Optics company Dragon Alliance might not be that well known in the cycling world — at least, not yet — but it's big in the snowsports and moto world, known for producing cool-looking performance goggles and glasses. The Enduro X glasses are its outdoor activity offering, designed for mountain biking and trail running.
There are four versions of the Enduro X glasses to choose from: the black framed version with yellow tinted transition lenses that I've been testing; a black frame with copper and clear lenses; black frame with grey and clear lenses; and white frame with red ion and clear lenses. All of which feature a half-frame design.
I've tackled everything from steady road rides to downhill tracks wearing these and they've performed admirably, staying securely and comfortably in place and providing ample protection against the elements.

Reactive lenses for changing conditions
Optical clarity is excellent with only a very slight and subtle distortion at the periphery of the field of view.
The transition lenses reacted impressively quickly to brightening conditions, swiftly changing tint from the contrast-boosting yellow to a dark shade. Transitioning the other way was slightly slower, resulting in a temporary need to use 'the Force' to navigate after entering a dark wooded section after bright sunlight, but the optical clarity was such that it will still possible to make out the terrain for the few seconds it took for the lens to adjust.
Adjustable, secure fit
