How To Choose Eyewear For Mountain Biking | All You Need To Know

Спорт

For many mountain bike riders, glasses and goggles are a vital piece of equipment when heading out to ride. They have a number of functions including helping protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, wind, rain, dust and bugs. If you are thinking about getting yourself some riding glasses, (and why wouldn't you, you only get one pair of eyes and protection is important) then you are in luck. Neil talks you through the various types of mountain bike eyewear and features to look for when making your choice.

    I say, the 5-10 dollars safety sunglasses are just as good, and you won't cry when they get scratched or you lose them etc. Also, they're made for protection, they certainly won't let some pebbles break it and hit your eyes. Excellent UV-protection and minimal distortion too. It needs some time to find the perfect model though, some are just garbage.

    As a manager I actually encouraged my employees to use safety gear at home and I was fine with them taking gloves, ear and eye protection, etc. To me I didn’t want them to get hurt, be at home or work. And I didn’t want them to miss work! Anyway, there I was crashing on my bike a few weeks ago. I went over the bars and I landed right on my head, near my right eye and ear. I went full scorpion and dragged my face across some rocks. My helmet saved me from an ambulance ride and the safety glasses I borrowed from work saved my eye. Time to get some new safety glasses!

    I don't always have the arms on my riding glasses over the helmet straps. It depends on the shape of the arms and the position of the straps. The aero shape of the glasses isn't important to me. Even when on my road bike I still wear baggies, a trail helmet and use a rucksack. I also have a rack and a bag mounted on the rack as well. I do try to wear my glasses for all rides. Sometime I am not able to. I remember a wet ride I was going to. I put my glasses into my helmet. When I got to the start of the ride a friend who also doing the ride asked me if my glasses has steamed up. As I wasn't wearing at the time I didn't know if they had steamed up.

    What eyewear do you recommend for protecting your eyes from dust? I’m riding with buddies most of the time when I’m riding behind someone the dirt gets in to my eyes. Thank you for this video and any recommendations would help.

    I made the mistake of buying cheap glasses for cycling. Then I crashed. The shattered glass almost hit my eye and nearly blinded me. From then on, I only bought Oakley’s. The shatterproof glasses are worth not getting blinded. Great video guys!

    Hi! Thanks for a very nice video. I notice your examples are all Oakley but you don't mention prices as I've found Oakley to be extremely expensive... yet maybe like you say you get more premium materials. I'll wear goggles as a bicycle commuter in winter as the cold dry Minnesota air on my eyes causes a lot of tearing. Anti-fogging and if they fit over your eyeglasses are major considerations in Minnesota as all of your googles appear great fitting for people who don't wear eyeglasses, and perhaps ride in moderately cold temps right? I also found out with your competitor, Smith goggles, that ski goggles in general are tinted lighter, not like sunglasses, because they are designed for skiers that don't look into the sun but look down at the snow all of the time, so if you're a commuter and need tinted as in sunglasses the ski googles won't reduce the sun enough. I had to return my Smith ski goggles that look a lot like your Oakleys. With my eyeglasses they resulted in much pressure on my nose by them being too big with my helmet and not tinted enough for commuting use.

I recently got into mountain biking and i wanna ride trails and my local bike park. but it also gets very snowy in the winter, i also ride snowboard. is there any notable difference between ski goggles and mtb goggles? they look the same to me, and as much as i'd like proper gear, i also wanna save some money lol Thanks in advance.
