Here at Rad8 we have been listening to our customers' feedback for many years to understand how we can improve our glasses to provide:-

1. more protection
2. quicker lens reaction
3. updated styles
4. great customer service
5. various prescription options including ultra thin lenses.

Riding the trails and testing different designs over the previous 12 months with a great group of ambassadors we have been trying to perfect, the ultimate MTB riding glasses.  

The typical MTB rider will be moving in and out of trees on the trails, sweating buckets on very steep fire roads before going hell for leather down steep technical descents, with a grin and RSI from the vibration effects of the rock gardens and drop offs!  The simple job the Rad8 MTB glasses do is provide a clear view of the trail, stay fog free, adapt to the light conditions and protect your eyes from the trail debris.  If you do not notice you are wearing them, then we have achieved our aim of being the perfect solution for MTB riders.

Our new designs the 505 & 506 have been out a few months now and the feedback has been fantastic! 

Some of the feedback so far:-
Adam S. VERIFIED PURCHASE ***** 2019-01-14
I've done 5 rides in these glasses now and think they're brilliant! Very comfortable and light to wear, you stick them on your face and then forget they're there. The field of vision is a big improvement on my old Rad8 504s and they also seem to be much improved in terms of fogging up - I'm a very sweaty man and they have yet to show any signs of steaming on my rides so far. Very pleased and thoroughly recommended, it's just a shame I scratched them on my fourth wear thanks to a big old crash!

I ordered these on the recommendation of a mate. I placed the order on the Tuesday lunchtime and they were with me by Thursday in time for an evening MTB ride in the local forest. The glasses do exactly what they say and to be fair I hardly noticed them. Excellent service and an excellent product. The beanie hat was also a nice extra and is ideal for cool spring days.
Paul B. VERIFIED PURCHASE *****2019-04-09For me these are perfect. The glasses are so light that I don’t notice them, I can finally read my Garmin and maps while still being able to see down the trail / road and the transition works well. Wish I’d bought them years ago.
We love your feedback whatever it is. 

Enjoy your next ride and wear some great protective Rad8 MTB glasses!

As we approach the dark nights and the muddy weather the reason for wearing photochromic mtbglasses is a simple one for trail riding; no changing lenses, you stay protected and for the most part the styles look pretty good.

Before we close the year and get into next year we still have a short promotion where you can get a discount of some great tried and tested designs that will keep you fog free and moving on the trails . £30 off until the 6th November.

We still have a few more options in development but let me know what you think of these styles.

many thanks Rad8

With the cold damp weather of the standard British winter MTBglasses can steam up on the tough uphill climbs on the the MTB trails.  Now is a good time to clean your glasses and test the anti-fog coating still works.

​Cleaning your glasses. Run the lenses under running water to remove the grit and mud. Use a soft cloth and warm soapy water to wipe the grease and grime off gently cleaning the lenses.  Once clean allow the lenses to air dry and you will keep the anti-fog coating in tip-top condition for your next ride.

Anti-fog coatings differ in quality and effectiveness from different manufacturers. The Rad8 anti-fog coating is bonded to the inside of the lenses and is durable and can be refreshed with effective cleaning.  Anti-fog coatings will get damaged and scratched from the grit an grime so it it best to clean the mud off your lenses with running water.  To test the effectiveness of your current glasses try the following test.

Rad8 MTBglasses are designed and tested by the MTB test team and will keep your vision protected on the MTB trails longer.

MTB glasses  are essential kit for riding off road.  MTB glasses will protect your eyes from UV light, trail debris and the odd branch and trailing bramble determined to injure you. MTB glasses by their nature will get damaged over time so when you are choosing your next pair there are only 2 things worth considering.....

Rad8 MTBglasses will give you one of the better options, the frames are light and secure, the lenses are photochromic and both replaceable and available with prescription lenses
