Troubleshooting
Sunglasses slip down the nose
Ensure the adjustable nose bridge is properly shaped to your face. Clean the nose pads and temple grips to maximize their grip.
Vision seems distorted or off-color
Confirm you are using the correct lens tint for the current light conditions. Check that the lenses are clean and free from smudges. Re-adjust the fit to ensure the glasses are sitting correctly on your face.
Scratches on the lenses
Minor surface scratches may be unavoidable with use. For significant damage, consider lens replacement. Always clean with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive surfaces.
Discomfort when wearing with a helmet
Adjust the temple arms of the sunglasses and the helmet straps to find a position where they do not interfere with each other. Ensure the sunglasses fit snugly on your face before putting on the helmet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Fine-tune the temple arms, especially the rubberized ends, to ensure they rest comfortably behind your ears and do not interfere with helmet straps.
Compatibility:
The POC Aspire sunglasses are designed to be compatible with most cycling helmets. Their slim profile and secure fit ensure they do not create pressure points when worn together.
