Seems like a great idea but those prices are too damn high.
As with anything, I would consider it an investment to last many years. Hell, when someone finds out how much I've spent on panniers, a helmet visor for <$100 sounds like a steal! LOL
My point is there are several similar products for much cheaper.

The concept is simple enough that it should not be expensive to implement.
The problem with "other solutions" is that they aren't designed for use on a moving bike, so they don't have the structure to actually work well. Apparently, Da Brim works in 30mph winds.
I'm fine with paying money for something that works well, especially when comfort and safety are a priority. But I appreciate you looking at alternatives... I was looking too, and found nothing that was the same (for cycling).
