which goggles?

[nadeem]

Can anyone recommend a decent set of goggles to use with a Tour X for off-roading...?

i use scott goggles. i also have a tour-x, but i'd consider a lighter & more off road orientated helmet for off road use.

This is the sort of gear that the well-dressed off-roader is using these days:

I wear a pair of Oakley MX frame I think with pins , they work really well, I also use tear offs cheaper than roll systems and don't go wrong usually about 6 tear offs before it starts distorting.

Progrip are good. Plenty of foam around the eye pieces and the Progrip system really keeps the strap in place.

I second the Pro-grip opinion, I use their double glazed reactolite lenses, 'cos I don't like bright lights and I don't like steamed up goggles in forestry . Roll offs are OK in most conditions, if you prepare them correctly, but for occasional off road use and non competitive riding, more trouble than they are worth. Tear-offs are also a PITA on the road, as the tabs flutter like you have a bat stuck to the side of your lid. Easiest option is to a) not follow too closely to anyone, b) stop and clean them regularly.

OAKLEY O FRAME

Oakley O frame enduro goggles, double glazed so zero fogging.

If you wear glasses, the Scott OTG (Over Top of Glasses (?)) goggles are a good bet. They're extra deep to ensure a gap between glasses and goggle lens.

Thanks guys - I'm pickin' up a set of the pro-grip reactolite lensed goggles tomorrow
