Specs and Trainers Advice

[Nomadski]

1. I have some cheapy cycling glasses that have 4 different shades I can clip in and out, and it does the job fine, but am looking for some fancier ones that will change shades without me having to stop and swap the bits in and out. Dont know what they are called, but am sure someone must have one, know of a decent pair.

2 .Also, am still fighting the temptation to go SPD, so am still on my chunky V12 flat pedals, but need some good water resistant trainers. Have heard Goretex is meant to be ok? I know my feet will still get damp, and am planning on using them with some sealskinz, but want something to stop me hiding like a wuss everytime I have a day off and its raining...

3. On the subject of SPD, just in case I change my mind on Thursday when I go and buy this stuff, is there a decent goretex (or similar) decent SPD trainer that would go well with a Shimano M540 SPD pedals, or is this a fruitless search and I just go the giant overshoe route?

just go the giant overshoe route?

Photochromatic I think. I bought some from Planet X. Power Race, number of styles, from around £30.[/quote]

Hehe I dont know, they all just look rather large in the pictures :P

younggoldbloke - thanks for the suggestion, will go check out. Was looking at Rudy Projects but they seem a bit expensive.

Wonder if there are a pair of glasses that are photochromatic AND polarised? Seems hard to find.
