RE: riding glasses

My wife has HDTransitional lens sun glasses and I just picked up a pair of freedom 24 Transitional lens http://www.cglasses.com/styles/motorcyclesunglasses.htmCompaired the HD to the freedom 24 about the same and the price of the Freedom is about $100. less. I agree that they are not as dark as sunglasses but I ride a lot when the sun is going up or down and cant stand having to change my glasses when I am on a ride. The freedom 24s are very fit well and have yet to fog up. my $.02

Haven't tried them yet, but at the price gotta be worth a shot.

I have and they are GREAT!
I didn't think they would be worth a s#!t but WOW, they are really nice. Worth 3 or 4 times more IMO.

RE: riding glasses

I use wrap around safety glasses from a localNAPA or most auto parts stores. They run 3-5 each and they are very comfortable and look good. I like others buy a few pairs of clear and dark and when they get scratched i throw them out and pull out a new pair. I tried the expensive and when you just buy them and get hit with a small stone or get a scratch I flip out soooo...... Cheap but very safe!

RE: riding glasses

I have a set of clear bike glasses I bought at a rally for $12 that work really well. They are light, but I put a pair of the straps on (like what snow skiers wear) to keep them down. For the day I have a pair of cheap $20 sunglasses I got from Target. They are quite nice, they are so clear I almost forget I'm wearing them! (I've done double checks to make sure!)

RE: riding glasses

I tried expensive ones but, settled on two pairs at the local hardwear store. Safety glasses tinted for day time and clear for night time. Total cost about $16.00. They work great and should be less brakeable than regular glasses.
