$230.00 | | Purchased At: | Wheel Away Bikes, SJ, CA | | Strengths: | Feather-light, stays on under heavy sweat, sits nice and tight on face | | Weaknesses: | Expensive, Adaptalite isn't noticeable, expensive, did I mention expensive? | | Similar Products Used: | Oakley M-Frame, Oakley Zero, Oakley Half Jacket, Oakley Splice | | Bike Setup: | Specialized Stumpjumper FSR Expert 120 (mostly stock) | | Bottom Line: | As you can tell, I'm a bit of an Oakley fan and have a huge collection of their eyewear. This is my first non-Oakley purchase, and I thought Oakleys got ridiculously expensive.
I can't tell if the Adaptalite is really changing tints, but maybe that just means they're working that well. Specialized claims they darken to 17% light transmission, but they look lighter than Oakley G30 lenses. This is the "road" formulation, but it works pretty well on trails that go from bright to tree-covered. I wish the tinting was more noticeable and got darker. On the plus side, they are extremely comfortable and hold on very well. I have a freakishly wide head and these are the first glasses I've ever worn that didn't rub the side of my temples (the M-Frames and Half Jackets gave me headaches after 30 minutes of squeezing). I've had them on for hours and hours and never even noticed I was wearing them (only my non-riding Romeo 2s can make that claim). | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
