The brand new Oakley Encoder cycling sunglasses were just released to kick off the 2021 season. They feature an modernized 80s inspired frameless lens design, a new nosepiece and some solid construction. I tested these out with the Prizm Road Lens and black/red color for the last few weeks. I'll tell you what I thought about the new design, the lens, the arms, the nosepiece and how they do for fog reduction compared to other Oakey sunglasses like the Radar and Radar Advancer. Please let me know in the comments if you have any questions! It's ya boi! -Cyclist Pete

Sick Review dude! Just got myself some.

@cyclistpete2090 2 года назад

Nice nice! They are definitely rad!

@davidbutler1857 3 месяца назад

I wish the arms had more grip or were longer. They just don't stay in place to where I can forget about them.

@derzkoeradio 3 года назад

Hi! Nice glasses))) Do you have optical erosions near nose too?! Great distortion in nose triangle? But when looking straight forward it's okey... I've got 24k lenses. Awesome hi-quality shades

@cyclistpete2090 3 года назад

Thanks! They are pretty rad. I really like those 24k ones. But I hadn’t noticed anything earlier. I just tested them now and I can see a little haziness/distortion around the nose area. But it’s only at extreme angles, or if I’m cross eyed haha nothing I would notice using them normally

@derzkoeradio 3 года назад

Yes. It's ok when use them normally. But it should be when lense has shape like this. This is natural optical refraction. But sometimes when look down this refraction comes into view. Thank you. Have a nice day!

Looks like you ride around Tacoma near the port. Very cool.

@cyclistpete2090 Год назад

I do ride around that area sometimes! But this video was around the Seattle port, West Seattle, and the Seattle Waterfront Park

It's a pity that I couldn't find the right size for my face! Oakley has only one version of glasses for narrow faces, flack 2.0 xl. the rest are all huge

@dubai86 2 года назад

How is the fogging / ventilation performance as compared to radar advancer sir?

@cyclistpete2090 2 года назад

Yo. Not as good as the advancers when the nosepiece is pushed out. But they seem like they are pretty close

@dubai86 2 года назад

@@cyclistpete2090 thanks for the swift reply sir. because I'm thinking either to get a Kato or an Encoder. Mainly for running. And we live in hot country. Not sure kato/encoder will fog due to poor ventilation.

@DannyDL1ght 3 года назад

I have the radar ev path trail torch and i noticed that my nose is sweating most of the time, it’s the same with encoder?😱

@cyclistpete2090 3 года назад

Hmm I’m not sure. My nose sweat with these seems on par with other sunglasses. So are they slipping off your nose?

@DannyDL1ght 3 года назад

@@cyclistpete2090 they are not slipping, the nose pads are actually soft , maybe it’s because of the humidity or the lenses light transmission which is higher than usual 35%

@haroldmclean3755 3 года назад

Hey there , Do they pinch the sides of your head giving you a Headache after a few hours of wearing ?

@cyclistpete2090 3 года назад

I haven’t felt any discomfort from wearing them. I’ve only worn them for 2 hours at the most since I’ve had them. The side pressure seems about the same as my radars.

How do i take off the temples

@cyclistpete2090 2 года назад

I don't think you can. I think the only removable piece is the nosepiece rubber.

@vinodpadwal4567 Год назад

Which is best for marathon running.. Can we use this while running??

@cyclistpete2090 Год назад

Yeah, these could be used for marathon running. However, I'm not sure which lenses and frames would be the absolute best. It would likely be personal preference. The Oakley Radar Advancers are another great option, those have interchangeable lenses. The Prism Road would be a great all round lens for running in medium to bright conditions.
