Review by Tony KLiberation for reader needersby Tony KCycling EnthusiastWashington DC2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Great sunglasses, but the reader lens makes them brilliant! Perfect for reading your GPS/Garmin/logger screen while barreling down the road. I've taken to using them off the bike as well rather than carrying sunglasses and readers. My wife paid [$] for a similar pair, which makes these a good buy all round!

Review by tyThere are better readers to be had.by tyCycling EnthusiastNorcalAs another reported the lens would pop out every time I would clean them. Now one

Review by cpailthorpGood product for older ridersby cpailthorpCycling EnthusiastOlympia, WA1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Very helpful for reading my GPS. I found that a weaker correction (lower number) than I normally use worked better than I first expected. It's a good idea to visit the shop and try out what's available.

Review by SRcyclistGood cycling glasses and now I can read my Garmin!by SRcyclistCycling EnthusiastSanta Rosa, CAThese glasses work very well as cycling glasses should. They look good, fit great, do not fog and are comfortable. The shade of grey is just about right. And, you can glance down and read your bike computer or route slip easily. The bifocal part of the lens is not a distraction at all - you will not even know it is there until you look down and realize that you can read! The company stands behind their product too. They replaced one of the arms free of charge when it broke (a bit fragile).

Review by AnonymousGreat sunglasses, and I can read my Cateye!by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastEagle Rock, CAI love these sunglasses. They fit well on my fairly narrow face and are very light. These have the smoke lenses, and I have an older pair with brown - both are fine in the bright southern California sunlight I am almost always riding in. As suggested, I got the reading lens power 1 notch less than my reading glasses. That level is just perfect for reading the cyclometer, seeing what's going on when patching an inner tube, etc. Great product, great price. Highly recommended.

Review by RatRacerNice, lightweight glassesby RatRacerCycling EnthusiastSan Antonio, TXI thought I would try these because of the magnification. Overall, I like the glasses, they stay put on my face and are lightweight. I found the magnification to be of minimal usefulness - it rather gets in the way as it fuzzes up the lower part of the visual field unless you actually stop and focus on the that part of the lens, these would be helpful if you needed to find the hole in a flat tube but otherwise, I personally don't get as much benefit from them as I thought I might.

Review by AnonymousGlad I found these glassesby AnonymousCycling EnthusiastWilliamsburg, VirginiaI wear them every ride, it takes a little getting use to looking down at the bike computer through the magnifying portion of the lens instead of tilting my head but now I can read all the little numbers without squinting. They could be a shade darker. If I lost them I would buy another pair of these again

Review by RobDiamondLove these glasses!by RobDiamondCycling EnthusiastTennessee2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.I love these glasses. They are very comfortable and lightweight. The magnified area is low enough that it isn't a distraction when you don't need it, but it's in the perfect spot to look down at your computer. I use mine for both cycling and running. They stay in place very nicely.
