goggles with different lenses instead.

Do you really think the lens will stay attached in a big fall?

I' would be concerned about wind noise if the seal isn't good....


But if it is in fact a strong seal and as BV said would hold in a fall.....its an ingenious idea

 

[gmcunni]

i wonder if the magnets would interfere with the chip in my head?

 

[Nick]

maybe you could just stick the lens right to your skull instead of even needing a frame

I have a good business idea / invention: A helmet with built in goggles that just slide down from the top. Like a pull-down visor

There was an integrated helmet/goggle a few years back...
