W1Z@RD Posted November 13, 2009 Share Finally!! Got myself a pair of Rudy projects Rydons with Photchromic lenses.... At the Sandton convention center. The guy showed me how the lens changes with light using a UV light thingy magoo and was impressed. When I left and put them on in the car, they hardly go dark... Is it meant to adjust over time or what gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weight Weenie Posted November 13, 2009 Share Yep they won't really work in the car because of the UV blocking properties of the windscreen. RTFM hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saffa_G Posted November 13, 2009 Share mine came with a spare set of driving lenses ..... that you could swap, because my riding lenses are orange..I got the Rydon X Orange ones! What did urs cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zula Posted November 13, 2009 Share Hey Wizard, I have a pair as well. Before I bought them I asked a few questions on the hub, and the one anser which sticks in my mind when I asked if they go dark enough, was that they dont go drak enough if you plan on welding anything!! So far though, they have been absolutely fantastic!! Enjoy them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W1Z@RD Posted November 13, 2009 Share I bought them for R2100 but only got 1 set of clear lenses... Guess I have to buy another set for driving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT1 Posted November 13, 2009 Share I must say, I am just plain lazy, and leave the photochromic lenses in ( I have spare driving ones) and they work just fine for driving the russian truck or the 'Tard (although, when hooliganning on the 'Tard, anything goes, right?)...

BlueMax Posted November 21, 2009 Share Best frames ever! Get a pair of Polar3FX lenses to use in the car - absolutely fantastic and there was some promotion on these lenses at Bruce Reyneke Cycles - R800 I think. The golf lenses are great too!
