RipClear Moto Goggle Lens Protection Product Review
If you can choose one annoying thing about getting your gear ready, what can you choose? For me it’s changing goggle lenses; even though some goggle brands (like Oakley and Scott) are easier to change than the others, I still never enjoy installing a whole new lens. Well RipClear makes protective lenses for almost any situation that needs clear vision, from Go Pro’s, goggles and in many cases mobile phone screen protectors, RipClear has something for everything. They reached out to Keefer Inc. Testing to ascertain if we'd be thinking about trying some goggle lens protectors and also, since Keefer has watched me fumble with lenses several times he sent them my way. In the pack of lens protectors there's two universal fit goggle protectors, two wet wipes, one micro fiber cloth and 2 dust removal sheets together with step by step instructions. To be 100% honest, my first time installing a protector I messed it all up and had to junk one before determining the entire process and fitment. Seeing as these are universal fit, with regards to the goggle, you may have to trim the sides to match between the tear off posts in your lens (at the very least I did for the Scott Prospects). Once the protector was trimmed I ensured the lens was perfectly clean and carefully installed the “RipClear” following a instructions closely.

One thing I noticed was that I must be careful ensuring the perimeters were all the way down also to ensure that the bubbles were out from underneath the protector before riding. If there are any bubbles or a lifted edge and you also venture out to get a ride, it collects debris and makes the high spots noticeable inside your field of view, which can be annoying for a lot of riders. If everything is installed correctly you could ever so slightly understand the side of the protector although not enough being bothersome. The reason RipClear started selling goggle lens protectors is really because nobody likes changing lenses continuously (and it’s expensive). These can help make your lenses last longer and are generally claimed to produce the lens stronger (although I never tested the theory). After some time with the RipClear protectors I have to state definitely more scratch resistant (specifically in the Costa Rican mud in places you may or may not have ran beyond tear offs, thus forcing said rider to have to wipe the lens with muddy gloves) than your bare goggle lens and I haven’t needed to change lenses normally. After some use and abuse realize peel up around the edges and that’s when it’s time for it to replace them. You can just take off the old one, clean the lens and install a whole new RipClear. While the not in the lens stays much more scratch resistant, the within remains the standard lens.

I realized that after to be able to use my lens longer durations of time, the interior of the lens really starts to take much more of a beating (especially in dusty conditions). If I were required to put various onto it I would say that a lens lasts 1.5 to 1.75 times more than lacking a RipClear. So depending on how much a lens costs for the goggle (anywhere from $10-$40 nowadays) a collection of RipClear Lens protectors ($20 for a pack of 2) may be valued at a purchase to get a bit more life from your lens (plus you won’t be cussing for your goggles or maybe your wife and changing lenses normally). I would say my main gripe about the strategy is that it’s slightly difficult to obtain the protector on perfectly and possess no bubbles between your lens and protector. As of moto tear offs lens protection provides a universal protector that matches relating to the tear off posts, but after talking using the company they plan to release a few goggle specific (to the widely used models) protectors soon, that may have holes for tear off posts and reach further for the edge of the lens. The company inform me that provided that you will find there's need for a thing that wants a protector, they'll be delighted to make it. I think for more hardcore moto riders this may not be the best product because let’s be honest, some moto riders are divas about field of vision and might have an overabundance of money than your average blue collar off-road rider. I first are derived from an off-road background and I can really view a requirement of making lenses keep going longer, particularly when conditions get nasty.
