100% Racecraft goggles


The small frame works well with almost any helmet, open or full-face. Good ventilation means the lens rarely fogs up, even on muggy days. Clear and tinted versions are included, along with 20 tear-offs for muddy racing. Replacement lenses can be found easily, from $12. All this makes the $90 price good value. We liked the fit for the most part, although the frame is a bit narrow.

We found the Racecrafts pinched our noses just a little. The field of view isn’t the best – the tear-off tabs can be seen in your peripheral vision – although we didn’t find this much of an issue when riding.

Price $90
