Hmmm those glasses look interesting, shame about the lens colour mind – I do like bronze tint for making things look nice but not convinced it works for riding, the pink could be a good choice for me though.
Be interested to know how you get on with the adjustable arms as every pair of glasses I’ve ever tried with those have been either uncomfortable but durable or comfortable but had slop in the adjustment within weeks. (admittedly this is largely confined to safety glasses)

I think my legs are still aching now from Jennride!

SCICON glasses are available in 24 shades so don’t be put off by the dazzle of these bad boys.

I quite like the look of the pink lens, comes with a spare green one too…
The tech spec doesn’t seem to want to show me anything on my phone though so difficult to know what the transmission and such is like.

The Sram Codes bit says SRAM Guide RSC in the title 🙂

Schwalbe Magic Mary Super Trail

£49.99 from Ison 😂 , what’s that the trade price?

Fixed, @rubber_buccaneer… 🙂 Amanda must have been looking at the wire-bead OEM chunker versions on the price list.

That was a pre-caffeine mistake this morning, I can only apologise. I did think ‘they’re 30 quid cheaper than my new road tyres?!’

To be fair you can get one for fifty quid it just isn’t UK RRP

I’m happy that Hope have thickened their rotors, hopefully it’s coming to their floating rotors soon. Though I’ve got a front floating rotor and a Rohloff Buzzsaw to burn through first.

The stupid looking riding glasses cold war just heated up. I thought PitVipers looked stupid, but those Scicon monstrosities are next level.

those Scicon monstrosities are next level

They are sports glasses so I can accept the looks if they work extremely well but that branding had better be a peel off sticker 😀
