NRC Cycling Glasses: Road Racing, Road or MTB

NRC, form and substance in cycling eyewear

From Varese to the rest of the world, the step is a short one. And behind the success of NRC eyewear lies an artisanal production approach that never gives up on experimentation. Sport models and lifestyle eyewear alternate throughout the NRC catalog. What they all have in common is rigorous craftsmanship that becomes hand-finished in the details and finishes. Lightweight, durable, and above all clear: NRC cycling eyewear is made to show you the road in all its essence. And to keep you from getting distracted when the gradients become punishing. To cyclists’ demands, the Lombardy-based company responds with quality. And to keep standards high, it tests every product for a long time before bringing it to market. The result is eyewear guaranteed for life.

Uncompromising quality by Zeiss

It all starts with the lenses, because they are what open up your view of the route. And NRC’s uniqueness rests on a partnership with a brand that needs no introduction. Exclusive to NRC in the sports segment, Zeiss lenses turn every ride into an official race. Fitted to the most advanced eyewear, they are made from non-deformable nylon and engineered to last. Flexible and durable, they are also treated with Ri-Pel hydrophobic treatment, which washes away water droplets and helps prevent stains and fingerprints. And if, in addition to safety, you also care about style, you simply cannot do without eyewear with Almatt+ lenses: the striking matte mirrored finish with glossy inserts that is exclusive to NRC. Photochromic, polarized, tinted, prescription: you choose how to customize your lenses.

A frame for every discipline

Form and substance: NRC eyewear frames embrace your riding style, enhancing aesthetics as well as performance. Differentiated according to discipline, they are designed to withstand impacts and adverse weather conditions. NRC X1 and X1RR: these are the models also favored by road professionals. Extremely lightweight thanks to the lenses integrated into the temples, they are the benchmark for aerodynamics. For mixed terrain, however, it is best to opt for a more enveloping frame, such as the full-rim version of NRC X2 or the half-rim version of the X3. A celebration of off-road, meanwhile, is the NRC P-Ride eyewear with its ultra-wraparound structure that stands up to dust and mud splashes. Finally, if you are looking for a more relaxed pair of eyewear, you might opt for the more affordable P3, P5 and S11. Without pushing technological evolution to the extreme, they are reliable travel companions on any route.
