Ultra-Light Photochromic Eyewear with a Handlebar Bag Included.
The ULAC Neo Vue Visionär Photochromic Cycling Sunglasses combine an ultra-light rimless design with broad lens coverage for road, gravel and mountain biking. At approximately 18g, they sit comfortably beneath a cycling helmet without feeling heavy or enclosed.
The Köri photochromic lens changes tint as UV conditions change, while the included Neo Porter doubles as a protective eyewear case and compact 0.8L handlebar bag.
Lightweight Rimless Design
The rimless construction keeps weight down and leaves the lower edge of the lens unobstructed. This gives you a clear view when looking down the trail or checking a bike computer.
The TR90 frame material is light, flexible and resistant to fatigue. At approximately 18g, the Visionär is noticeably lighter than most full-frame cycling sunglasses.
Köri Photochromic Lens
The 1.37mm cylindrical polycarbonate lens remains lighter in dull conditions and darkens as UV exposure increases. This makes it practical for rides that move between open roads, shaded trails and changing weather.
ULAC’s Köri lens technology is designed to improve contrast while keeping colour distortion low. UV400 protection blocks UVA and UVB rays.
Photochromic performance depends on temperature and UV exposure. The lens may not darken fully behind some vehicle windscreens because the glass blocks much of the UV light needed to activate it.
Neo Porter Handlebar Bag Included
The Neo Porter protects the glasses off the bike and can also be fitted to a suitable handlebar as a compact 0.8L bag. It provides space for smaller ride essentials such as keys, a snack or basic repair items.
Check the available handlebar space before fitting it and make sure the bag cannot interfere with cables, brake hoses, lights or steering. Items that must remain dry should still be placed in a waterproof pouch.

Our Thoughts
The standout feature is the 18g weight. The Visionär feels very light on your face and the rimless shape gives you a clear view beneath the lens when checking the trail or bike computer.
The photochromic lens is useful for changing conditions, although it is not intended to provide the darkest possible tint in constant, intense sunlight. The included Neo Porter is a practical extra, provided it fits cleanly around your cables and other handlebar accessories.
