DR ◣◢ Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Some prescription glasses is the answer, expensive for me now, just bought the bike. Again I say this: "You don't need them. I ride with normal glasses. No problems at all"
TNT1 Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Then, I wear glasses. Can see without them but struggle to see road signs and stuff....? I are fockin confused. It appears you are to, noob. Let me explain, MTB=off road=no road signs. FFS! Green Bean 1

Lamber Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 "alot" should be written as two separate words. A and lot. As in "a lot".
123hannes321 Posted August 10, 2012 Author Posted August 10, 2012 **** shoes...? Normal cross trainers and peddles for now.
Caerus Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Again I say this: "You don't need them. I ride with normal glasses. No problems at all" I tried this, ended up having to replace the lenses in the normal glasses, plus eneded up having to get prescription riding glasses anyway. I would not recommend it. The Ghost 1
Carsten Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 I have been riding with normal glasses for over two years now and not once did I have any problems DR ◣◢ 1
Caerus Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Have a look through these older threads. This should help you.
Helpmytrap Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 I have been riding with normal glasses for over two years now and not once did I have any problemsNot doing yourself any favours by doing that, well with all them UV rays out there.
Carsten Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Not doing yourself any favours by doing that, well with all them UV rays out there. It has got UV ray filters and anti-glare builtin - had to have them as I have got very sensitive eyes
The Ghost Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 What did these cost you Richard....I am in the same situatiion....thanks *Hijack off* Good question.I waited for this year to do it, and did it through my medical aid.They submitted the claim etc, and I just paid in like R300.They give a great deal if you buy the frame and lenses there, I think it all came in at R4k or so - maybe less.
Helpmytrap Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 It has got UV ray filters and anti-glare builtin - had to have them as I have got very sensitive eyesSounds like the Rolls Royce of lenses! Fancy-fancy.
