Question about sunglasses

This is slightly on topic, as the glasses came from a bike shop, long,
long ago.

I noticed on ebay that 80s sunglasses are selling, so I tried to look
up my old pair of Killer Loop sunglasses, but can't find them
mentioned anywhere (using google, ebay, etc.) The style is "Radical"
and there is also a code printed on the inside of the earpiece, "EOS
W1147 E"

Big, irridescent lens, shaped sort of like Oakley Blades. Anyway, I
want to try selling them, but don't have an idea if these are selling
right now (or if anyone else has a pair.) Any information is helpful.
Thanks!

You might try rec.bicycles.tech for this kind of info.

I found a pair of wraparound blue blockers with polarized lens for about
$15 at a Wal-mart of all places. Since they weren't really sunglasses I
put some 20% pass window tint film on the lenses for a 10% total light
pass. Since the sun gets sooo bright on a clear day the 10% of the light
that gets through is just fine with me. At night I take them off and
have pretty much cat type night vision.
It's cheap, not stylish, but sure gets the job done.

Can you read your digital watch or cycle computer with these on?

Phil H

Sure can, but the computer wants to have the sun on it for good
contrast. It's the computer, an el-cheapo Schwinn with a so-so LCD
display. Besides, we all know that seeing the road is the really
important part, and that is much easier without the sun blinding of no
sunglasses. Since they are total wrap arounds, it also keeps my eyes
safe from debris and side winds, which always make my eyes water and get
all salty. I did a whopping 30 miles in the mountains yesterday before
I realized that it was over 90 degrees and I was out of shape from the
winter.
'nuff about that, I need to ride more.
