Tifosi sunglasses lens removal question

[SadieKate]

My instructions are for a frame as shown here. I find it works best to have my thumbs on top of the frame at the middle of the lens to pull back against.

I have a great pair of Tifosi glasses that came with interchangable lenses. Here's my experience:

• Pull glasses from case and stare at them quizzically.
• Push and pull at lenses gently, hoping to figure out how the hell to remove the lens.
• Give up and put extra lenses back in my sock drawer.
• Clean fingerprints from glasses.
• The next time I'm riding in the dark/dusk/fog/rain swear I'm going to figure it out next time.
• Repeat as necessary.

Thanks, SadieKate, for your instructions--I'll give that a try tonight!

Ha, I know the feeling.

Let me know how it goes.

This one made me laugh SFA. Been there done that. Still have a pair still in the drawer.

I have the same problem with my Oakleys. Since they have Rx lenses, I always get the folks at the shop to help me...that way if they break them it won't be my fault.

I have a pair of Tifosi that I keep in the car for emergencies, with full frame. The best advice I could give is that they almost certainly won't break, but will be a pain...I've changed them exactly once, and don't want to try again. Which is why for cycling I swear by my Smith Factor Maxes, which I changed in the car the other day on the passenger seat with one hand and without looking down during a decent snowfall to get my rose "snow special" lenses in.

I have these also and love them especially once I figured them out. I do the same as SK
