Good Value & Great for Smaller Face

I already have a premium glasses w multiple lenses but I got tired of dealing w them mid ride. For the money these work as advertised. The lens clarity is adequate and the photochromatic feature works well. In full sunlight, I wish it was a bit more opaque but it's a minor negative.

The big plus for me is that I have a small face head and these fit me well. You can easily adjust the nose pad ( a bit too easily actually) and the you can also bend the temples to fine tune the wraparound.

Overall a great option for those looking for single pair of glasses for morning commute to evening ride home.

Thank you for your feedback.

Don't get dark enough

I've used Tifosi for years and they've worked great. However, this pair just doesn't get dark enough in the sun. Really thought the lens would change from a clear to a good dark shade like regular sunglasses. Not so!! They barley turn to any shade at all when exposed to sunlight.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Value and very decent product

With an option like this I cannot figure out why people spend extra for high end glasses. These are great and fit perfect for an average face. I tend to abuse all my bike stuff so I don't want to necessarily spend tons for glasses that will get thrown in a jersey pocket once it starts raining or fogged up and then I have to worry about the lenses getting scratched. After a month of use these have shown no signs of wear at all. Lenses are perfect and I will consider buying a backup pair.

Thank you for your feedback.

Clear plastic/glass

While these re a great price and fit comfortably I have an issue with the lenses popping out whenever I clean them and the ability to get darker in direct sunlight (and I live and ride in Florida) is not that great. Since I use them for riding in the morning (before work) I appreciate the clarity of the lenses but wish that they would get dark in the direct sunlight.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice improvements to my my old favorites

I am a long time Tifosi wearer, with this purchase beings my third or forth set. The Tyrant 2.0's new adjustable nose bridge is a nice improvement over the previous versions that I have owned. I keep coming back to Tifosi because they have very good optics, at price that does not break the bank. Also, the Fototec lenses work well and are better then the interchangeable options out there. When I wear out this pair, I'll buy another pair just like them.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great glasses for a cool price for smaller faces

I got these to replace some Natives that I am heartily sick of. These Tifosi's fit my female face, and they wrap around well to keep wind out of my face. I have the lightest grey lenses, and I have ridden brevets all night long wearing them, they go almost clear. They get medium dark during the daytime, which is good for all but the sunniest, most glaring conditions. I'm very happy to not have to switch lenses anymore.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great low profile eye protection

These are the best fitting glasses to wear with a bike helmet.

Great glasses, Fototec is a huge plus - no need to change lenses

I replaced another pair of Tifosi glasses that had changeable lenses, I really liked those, but with the Fototec lenses, these can't be beat. Comfortable, light, breathable.

Thank you for your feedback.

GREAT GLASSES AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE

I use these for both driving and outdoor activities. They work well for cycling as you have good peripheral vision and no external frame around the edges and they sit high enough on your nose so that bugs and dirt don't creep in. I like the Fototec function. It works well. I am on my fourth pair due to loss or breakage. One pair I had didn't fit very well compared to the others so I took the lenses from that frame and put them into another identical frame when the lenses got scratched. And they are hard to scratch which is another reason I like them so much. Overall, they are a great product.

Thank you for your feedback.

The tint is pretty slow to change.

My eyes catch the edge of the lenses along my nose. Good venting.

Better that my Oakleys and Rudy's

MTB riding 50 to 60 miles per week. Great fit, light weight and the lens transition is lighting fast. I ride in the mountains with lots and trees and open terrain and these are the best to date.

Thank you for your feedback.

I have been happy with these glasses for protection and darkening on a moderately sunny day.

I use on sunny days in the fall-there is enough darkening along with eye protection. Great in Tunnels as on the Hiawatha Bike Route.

Thank you for your feedback.

Wrapped protection & lightweight yet effective against dry-eye due to wind.

The lenses wrap well around my face so are effective to protect my eyes from the wind and glare. Frames are comfortable and incredibly light weight. Easy to forget I'm wearing them!

Thank you for your feedback.

A great pair of commuter glasses

This is my 3rd or 4th pair of these glasses. They are the best cycling glasses I've tried. The only reason that I've gone through so many pairs is that I seem to have a talent for destroying them unintentionally.

Thank you for your feedback.
