I'm considering to buy this helmet and I wanted to know if the visor is resistant or if it will break easily if I crash in the park?

I used mine 78 days last season and the visor's still intact.  You can grab the visor and bend it and it won't break, so I think if you did manage to break it that would be the least of your worries.

yeah, the visor is pretty bendy..and apparently giro will replace it if it brakes..also, if your buying in a shop, try to cop or get a few extra screws for the front, cuz they srtip after a while..

The front screw that you use to adjust how far up/down your visor is set is made of plastic and can strip if you're not careful with it or if you overtighten it. So you can just be careful and it should be all good.
