Spy Scoop XS

Price Paid:  $50.00 at eBay

Favorite Ride:
France- Pyrenees

Bike Setup:
No matter.

Summary:
Looks good, nice lens--Blue ARC with SIlver gradient mirror--for most riding conditions. But lenses scratch easily.
Frames break for no apparent reason. Both my Scoop XS and my brother's pair broke in the exact same place, on arm behind the hinge.
Terrible customer srvice from SPY.
Never purchase another pair of SPY---They look cool but cheap quality.
Rudy Project is MUCH better quality and better customer service.

Strengths:
Decent looking frames, unique lenses.

Weaknesses:
Cheap quality frame. Spontaneously combust. Lenses scratch easily.
Horrendous customer service from Spy.

Summary:
These glasses fit perfectly on my head. They're very light too. Although the rubber material keeps the glasses on your face, they seem to disintegrate in time. Scoop XS gives the wearer a very cool look. I got the rubberized black with bronze lens.

Strengths:
Light and cool looking

Weaknesses:
Disintegrating rubber attachments

Summary:
These glasses in my opinion are just OK. The have a good fit as far as staying on your head, but I find things make it around the glasses and into my eyes quite often. The optics of the lenses are good, and the ability to change the lenses is a nice option too. I was happy with Spy until my glasses broke 2 weeks ago. The snapped at the hinge. In my opinion Spy's customer service it what really turned me off to these glasses. It has taken 2 weeks to reach someone there to get an RA#. I guess in summary I'd say they make a decent product, but if you buy them, hope you never have to contact the company.

Strengths:
Ability to change lenes.
Don't fall of easily.

Weaknesses:
CUSTOMER SERVICE

Summary:
Had these for a year. I had a problem with the lenses where they were uncleanable, but they replaced the lenses with no hassles.
They fit great, tight to the face and almost never have to be adjusted on your face, but over the summer, after it rained or when it rained, these things fogged terrible. Not sure if this is caused by the close proximity to your face or it just doesn't like humidity/temerature changes.

Strengths:
Fit
Customer Service

Weaknesses:
Fogging
