Hey ST,

Quick question for you folks: anybody sporting a standard Radarlock lens on a Radarlock XL frame? Does it fit?

Thanks

No. Nose piece is different eg. XL piece will be slightly taller/longer to accommodate the larger XL lens.


Youtube shows an unofficial user conversion video which "converts" them by using a XL nose piece/vice versa for reverse.

YMMV. Let us know how it goes if you decide to do so.

I researched this a bit last year, and the difference of the XL is a longer nose bridge piece (it twists off the frame) along with the taller lens.

If you could find the nose piece available for separate purchase (I couldn't) then you could swap the standard Radarlock with the XL. In my case, now having both lenses and nose bridge pieces, I can swap from one pair to another. My understanding is that Oakley doesn't offer consumers a SKU for the nose piece alone, but you may be able to find it somewhere.

Ok! Thanks for the confirmation. I'll try to figure out something and will give you updates if I go that route.

Thanks

If I understood you correct...
I could trade my Radarlock Pitch/Path/Range nose bridge with your Radarlock XL nose bridge.
Thanks

Yep technically. But I ended up buying a Path/pitch frame model.

Currently deciding if I'll keep the XL or not...

I see.
I just need the XL nose bridge, but would consider a purchase of complete shade if price is good. Let me know.
