I noticed the change and thats when i made the switch to laminate tear offs and i feel in love with them i can put upwards of 30 on a pair of goggles if i need that much
Same problem, noticed I can’t run as many. Swapped to the laminated with a perimeter seal for the wet we get to solve both problems. Also any of my different style 100’s fog. Scott’s & Oak’s much better at not fogging. They offer better airflow vents.
I used Scott Goggles for the longest time, but always ended up having trouble finding tear-offs and replacement lenses after a couple years. I recently switch to 100% because as you said, they're common as dirt and even my local bike repair shop sold the tear-offs. I've used a set of tear-offs one time with them, but had trouble with the ends of them sticking together meaning I'd pull 2-3 off at a time instead of just one. Haven't really tried running them again since then, and wasn't really impressed. I think I'm going to give the Oakley goggles a try next.
Bet it’s a supplier issue. Not being able to obtain the same plastic they normally purchase or make, so like many manufacturers they substituted product. However if they admit it, or their customer support has no idea, they could be facing massive recalls hurting the profit margins
Ive always used Oakley, mostly the cheaper O frames. They've always worked well. I tried one set of 100% and made one loop with them and gave them away to a friend. They fogged up on me pretty bad compared to Oakleys. I will say though with the O frame tear-offs I can only stack 3 or 4 before the clarity diminishes too much to be worth it. Never tried the higher end Oakley though or roll offs.
Was a 100% guy from the start. Recently experimented with Oakley Airbrakes and Scott Prospects. I've just sold all my 100%s to move to Scott. I had terrible fogging issues with Oakley. Scott fits my face better, has a wider field of view, doesn't fog, and the tear-offs work much better with the 2 post design.
I use the laminated tear offs from 100% and have always loved them. I can even stack two laminated packs for a total of 14 pulls and see clearly with no issues. I saw you say below you had an issue with pulling them all off. I've done that once and it was only because I accidentally grabbed them where they were folded when I pulled them. As long as you make sure to only grab the end of the tearoff when you pull you shouldn't have any issues.
I agree I recently purchased some from my local dealer and put on 4 and I could not see sh*t. (Not impressed) as I really enjoy the look and geometry of these goggles, hopefully it’s fixed in the future.
Scott Prospect/Fury are very good and many tear-off/roll off options are available. They use a 4 post tear-off system. Just make sure they fit the opening of your helmet as they are large (and don not pinch your nose).
All of the %100 ones I’ve ever bought have the paper pieces in between each one, and I’ve been getting these since 2016. I didn’t know they sold thinner ones like that, mind you I’m in Canada.
@@DirtBikingwithDonnie I rock Leatt 6.5 and have a 5.5 set up with roll offs. Haven’t used the roll offs yet but they do look easy to use, usually I keep a soft rag in behind the plate to wipe off the goggles when it’s been wet.
I have a problem with air ventilation on goggles. I will have my contacts fall out with Scotts, 100%, thor, and a few others. Leatt is the only brand that almost completely cures that problem. And the lenses are next level strong.
@@brandonmcelroy5899 totally agree.. seen a buddy get a branch above his eye once, its easy to pierce lenses, but the Leatts give me more confidence they will hold up
Thanks for sharing! I was on the fence and not sure between the standard or perimeter laminated. I’ll avoid the standard for the time being. Hopefully they aren’t too bad
After posting this video I learned from others that Moose Racing and FMF make tear offs for these goggles. They are both much better than the 100% tear offs. Thanks for watching!
It's a clear plastic film so not sure how long it would take them to break down. When trail riding I typically pull one off while stopped and stuff it in a pocket. When racing it's about the only way to keep clear vision and stopping is not an option.
Interesting. My kid wears the 100% youth googles and the tear offs are like your "newer" ones. I only put tear offs on his for protection of the lens, keeping them clean but have found any more than 3 really get difficult for me to see through. I have the Scott Fury (same lens as prospect) and havent had that issue.
In my honest opinion, I've always said 100% goggles were cheap garbage overpriced because of hype. Kids only bought them because they saw pros wearing them. Best goggle I've ran is Oakley Airbrake Rolloff system. My everyday pair is going on 5 years with original lense and I just purchased a second pair. Scott Prospects are a close second, but I've had a few issues with them.
I don't mean to rag on 100% because I do know there are tons of people that do like them. But my experience with about 4 of their models has been bands stretching easily, easily scratched lenses, foam coming unglued, and their rolloff system is outdated. The airbrake can easily be changed from rolloff to tearoffs, but the roll off works so good I've never used the tearoffs. I will measure them tonight for thickness and let you know.
@@shoefly757 One thing that has steered me away from the 100% rolloffs is the side vision is severly limited. Do you notice the side vision being reduced with the airbrake rolloffs?
@@DirtBikingwithDonnie Not at all, but I will say the updated ones I just bought do stick out maybe 1.5 mm more than the old style and I haven't ridden with them yet. They are expensive but like I said, other than film I haven't put a dime into the one pair for 5 years. The Scott Prospects can sometimes be had for $100 and is as close as I've found to the airbrake
@@DirtBikingwithDonnie I have a pair of the 100% rolloffs, but they seem to get snagged on limbs and end up in a bird's nest. I prefer to wear those over tear offs when it's wet out but just isn't worth the aggravation..happened this past weekend matter of fact. I'm going to look into the Oakley's.
It might be ok. I’ve gotten a lot of feedback here and on Facebook in the past 2 days. Others seem to have better luck with laminated tear offs but I also learned that Moose Racing makes tear offs to fit 100% goggles and they are reportedly very good. I’ve ordered some of those to try.
I recently bought some roll off googles and I’ll use them when it’s really muddy or raining but they do limit peripheral vision quite a bit otherwise. I’d rather use standard tear offs when it’s not super muddy
