CHPO Henrik - Photochromic

CHPO Henrik Photochromic are photochromic cycling glasses for days when the light changes and you do not want to deal with different lenses. The photochromic lenses automatically adapt to the light conditions, from relatively bright to significantly darker, making Henrik particularly useful on longer rides where you may encounter clouds, forest and stronger sunlight all on the same day.

The lens has a light transmission of 78–14 percent and operates within categories 1–3. In practice, this means the glasses work from overcast and weaker daylight to sunnier conditions. However, they are not intended as completely clear night glasses. The UV400 protection provides full protection against UV radiation regardless of how dark the lens is.

Henrik has CHPO’s larger fit and a substantial lens area that provides good coverage around the eyes. This is the model for you if you would like a little more protection from the wind – or, as we usually put it, if your eyes water easily when things start moving fast. The shape works just as naturally on a gravel or road bike as it does on a commuter bike, providing significantly more coverage than a pair of regular sunglasses.

The matte black frame is made from 100 percent recycled plastic. The look is sporty without becoming overly technical, making Henrik a pair of cycling glasses that are easy to wear even off the bike.

The great thing about Henrik Photochromic is really its simplicity. You get a pair of glasses that covers a large part of the light conditions you normally encounter while cycling, instead of having to choose between a clear and dark lens before setting off. If you often cycle in changing daylight, this is probably the only pair you need.
