Eye protection is as essential to motorcycle gear as a helmet and gloves, yet it is often considered last when shopping. The brand Helly Bikereyes has specialized in this field for decades and is regarded as a pioneer of biker glasses designed for the demands of riding. Through the partnership with Motorcycles.News, the discount rises to 20 percent during the FIFA World Cup.
Who Is Behind Helly Bikereyes?
Behind the brand Helly – No.1 Bikereyes stands the manufacturer HELBRECHT optics from the Rhineland, a family business with an optical tradition dating back to 1966. Founder Helly Helbrecht has been equipping motorcyclists with specialized eyewear since 1992 and is considered the inventor of the biker glasses in the industry. The trade magazine MOTORRAD described him as “probably the inventor of the biker glasses,” whose models claimed four of the top five places in a product test (MOTORRAD, issue 9/2022). Production takes place in Germany, including an in-house lens grinding workshop.
What Glasses Does Helly Bikereyes Offer?
The range includes biker glasses such as motorcycle sunglasses and jet helmet glasses, classic enclosed motorcycle goggles, and multifunctional glasses with interchangeable temples, straps, or swappable day and night lenses. The brand section alone lists around 132 items, plus tribal-style models and spare parts and accessories such as replacement lenses, temples, or padding. Well-known model names include moab 4, i-stealth, eagle, bandit 2, fender 2.0, black angel, vision 3, and hurricane 3. In addition to the regular range, there is a B-stock section with technically flawless glasses at reduced prices.
How Do the Lenses Protect the Eyes?
At the core are polycarbonate lenses that wrap around both eyes like a shield and withstand ballistic and stone impact tests. The lenses feature a UV400 filter covering ultraviolet light up to a wavelength of 400 nanometers, as well as a double-sided anti-fog coating to prevent fogging from both inside and outside. For varying light conditions, there are polarized lenses that reduce glare on wet road surfaces, and photochromic, or self-tinting, variants that automatically adjust to brightness. Additionally, there are particularly flexible frames marketed under the designation H-Flex.
Are the Glasses Available in Prescription?
Yes, many models are available as RX variants in individual prescription strengths. For this, the manufacturer HELBRECHT optics operates its own lens grinding workshop, where even highly curved and rimless lenses can be produced in prescription, a capability summarized under the term H-RX. For prescription orders, there is also the so-called Fair Deal: if the optical result is not satisfactory despite reworking, the purchase price is refunded. The surcharge for prescription lenses starts at around 69 euros (approximately 80 US dollars) depending on the model and goes up to around 349 euros (approximately 404 US dollars) for more complex lenses.
How Much Does a Pair of Helly Bikereyes Glasses Cost?
Entry-level prices start at around 39.95 euros (approximately 46 US dollars), for example for models such as moab 4 or airshade. Glasses like i-stealth or fender 2.0 start at around 69.95 euros (approximately 81 US dollars), while models like eagle or bandit 2 begin at around 79.95 euros (approximately 93 US dollars). Within Germany, shipping is free on orders over 49 euros (around 57 US dollars) and dispatched within 24 hours. Payment options include invoice, installment purchase, PayPal, or credit card.
