Oakley Radar | $170
BikeRadar verdict
"A great shade, and if you need prescription lenses well worth the cost"
The Radar is a development of the classic M-Frame. It's more casual in appearance, but still very obviously a sport shade.
It’s hard to fault the fit – two different width nose bridges are supplied and you can pick from three sizes of lens – and Oakley’s hydrophobic lenses are nigh-on unbreakable, offer excellent coverage and no distortion.
Our pictured pair look odd because they have prescription lenses bonded to them (prescription Radars start at £225). While expensive, Oakley prescription sports shades are probably the best you can get.

User review of Oakley Radar
I had Briko shades before but compared to Oakley the fit was not that great. I got them in the Pitch lense shape with vents and the colour G30, which is ideal for mountain biking. Definitely worth the money.
