Although it’s not easy to use the mirrors during activity I appreciate my TriEye equipment while cycling and rowing. The challenge is 1. to adjust the mirrors for the specific activity and 2. to focus quickly your eyes on the narrow mirrors sector and the content of interest. Rowing, you have only a second or two to detect and assess obstacle in your way (was the black spot a duck or a swimmer?) and the next opportunity for a quick glimpse comes only several meters later. Also cycling in the towns busy traffic allows only very short glimpses. You have to train intensively your moves (when and where your head and eyes adjust), so you have your dangerously obstacles first time right in sight! But it’s worth, using it!
My particular mirrors showed after two years plus ugly internal spots and had to be replaced. It seemed to be a production issue. I wrote directly an email at the manufacturer and was quick and friendly served. The two mirrors were replaced instantly without charge.
Very well designed. Lens are great and the mirror is very effective. It does take time to adjust and get use to.
View Sport Photochromic - Cycling Glasses with Mirror
This is my second pair of trieye glasses. I just wish they would darken a bit faster when I’m out in the sun and get slightly darker overall. I switched to the larger mirror option, and it’s definitely a big improvement over the standard one that comes with the glasses. I wear them all the time while riding my bike, and overall, I’m very happy with them.
My TriEye glasses paired with my radar light is as good as it gets! When that radar goes off or I hear tires I just tilt my head a little and I know what is coming and assess the risk of that vehicle. Also when I go on a gravel ride with the wife, all I have to do is tilt back and look for her headlight to know she’s all good! I have the red lenses and transition. Couldn’t recommend them more!
Have both photochromic and blue rowing lens. Work great after weeks of several uses Are much better than lens attaching eyeglasses, which I have done for years or even using a waterski mirror.
Getting use to it takes time, mostly because very little head movement is needed. Helmet straps get in the way but that's part of perfecting the movement. Thinking about buying a clear pair for night rides.
These are great for bike riding. The mirror is easy to adjust and allows you to see behind you for passing vehicles and to confirm your riding partners are nearby.
The photo chromatic lenses are perfect. They do not get too dark such that you can still see the hazards in the road.
Excellent glasses. Bought one of these for my wife and she's absolutely loving it
Really cool, have to adjustment have to ne made frequently when riding..
Great for a extra larger view, easy to switch out, glad I purchased it, I highly recommend this larger rear view mirror
The TriEye glasses increase riding safety. The new larger mirror give a much better rear view. The ability to check traffic coming from behind gives me more confidence when riding in high traffic conditions.
Best goggles for cycling...
-After getting used to the increased situational awareness of what's going on behind my back without turning my head much I can never go back to a regular pair.
-The only mirror setup that doesn't look uncool
The mirror comes with a learning curve but after the first ride I already removed the side mirror from the bike and after the third ride it feels like I have a new superpower. That the world behind becomes visible via a slight turn of the head, that moving the view up-down and left-right is possible without affecting the ride, and that rough terrain doesn't affect my mirror anymore each make my TriEye far superior to the old bike mirror. Highly recommend.
Very nice sunglasses. I've not tried them while cycling yet (got COVID around the time I ordered the glasses and have not been able to ride since), but trying them out the view through the polarized lenses is nice and clear and the mirror provides a good view behind me. I also ordered the replacement mirror, which, due to its larger size, provides a larger view area behind me.
Fantastic glasses, have been using for about two months now and they have made cycling so much safer, almost as a bonus the lenses and frames are worth the money alone, can absolutely recommend
I’m 76 years old, mostly riding on small country roads near home in New England, USA. I bought these in preparation for a week long ride across Slovenia. As forewarned, it took an hour or two for me to figure out how to use them. Once I learned how to slightly **** my head to maximize their attributes, they performed as advertised. I especially like the way the mirror is protected from raindrops by the lens. I would favor a slightly larger mirror dimension, but all in all… well designed, comfortable, solid performance.
I already have the polarized version with two mirrors for rowing, which are also very good for cycling. Very often also during cycling there is the need to look backwards on both sides. I also have the adaptor for ground lenses, which works well. Now I ordered the photochromatic version, so that I can use these helpful glasses also in darker situations. However, as a standing and supporting customer I‘m very disappointed, that only a few days after the order a new version of the photochromatic glasses with better protection is available, without letting me now. This is not a fair way hoe to treat loyal customers. I feel exploited.
I wish you had it in the different color. I like the big mirrors they work better.
The rear view capability make these glasses shine. The arm hinge design seems weak in design. Use hard case when not wearing.
I have ridden four times with the glasses and still have not gotten the hang of it.
I love my trieye. What a good choice. I cannot ride my bike without it. I feel super safe.
