The photochromic lens adapts optimally to any variations in brightness along the route. Starting with a slightly transparent color, it ensures clear visibility even with minimal light.

Skiing and Cross-Country Skiing: ROUBAIX can be an ideal substitute for ski goggles and cross-country ski goggles. The lightness and grip of the glasses guarantee excellent protection from the air. The grippy rubber sections significantly increase the solidity of the glasses on the face, even with strong vibrations.

Water Sports: ROUBAIX is also appreciated by those who do water sports, as it protects from splashes of water that could distract the athlete from their performance, in addition to the adhesion and high protection characteristics.

Tennis: ROUBAIX is excellent for playing tennis since the clip-on holder offers a wide lateral view, and the photochromic lenses allow play both indoors and outdoors with any type of lighting.

Regardless of the sport practiced, ROUBAIX represents the ultimate in photochromic lens technology, adding the aesthetic touch typical of glasses with mirror lenses.

View Technology:

The mirrored photochromic lens of the new ROUBAIX eyeglasses for cycling, running, trekking, and all outdoor activities is ideal for athletes who require corrective lenses. The holder for prescription lenses is made of TR90 (the same material as the frame), specifically designed to accommodate corrective lenses for optimal vision during sporting activity.

The supported correction intervals for prescription lenses include: Maximum sphere +/- 8.00 and Cylinder (astigmatism) +/- 2.00. The clip is large and can also accommodate progressive and bifocal lenses.

Clip Dimensions for Lenses:

Lens Height: 40mm
Lens Length: 45mm
Lens Base: 6

To obtain customized prescription lenses, it is advisable to consult your trusted optician directly. The approximate cost of single vision lenses can vary between €50 and €80, depending on the additional treatments chosen, such as anti-fog, anti-reflection, etc. For bifocal and progressive lenses, the cost can range between €220 and €300, depending on the treatments selected.

Technical Characteristics and Materials:

The new DCHROM® photochromic lenses are lenses that, when exposed to UV radiation or sunlight, start a reversible chemical reaction and darken. Once the light exposure ends, the lenses gradually return to their initial state of transparency. They are made of high-quality polycarbonate. This material has two very important technical aspects: it significantly reduces the weight of the lens compared to conventional materials, and it represents safety in the event of an impact, as it will not generate any fragments that could damage the eye. These high-tech filters also protect from UV rays, ensuring safety and comfort.

The new DCHROM® lenses represent an evolution in photochromic lens technology. They start from slightly veiled purplish-red colors and reach category 3 with red sheen during maximum performance. In addition to the remarkable speed of light-dark change, they provide a notable sense of relaxation for your eyes, even on days with very strong sunlight and prolonged use.

The ultra-light material of the frame is TR90, a particular combination of carbon fiber and nylon. Despite the size of the frame, the total weight of the ROUBAIX cycling and running glasses is only 30 grams. Made specifically for athletes who want products created with high-quality materials that offer maximum protection and safety. The frame is flexible and adapts to the shape of the head to ensure optimal comfort without being too tight while offering maximum safety.

All rubber parts, including the nose pads, are made of soft hypoallergenic megol material with grip technology, ensuring maximum stability and preventing any possible movement of the glasses towards the tip of the nose caused by vibrations or head movements.

ROUBAIX is a must for those looking for photochromic eyeglasses for cycling, running, or hiking with ultra-light mirrored lenses. Ideal for athletes who practice road cycling, mountain biking, running, trail running, or hiking in the mountains.

This material makes the eyeglasses for cycling, running, and hiking with DCHROM® mirrored photochromic lens 20% lighter than conventional materials, more resistant to accidental impacts and stress, and increases its durability over time.
