Plan to launch MAY 2009

Huge news for the sports men/woman that demands more for their sport, Oakley's design team have been busy developing their hugely popular Radar range. If you look at the image of Lance below, you can see he is almost looking through his frame as he looks up and out the top of his Radar lens…..
Radar XL will now place that frame much higher, so the athletes who tend to have their heads strained and look up to see their path, will now enjoy nothing but HDO plutonite in their view, and not a frame, you can see below with the white text frame, how much higher that center nose bridge is than a standard Radar nose bridge.

The center nosebridge height is 7mm higher than the standard Radar which positions the frame higher on the wearer’s face. This opens up the vertical periphery which is specifically beneficial road cyclists in more extreme aerodynamic positions, but also useful for any athlete that requires a wider field of view. You will also notice the new lens shape cut, which is a copy of the original Blade from the 80’s

It’s important to note that the Radar XL is a complement to the standard Radar and not a replacement. For most athletes the standard Radar will still provide an optimum fit and maximum performance while the Radar XL is more purpose-specific.

Keep lifting that bar Oakley!!!
