Bike Setup:
N/A

Summary:
I got the Moab HP on sale from the Performance website after reading all the good reviews about them. I have to say, I agree with the reviews.

I already had a nice pair of Nike sunglasses, but since I'm commuting I needed some that allowed me to change the lenses to clear for night riding. Not only were these on sale, but they come with three different lenses, including the clear. Most of the others I looked at didn't came with two lenses, none clear, and were also much more expensive.

These have a great field of vision since the frame is only across the top. They fog up when you stop, just like every pair of sunglasses I've ever worn while riding, but they clear when I start back up much faster than others I've worn. I honestly didn't know what to expect, but I'm happy with these.

I don't wear prescription glasses, so I can't speak to their Ocular Docking System.

These are a great value, even at their retail price. The only reason I would say a four on the overall rating rather than five is because I have used better glasses than these, but the better ones were much more expensive.

Strengths:
They come with three lenses. The lenses are good quality, have great coverage and ventilation. It's also very easy to swap the lenses. So far, they stay in place on my face with no problems.

Weaknesses:
They could be lighter. Although they feel fine on me, people with big heads may want to make sure the earpieces don't pinch.

Price Paid:  $75.00 at Performance

Favorite Ride:
Ruston MTB Course

Bike Setup:
Softride, Ultegra

Summary:
I have worn the Moabs with the ocular insert for more than five years and love them. I ride 20 miles most weekdays year round and take longer rides on Saturdays and wear the Moabs each time. Although they fog up when I stop, I can live with that. Smith customer service cannot be beaten. I have worn out several nose pieces and they have sent me replacements for free even though I have offered to pay each time.
I originally went to a website for someone that had a dislike for Oakley. They recommended the Moabs because they were les expensive and had interchangeable lenses.

Strengths:
Inexpensive, three lenses, unbeatable customer service

Weaknesses:
Nose piece slowly dissolves, fogs up at stop signs

Similar Products Used:
Ray Ban Aviators with prescription lenses
