Getting to grips with newly acquired StepSpeed, which came with a perspex windstop, which JUST clears the folding hood, but is almost impossible to see through, because of reflections.
Recommendations please for a windstop that does not removing every time the hood is folded, and that has a coarse enough mesh screen so that you can actually see through it!
Thanks for the help

Re: Windstop
Plenty of original mesh ones on eBay. I have one and rear view is fine and it folds if needed. I believe there may be 2 heights - the lower works best with the hood.

Re: Windstop
The mesh type windstops are the best option IMO - we did a bunch of testing back in the day - see: http://www.mgf.ultimatemg.com/group1/windstop/index.htm
