  1. Hi there guys and girls,

    My boyfriend competes in road racing and he has lost his sunglasses and needs some new ones, he said he would like a cheap pair for training in but he has a thing where they have to be polarized lenses. Could anyone reccomend a pair maybe a widely avaliable brand or something which will ship to the UK.

    Id love to get him a pair that people think are good and value for money rather than make a mistake and buy something useless. Thanx everyone 🙂 (oooh his bike is black and red too so if they are that color im sure he would like that aswell haha)

  2. Been trying to look on ebay - Smith Sliders any good?

  3. BBB BSG-23 Winner as worn by Tom Boonend and the Quickstep pro team.
    They come will different lenses for different conditions and very reasonably priced.

    Polarized is not a good idea for road riding - it can hide wet spots in the road. Probably OK for criteriums and the like.

    He prefers them im not sure why, must be some reason and he does a lot of road racing, maybe its just a personal preferance type of thing i dunno
