Go Ahead, Geek Out Over These Ultra-Techy Shades
It took me one short ride to get used to glancing at my live stats through the mini display in the Recon Jet: My speed, distance, elevation, time, power, and heart rate were right there in these polarized sunglasses. After a few more hours, I'd completely stopped looking at the Garmin on my wrist. And with the integrated camera, I captured photos on the bike more easily and safely than with my iPhone. The Jet pairs with most common cycling devices, so it could conceivably replace your cycling computer. But this first-generation version has only about four hours of battery life, which limits its use. And because it blocks a significant amount of peripheral vision, save these shades for solo missions—for safety, and maybe to spare yourself the curious looks and comments.
