Great sunglasses, purchase with cautionThese are excellent sunglasses, they fit well, are terrific in dappled sunlight. However, there is one key aspect that needs to be considered and is the reason for no more than three stars. They come with another set of clear lenses - which sounds useful. Yet, the frames are very fragile and despite great care and attention when changing the lens the frames broke, very easily. Unfortunately, rapha don't carry spare frames.......which means you are left with great lens and ..............broken frames.
So, if you just want sunglasses, these are great, if you think you'll need to change the lenses, shop elsewhere.

Decent shadesGreat sunglasses. They look good on my thinner face and I like the extra clear lens that comes with it. I give it four stars only because they can occasionally rub against my aero helmet (the top). It’s not a big concern for me but it might be for others, which is why I mention it. That said, they’re great and functional, giving the road more definition in the bright, high-elevation sun we often get in Colorado - a challenge for my light coloured eyes. I also have the more casual glasses that Rapha offers and it may be that I wear these a little less as I like the style of the others slightly more. On the other hand, they’re so good I have two pair.

Great sunnies, fit well, stay in place, do the jobHaving started cycling with some cheap no-name sunnies I decided it was time to get a decent pair. It was either these or Os. I'm super pleased with these, from the first time riding without having to poke them back into place and feeling like my eyes were totally protected from wind, bugs and dust I now know there is value in spending more. I've not got the smallest nose, let's just say I cast a decent shadow, even with that the nose piece fits great and the frames sit perfectly on my face with minimal gap at the bottom. The lens tint is very good, dark but enhancing and the spare clear lens has come out a few times in the rain and is a great addition. Highly recommend,worth the money.

Great glassesGreat glasses. Very good fit and they provide an excellent all-round field of vision, significantly better for me than many other glasses that I have tried. Only downside is that you cannot buy replacement lenses, hence dropping one star. I would like the option to by an alternative to the clear lens for low light.

Difficult to remove the lensesGreat glasses - but don’t try to change the lenses: It’s almost impossible to remove them without breaking the frame…

Perfect cycling sunglassesWe loved these so much my fiancée kept stealing them until I ordered her a pair too. The optics are amazing and the way they increase the contrast is amazing. No fogging issues, no wind issues. Fantastic product.

look sharp, performance excellenceI love these glasses. These replaced another pair I had and I couldn't be happier. The lenses and coverage are fantastic. The clear lenses they come with are perfect for evening and night rides and the tinted lenses look and perform fantastic. The ventilation works well too. Easy to clean, look amazing and sit well on the helmet when you need a break from wearing them. I bought a second pair with a different colour frame I like them so much.

Broken frameI am very disappointed with the product. While replacing the lenses the frame broke
2 years ago spare lenses were not available but do you now sell additional lenses? For changing colours or if the original lens gets damaged?

What lenses are best for low light conditions apart from clear?
Asked by: Mal Dicko
The pink/blue lenses allow for 21% of light to come through. This would be the second best lens for low light behind the clear lenses.

Are you able to place prescription lenses in the glasses?
Asked by: soulpower01
The Classic sunglasses would be the only ones that can take prescription lenses of
our eyewear line. Unfortunately the Pro Team Full Frame Sunglasses can not.

Can you buy replacement lenses for these frames? My dog chewed my rcc version and has scratched the lenses beyond repair.

The white frames indicate they have "pink" lenses. What is the light transmission on the pink lens compared to the pink blue lens?
Asked by: cadence90
The light transmission of the Pink lenses is the same as the Pink/Blue lenses at 21%
