Full details

The POC Elicit Sunglasses are ultra-lightweight, frameless performance cycling sunglasses designed for adult cyclists seeking bold style, complete eye protection, and an expansive field of vision. Their key benefit is a barely-there feel during long rides, allowing for enhanced focus on the road. A potential caveat is that the minimalist design might not suit those preferring a more substantial frame.

FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for mountain biking?

While designed primarily for road cycling, the wide field of vision and robust eye protection can be beneficial for mountain biking. However, they may not offer the same level of impact protection as dedicated MTB goggles or eyewear with more robust frames.

How do I clean the lenses without damaging them?

Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. For dirtier lenses, rinse them under cool water and then gently wipe them dry with the microfiber cloth. Avoid paper towels or abrasive materials, and refrain from using harsh cleaning agents.

What is Clarity lens technology?

Clarity lens technology is developed by POC in partnership with optical leaders to provide enhanced contrast and color definition, leading to sharper vision and improved detail perception in various light conditions.

Can I replace the lenses on the POC Elicit Sunglasses?

The POC Elicit Sunglasses feature a frameless design. While some lens replacement options might be available through POC or authorized dealers, the process can be more involved than with framed eyewear. It is best to consult the official POC website or customer support for specific lens replacement procedures.

Are these sunglasses heavy?

No, the POC Elicit Sunglasses are specifically engineered to be ultra-lightweight, making them feel barely noticeable during use.

What is the main benefit of the frameless design?

The frameless construction significantly reduces weight and maximizes the field of view by eliminating any visual obstructions from a frame, allowing for better situational awareness.

What gender is this product designed for?

These sunglasses are designed as unisex and are suitable for adult riders regardless of gender.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or slip down the nose.

Ensure the temple arms are correctly positioned over your ears. For minor adjustments, a slight bending of the temple arms might help, but avoid excessive force. If the issue persists, consider if the fit is suitable for your facial structure or if alternative eyewear with adjustable nose pieces might be a better option.

Lenses fog up during intense activity or in humid conditions.

While the frameless design offers good ventilation, fogging can still occur. Ensure there is airflow around the lens. Periodically wipe the lenses with an anti-fog cloth or spray, or pause briefly to allow for ventilation.

Scratches appear on the lens.

Scratches can occur from improper cleaning or storage. Always use a microfiber cloth for cleaning and store the sunglasses in their protective case when not in use. Minor surface scratches may not significantly impact vision but deeper ones may require lens replacement.

Difficulty seeing details in low light.

The Clarity lens technology is optimized for specific light conditions. For riding in very low light or at night, a different lens tint or a dedicated low-light lens might be more appropriate. Consult POC for lens replacement options if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The POC Elicit Sunglasses are designed for immediate use. Simply remove them from their packaging and place them on your face. The lightweight frame and temple arms should rest comfortably on your ears and the bridge of your nose.

Compatibility: These sunglasses are unisex and designed for adult riders. They are primarily intended for road cycling but can be used for other outdoor sports where eye protection and wide vision are beneficial. The frameless design generally accommodates a wide range of head shapes.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your POC Elicit Sunglasses:

  • Clean the lenses regularly with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the lens coating.
  • When not in use, store the sunglasses in a protective case to prevent scratches and damage.
  • Avoid placing the sunglasses lens-down on hard surfaces.
  • Wash with mild soap and water if necessary, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a microfiber cloth.
