Answer 3

At two days old, you should not have any trouble with a helmet at all. Take it back and exchange it for a good one.

Answer 4

take it back to the shop & get them to fix it...& as for looks on a cruiser....  full face looks better than not having a nose when you come off the bike & grind away your face....

Answer 5

I see plenty of people on cruisers where them.  The face plates are all removable, so you probably just have to put it back in correctly.  You should have a little guide that came with the helmet.

Answer 6

It shouldn't have this kind of problem after just two days.

Take it back and have them replace it...unless you got it from somewhere cheap like Wallmart or Sears. Then just return it and buy yourself a good quality helmet.

You should not spend less that $250 for a decent helmet.

Answer 7

if it is 2 days old, take it back.   No one looks stupid being safe and wearing a full face helmet.  I once was on a bike and had an accident.  I flew over 100 feet before hitting the paved road on my face.  That thing saved my face from horrible scars!  Probably saved my life as it had a crack it it that could have been my head.
