The build quality is not as good as Oakleys. But neither are they as bad as Yello has clearly stated.

Nor is the lens quality, (IMHO, before anyone jumps down my throat):ohmy:

"could well be" is what I said NOT 'will be'. Did I say they were bad? Did I say they would break? Did I not only suggest that someone might just decide, after having used them, that they weren't any good? That is, not what they were looking for. I didn't say that they'd fall apart after one ride did I? As you seem to have taken it.

Dear lord, if anything, I thought I was stating the obvious!

The odd thing is that you seem to have elected on pick up on one phrase when if you'd consider the rest of what I originally wrote, you'd see that I was suggesting people actually give Lidl/Aldi specs a try!

If it helps any, I took Yello's post to mean "at that price, try them, if you don't like them you won't have lost much even if you do bin them after one ride".

Hope that helps.

Cheers Norm, that was my intended meaning! Though I fully admit that in forums/written word, the intented meaning isn't always obvious. :smile:

Indeed. And it often proves even more difficult to try and explain a misunderstanding, once someone has mis-read something.

I've owned a pair of Oakleys in the past and the arms came detatched from the main frame too often. Because of the warranty i was able to send them off and get them fixed. customer service was poor and ultimately they just sent me a new pair and the same problem occured over and over again.
so, a pair of lens for under a fiver is defo worth a punt. my current pair cost me £80 i still cant justify why they are worth so much. that said they are incredibly robust so shoving them into my pocket on rainy days ar dropping them on a daily basis has seen them hold up well. oh, and the shade on the lens changes with the light:becool:
