Goggles - Oakley MX Airbrake
I just picked up these new Oakley MX Airbrake goggles.
http://moto.oakley.com/ I honestly do not believe in paying a lot of $$ for goggles. But I had studied up a lot on different ones and these seemed to fit my needs the best. So I bucked up and got them. I have to say (IMO) these are great!! I quickly cut the strap and installed my Quick Release Straps - easy fix. While riding yesterday by the amount of air they get and the clarity I honestly did not feel as though I had goggles on. Which is why I searched for so long. Some goggles feel as thought you are looking through a tube and your side vision is cut off. Not these - It was like wearing no goggles and I could see everything with out having to turn my head to see from side to side. I bought from Ebay brand new for $145 + free shipping and had them in 2 days. |
I want !!!!

GGer Matt from AZ showed these to me several weeks ago.
I have so many over- used goggles that I don't know what to do with them all. I can replace the cheesy lensa but the ratty foam/felt is here to stay. |
Thanks for the info.
I hate goggles for the very reason you said, limit my view. Don't mind spending the $$$ for something that works. Any fogging issues at low speed? |
Honestly think that is a hard one to overcome.
But a lot of that dpreventions on outdoor temperature and of course how much y'all sweat. I was sweating like a mofo last ride and had some fogging. FYI...The Smith Goggles spray cleaner works pretty good for fog prevention. |
The fog seems to be my biggest battle. Get into some nasty rainforest single track and almost instantly the fog takes over and visibility goes to crap.
|
I have made some "anti fog" goggles for use when conditions are colder, wetter, and non-dusty. I cut all the foam off the top to allow for more air flow.
|
Those look great but they wouldn't work for me. The first time that I looked the other way one of my dogs would have them in the corner of the garage chewing them to ribbons.:rolleyes:
|
I have problems with goggles fogging and have been using Dragon Mdx dual lense goggles for years now.
No fogging and work great. Cheers Mark |
