Okay, this might be a bit risqué for the prescribed forum content however I want these for cycling so I guess that makes it okay!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zl1w6SX3180&feature=related From 0:18-0:30 does anyone know any brands that stock sunglasses with a similar pronounced V shape? I can't find them off rudy project who I've been told supplied them?

Cheers.

They'll help me go faster, honest.

    There are at least 2 types of Rudy Project there. There are the Ekynox SX (but could be the Horus (both still in production) and there is the Tayo which was v.popular with Ullrich. Nice glasses and cheap compared to Oakley with comparable quality. Google Rudy Project and the model and you'll get various pics

    I've got some Rudy Project Tayo glasses which look a bit like that.

    Have you tried kontrol sports? I got my perscription sunglasses from them. They're excellent for price, quality and looks
    Bianchi. There are no alternatives only compromises!

    I was after sunglasses with a pronounced V shape (funny sunglasses come in all different shapes, except for the V bend being identical on all of them lol). I checked the prices and nearly died however. Thanks for the suggestions anyway.

    P.S.
    Who are the idiots that spend £100 on a pair of shades ?! Can't believe it.

    Which ever you buy make sure you wear them outside your helmet straps. I didn't and when I came off the lens was pushed into my cheek and I ended up in James Cook Hospital. :cry:
