I bought one because I liked the idea. Then for a while I wasn't bothering to flip it up ever and thought that the next time I needed a helmet I would definitely get an internal sun visor but wouldn't care about the flip front. Then I got a cold!
Have you ever sneezed while wearing a helmet?
A good well made flip front like Nolan or any of the dearer brands are unlikely to break. Sometimes you really do have a big advantage with a flip front even for a non-smoker like me.
