Man, crazy to think how popular the Sutros have become. I posted on Instagram the night I bought a pair back on Feb 19, 2019, and I remember people telling me how ugly they were. Now, all those people are wearing them. Its all I can wear now while out on the bike. Bravo Oakley.
Love my Jawbreakers so much, I ended up buying the Prizm Low Light replacement lenses. They work very well, aside from the ghosting issues they present on pretty much every source of light (headlights, taillights, etc).
@@Ken419_ There's not much to say. They do what they're supposed to do and are clear enough to let you see in darker days. But they have an issue with artificial light sources (read: cars, bikes, etc), known as ghosting, which means you see the light source and up to three reflections of said light source that surround it. It's not a huge deal, but it is relatively distracting. It may have to do something with the shape of the lenses the Jawbreaker frames use or with the Prizm coating, as the stock Prizm Road lenses also present a similar, albeit far less pronounced, ghosting issue.
I just got the Flak 2.0 with the prizm lenses. Very nice indeed. Crisp view. Very clear. I got screwed out of the soft case though and was only given the black cloth bag. Shame.
JogBird it’s better that way, It’s different from decades ago, nowadays Asia in general have better manufacturing factories, more on-site engenders and skilled workers than USA, it’s better to just let the USA factories to assemble than manufacture the components, well at least the assemble parts can get them the “made in USA” sticker.
$150usd for two piece of plastic molded in Asia. Name brand glasses have to be the most mindboggling markup of all apparel. You're basically paying for all the global marketing (biggest $$) and a USA based HQ that employs all the various administration teams.
@@suminshizzles6951 - A) Who said anything about knockoff Fauxleys? B) Not all Oakley models boast that shotgun claim, and many other brands also have impact resistance.
I have +4.5 diopter varifocals, I can use fixed lenses to see my computer or the road ahead but not both. A pair of £5.00 clear glasses from Halfords and I'm sorted. They go over my varifocals and hold them steady. And I get a pair of safety glasses.
I love my Sutro glasses with Jade lens. I also have a Low Light lens. and Road replacement lens which I interchange. I’ve also just ordered the 24k lens. The lens is not fixed in the frame at all and popping it out and replacing it is super simple. Replacement lenses aren’t that widely available so I believe that Oakley prefer to have us think that we need to buy a whole new pair of glasses if we want the different shades of lens.
I have an off-topic bike tech question, I hope you don’t mind if I post it here. I’m just getting back on the bike after nearly 10 years of not riding seriously. Will any of the new gps-based bike computers work with my old Powertap SL wireless power meters? Or do I have to invest in a new power meter if I want to use one of the latest cycling computers, like a garmin or wahoo or lenzyne (sp?) etc. Please help.
Hey GCN. I love your videos. But when and how are the winners drawn? I've seen some drawn on the GCN show. But you should put more details in the video description. Thanks.
Sunny day, dappled tree cover, holes impossible to spot with the prizm lens... Wish I’d kept my old positive red M frames! And the yellow lens was the dogs breakfast for dark days! Another triumph of marketing 😬
Okay, so I just helped TH-cam by rating this video. And I gave it five stars. Not life-changing or anything, but it's Ollie. And how could I not give him five stars?
@@fast.biking_freddy apparently can't see through my current glasses how 8 frames in sub-subcategory are "all over" and if any of them are specifically cycling ones. So if you want to purchase an e.g. dioptric Jawbraker through the designated tab, there is no such way.
PSA request: What are the sunglasses that are causing all the facial injuries during crashes, called? nvm, turns out they're these ones, Oakley Jawbreakers.... well named it turns out. See Fuglsang's TdF crash .
th-cam.com/video/2vBN5F_gGY8/w-d-xo.html Ouch. That does look like it could have been teh glasses as the blood is streaming from a spot that the helmet would have protected under normal circumstances.
For those who wish to use jawbreakers but can’t for lack of RX inserts, well I found an rx insert on eBay that fits inside the jawbreakers PERFECTLY they’re called ESS P-2B safety glasses Rx insert. I haven’t put RX in mine yet but like I said they fit PERFECTLY.
So your now wondering if you should have said there were only 2 prizes and kept the third for yourself.... So now I’m wondering if in fact there were More and you and Si both grabbed a sneaky pair. ... unwritten rules of cycling 🤔
I love all the detail Oakley puts into its glasses

The sutro looks amazing...(And they are obviously key to win TDF)
I have 2 pairs of Sutros, one with the low light lens. It's obviously not the cheapest way to go about it, but they are so cool and comfortable!
Come for the sunglasses ... stay for the moshing ... leave for the disco 😁
Good luck to the entrants, Oakley will make some people very happy.

Oh, i was looking to buy the tdf edition.
Hey. One can change the Sutro lenses. You can change if you wish/or interchange!
I love the jaw breakers
And i won it! 😃
Oakley was bought out by Luxxotica a few years back and now make their stuff in asia and only do final assembly in the USA (snapping things together)

I have the Sutro. Great pair of glasses! Only downside is that you can't change the lens.
Nice! Looks like great coverage.
I have Sutro and you can change the lens 👌
I was thinking of getting low light jawbreakers for the cx season but after entering this I will have to wait
Got the photochromic lenses and they've been great.
I love your videos you have got me into road biking
Awesome, glad to hear it!
I rock the Flight Jacket Prizm Snow for road riding. For the looks, obviously.
NICE!
They also have deep water and shallow water prizm depending on where you choose to fish so you can see the fish better.

Yup very easy to change.
The Sutro’s and larger lens sunglasses are perfect for my big head 🎃 🕶👍
Ideal!
Thanks, Ollie, still a big Oakley fan am I. And lol, Sutros are good for disco. And good for watching Mama Mia on date night, too.
Man, I'd love to get my hands on those! Can correction lenses be installed on both models though?
The Sutro look massive!
I need those lenses I've been wanting a clear pair for ages but these ones will be much better
Awesome thanks !!!
Nice presents. Good luck everyone. Thanks to Oakley and GCN!!
Cheers Richard!
Oakleys are beautiful. I’m in!
love it! never go wrong with black. good job oakley! tnx GCN!
Those Oakleys Rock ⚡️
Are Roka the new Oakley? Will the Race Jackets get a reboot or are they custom for Geraint?
Ollie you are hilarious 😂, I learn about cycling while laughing when you present something. Keep it coming 👍🏻
Nice one Julio!
Hmm so how many "watts" can you save wearing them glasses ?
Help me choose: Oakley Sutro S or Julbo Rush? (Non chromatic)
Go go go GCN
I have 2 Oakley Ferrari version and Jawbreaker there are good for my activity
#askgcntech I love painting Oakley sunglasses 😎💛💚💙💜❤🎨🕶🕶

They're awesome. I've been looking for some decent moshing sunglasses for ages!!
Have you given them away
Can you do a 2020 specialised bike review? Maybe the Allez for us beginner riders!
Afraid we don't do reviews on GCN!
I will love to have the Jawbreaker !! The style of it is amazing 😎😃🙌
A few hours before this video was I released, I just bought new custom jawbreakers...
Ooft, which ones?
GCN Tech bought ones that were full white except the icon carrier and icon. The icon carrier and icon is blue and I have a photochromatic lens.
FInally another giveaway. Thankyou.
Love the jawbreaker i want it to pair with my bike
Please review the most important item in cycling>>>different brands of epo?
So these are better than the 3M safety sunglasses I ride with?
Nope
Hey GCN. I love your videos. But when and how are the winners drawn? I've seen some drawn on the GCN show. But you should put more details in the video description. Thanks.
All details are in the giveaway details.
Unboxings are announced on the GCN Tech Show, GCN Show giveaways are announced in the GCN Show.
Bruh, gcn does a glasses giveaway after i bought a Roka 😧
Would be great if i get another one tho 👌
Haha! Which ones did you go for?
that's a nice giveaway. wow. one of these days i'll win something, maybe even a race. great show!
Hehe, we know the feeling...
If i win i will make a longer route
There were really four pairs, weren't there?
Great value for your money
good video, thanks!
Jawbreaker or Flight Jacket?
#askgcntech When does the giveaway end?
Sunny day, dappled tree cover, holes impossible to spot with the prizm lens... Wish I’d kept my old positive red M frames! And the yellow lens was the dogs breakfast for dark days! Another triumph of marketing 😬
Hope i can win this two beautiful sunglasses 😎
Okay, so I just helped TH-cam by rating this video. And I gave it five stars. Not life-changing or anything, but it's Ollie. And how could I not give him five stars?
Wow! Nc shades 😊.. I'm from the Philippines... And I wish i win this Shades! Because I don't have a shades.. when I biking..
Parehas tay
These are sick !!!!
I hole i can win the sunglasses
i like your videos 😍👍
Oakley will win the Tour De' France
I don't like the big logos on the Jawbreakers.
Those Jawbreakers look awesome
Good luck everybody🤘
Those jawbreakers 😱😱 just wish Oakley did prescription sunglasses. I can't wear contacts.
Martin Linnett They do! Even the jawbreakers. SportRx does prescription sports sunglasses
@@Kbo513 thanks very much I didn't know that. I'll get looking
Somehow Ollie, though being a superb cycling presenter, is really not the guy you’d expect to meet in a mosh pit!
You never know...
@@gcntech no chance!!!!!
You can keep the glasses. I just want the case for my banana storage (that's not a euphemism by the way).
🤣 hack!
Unfortunately I do not like the current design of Oakley glasses - espacially I don't like these giant spectacle lenses.
Each to their own!
Yeah, i agree. I dont like those big ole fat glasses. Flak, M2 or radars's for me. Those huge glasses make you look like a knob.
Love the Jawbreakers. I would love to win and sport them in front of my cycling team: VivintCycling - V-Team.
Save me one of those ... Pleeeease
Love the giveaways, but I have enough pairs of Oakley shades to keep me going for quite a while. Good luck to the lucky winner...
? Of course they do! We announce them in the GCN or GCN Tech shows.
I collect Oakley glasses and it would be nice to place and wear them in my collection, because I am a cyclist
oakley now lacks of a good Photochromic lens
uomorana71 I have a pair of the supposed photochromic jawbreakers there useless on interchangeable light conditions.
Only one year late!
feels good
great video
To bad it costs a fortune to get prescription versions of Oakleys sunglasses...
Is it ever possible?! Haven't seen 'em mentioning even dioptric inserts. Or do you refer to some aftermarket sollutions?
@@feedbackzaloop it's all over their website! I don't understand why you didn't know that

Cheers Julius !
Im a fan for many years and participating in every giveawaysss but i cantt win
Of course we are!
I entered i hope i can win it will mean alot to me if i win
I don't think the three winners are going to actually use the jawbreaker. No one wants to scratch that beautiful piece of eyewear.
🤣
So your now wondering if you should have said there were only 2 prizes and kept the third for yourself....
So now I’m wondering if in fact there were More and you and Si both grabbed a sneaky pair.
... unwritten rules of cycling 🤔
🕶️🕶️🕶️ I hope I win! 🤞
Jawbreaker really good glasses
Hope i win :)
No chance of winning, unlucky surname lol. 🤪 Love the channel any jobs going?
Hehe, we actually do!
Yah I won
Top!!!!
I love my jawbreakers. The shit about them making you see things you can't with your normal eyesight is BS
Love the Jawbreakers. I would love to win and sport them in front of my cycling team : tnt Cycling club / on instgram / tnt Cycling club
