I purchased 2 of these for myself and sister. They do take a while to get used to but doesn’t take long. I found that I still have to move my head to see behind as the mirror doesn’t quite rotate enough, but lots better than having to rotate your body around and drift into the middle of the road.
The lenses. I bought them both with the Photochromic lenses and we are both very dissatisfied with them as they do not darken enough and only change to a very light smoke effect that you can barely see. They may as well be clear.
Overall:
Design: looks great, nice style, frame looks good
Usability: the mirrors are the main thing here and are the reason I invested in these. The lenses cover your eyes well and stop insects from flying into them.
Lenses: for the extra I paid for these against the quality, I do not recommend them at all.
I’ve just purchased some extra darker lenses with the hope that these will be more useful in the bright light.
The Price: Too much. I was expecting a lot more for this amount and feel let down with what I received. I was expecting a stronger frame, lenses that worked well and darkened when needed. It feels like a gimmick.
I’ll be holding the new lenses up against the sun to see if they are ok before I unpack and fit them.
The Trieye glasses have increased my confidence and safety on the road so much. Even riding on trails, they are nice for awareness of who is comming up behind you or if a ride partner has dropped back. They are great for both group and solo rides. I really appreciate having them when I am tucked in an aero position to see my surroundings without having to get out of position. Same for bombing hills. It is nice to know if a car has crested the hill behind you sooner so you can adjust your lane for them. There is one change I would love to see, so Trieye if you read these, please consider adding an option for a tinted or photochromic mirror, or some kind of UV filter to the mirror. Often, the sun is in a position where it can catch the mirror and hit your eye or your cheek just under your eye and I have even had a mild sunburn just in that spot where the mirror passes light onto my face. Otherwise, this is one of the best cycling safety products. I have bought pairs for several other people as gifts.
These TriEye glasses are of exceptional quality and style,they truly are lifesavers on the road without the excessive turning of your head and usual moving offline on the road between the verge & traffic,also the visual clarity of what’s coming up behind is amazing and is a great early warning if evasive action is required,grateful for this intelligent product,thank you ♥️🙏👍😊
They are good shades and I'm sure the mirror will work as expected but I think it will take a bit of getting used to.
The Delivery was exceptionally quick.
The SunGlasses I use for rowing ( blue filter -twin mirror )
They work really well. To be honest I got use to them within 30 minutes.
The quality is outstanding and that includes the protective case.
Very pleased with the purchase and fully recommend.
My husband and I are road cyclists and we jist each got a pair of Tri-eyes and love them!!
I am happy with Trieye. Fast shipping, nice storage case and after 5 or 6 uses I have adjusted to the small mirror. The sunglasses are very nice.
Great! After getting use to them, I don’t leave home without them.
When I first got them I was a little disappointed how small the mirror was, it took a little while to get it adjusted just right but now I love them, TriEye is so comfortable and works very well.
I would not think of cycling without TriEye glasses. They are an excellent piece of kit, essential I would say. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the original lens was quite dark and in winter, too dark. Also, going from sunshine to dark lanes was a problem. The solution, I bought the transition (Photochromic) lens from TriEye. Problem solved.
Finally convinced my wife to wear a pair and she loves them so much that she won't leave home without them.
Product is excellent, but getting used to the mirror while riding takes some practice. The glasses look and feel terrific
I love these sunglasses! I have high cheekbones and these glasses do no touch my face. So they feel very roomy and lightweight! The top rim does not let any light in and yet there is good airflow. The sharpness of images is superior. I did purchase the replacement large mirror. By my second ride, seeing behind me was easy. I feel much more safe riding with these glasses and the built in mirror.
Pure clarity in the lens, really comfy fit and having the trieye mirror is excellent. Feel much safer on the bike. Nice to know when a car is approaching!
Great glasses. Used it for 2 rides, one in the day, one night. It was good.
Bought it with a prescription frame insert and added a pair of progressive lens. Given that the glasses is a base 6 curve, the standard progressive lens need alot to get used to.
Perhaps an insert designed for normal progressive lens will be nice.
Quality is great i have COSTA GLASSES I HAVE 4 pairs and now have TRIEYE MY SON LOVE THE GLASSES THANKS
Had to get used to it just because the mirror is small and the I needed to tilt my head to get a perfect rearview. However, I do not see any other way this could be bettered. After riding a mile, the muscle memory of where to look sets in and this accessory becomes indispensable. Love it for its inconspicuousness for the added extra glass to swap out the mirror and use the glasses as normal sunglasses. Very well designed and I do not look like a Borg. A bit pricy but still indispensable for urban biking especially.
I am currently training for a half marathon. The Trieye glasses are exactly what I needed. The are snug and comfortable and they are easy to see what is behind me without turning my head and risking a fall.
They look great. 100% happy.
Thank you!
Wondeful innovation! I use these everytime I ride on road. The mirror is clear and there is no problem to see without reading glasses on. Delivery time is a bit long so that takes one start off. Worth the wait though.
I just got them, i hope they are good, they look good, ill just have to get used to them to find out how good the are
