I seem to remember a fresh goods with set a bifocal/varifocal sunglasses with photochromic lenses. Anyone know if I remember right and /or can remember the name /supplier? I have finally reached the stage of needing some to enable me to read the trip computer/phone ! Or indeed basic bike repairs.

Cheers

Was it the [url= http://singletrackworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/fresh-goods-friday-300/ ]BZ Optic[/url] ones from a recent Fresh Goods Friday? I'm in the same situation and they seemed cheap but not followed it up. More info [url= http://www.ison-distribution.com/english/product.php?part=EWBZPB20W ]here[/url].

If you need varifocals, go to a decent independent optician, not a high street franchise, and get measured up properly for them. There are some really tasty sports frames available now, which can be glazed to your prescription and made photochromic. If you buy off the shelf you're setting yourself up for disappointment.

I discovered these last year, just trim them to size and stick on any glasses.
