Mountain Bike
Our interchangeable lens system allows you to easily switch from clear to mirror and to yellow in a few simple steps. PC lenses are 100% UV400.
Manis Tokul Mountain Bike Sunglasses deliver trail-first clarity with multiple lens tints for changing light, 100% UV400 protection across all lenses (including the clear lens), ANSI-rated impact resistance, a secure wrap design, and fog-resistant performance. Each Tokul ships with a prescription insert plus an EVA case, cleaning cloth, and two microfiber pouches.



Best Eyewear for Mountain Biking: Why Tokul Belongs on Your Bars
Singletrack throws everything at your eyes — bright sun, deep shade, dust, grit, and stray branches. The Manis Tokul is built for that reality: a wide, wraparound shield with ANSI-rated impact resistance, 100% UV400 protection on every lens (yes, even the clear lens), multiple lens tints to match changing light, and fog-resistant airflow that keeps the view calm when climbs get steamy.
Lens Options: Current & Upcoming Kits
Current Tokul kit: includes a polarized lens option for glare-heavy days (post-rain rock slabs, puddles, open alpine).
Upcoming Tokul kit: swaps polarization for a versatile 5-lens set: FULL REVO mirrored, clear, transparent blue, transparent orange, and transparent rose — all UV400 and ANSI-rated.
1) UV Protection Without Killing Contrast
All Tokul lenses block 100% UVA/UVB (UV400), including the clear lens. Contrast-forward tints (transparent orange/rose) help roots and ruts stand out in dark timber, while FULL REVO mirrored and blue excel when the sky opens and brightness spikes.
2) Real Debris & Branch Protection (ANSI-Rated)
Trail corridors can be tight. An ANSI-rated shield helps guard against grit, pebbles, and trail brush, while the wrap shape adds side coverage to reduce “sneak” hits from branches.
3) Choose the Right Tint for the Day
- FULL REVO mirrored: bright, exposed rides and high alpine.
- Transparent blue: mixed light; keeps detail in and out of shade.
- Transparent orange: boosts definition in forest and overcast.
- Transparent rose: all-rounder for rolling conditions; great contrast.
- Clear: dawn, dusk, tunnels, deep canopy; full protection, max brightness.
- Current kit only: Polarized lens tames glare on wet rock and puddles.
4) Fog-Resistant by Design
Tokul balances airflow and coverage so humidity has a way out without blasting your eyes with dust. Pair with a ventilated helmet for fewer mid-climb wipe-downs.
5) Lightweight, Stable Fit & Wide Field of View
The shield silhouette keeps frame intrusion minimal for peripheral awareness, while the lightweight build and wrap geometry stay put through chatter and braking bumps.
Which Lens Should I Run?
PNW trees and overcast? Transparent orange or rose. Blue-bird summer? FULL REVO mirrored (or polarized, if you’re on the current kit). Wet glare after rain? Polarized (current kit). Night laps or heavy canopy? Clear.
Tokul vs. Goggles
Goggles rule bike-park dust trains; sunglasses breathe better on pedals. Tokul lands in the sweet spot: near-goggle coverage with sunglasses-level ventilation and fast lens swaps.
Care & Setup Tips
- Helmet interface: set helmet position first, then fine-tune lens brow to sit just outside the rim.
- Anti-fog habits: start climbs with clean, dry lenses; keep a microfiber cloth handy.
- Swap strategy: keep a spare lens in the extra microfiber pouch; swap at the tailgate between laps.
- Cleaning: rinse grit with cool water before wiping; use the included cleaning cloth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers built around common rider questions and Google’s “People also ask.”
What makes sunglasses the “best” for mountain biking?
Look for 100% UV protection, ANSI-rated impact resistance, a wrap shield for side coverage, lens tints for your local light, fog-resistant airflow, and a lightweight, stable fit. Tokul checks those boxes and includes a prescription insert in the box.
Do Tokul lenses protect at night if they’re clear?
Yes. The clear lens offers full UV400 protection (like all Tokul lenses) and ANSI-rated impact resistance, so you get protection without dimming for dawn, dusk, or deep canopy.
Is polarization necessary for MTB?
Helpful, not mandatory. Polarized lenses reduce glare on wet rock and puddles but can slightly mute micro-contrast in dark woods. The current Tokul kit includes a polarized lens. The upcoming kit focuses on contrast-forward tints (FULL REVO, blue, orange, rose) to cover more trail scenarios.
What’s included with Tokul?
Tokul frame (with FULL REVO mirrored lens installed), prescription insert, EVA case, cleaning cloth, one microfiber pouch for the frame/lens, and an additional microfiber pouch for the other four lenses.
How do I swap Tokul lenses?
It’s quick. Watch the lens-swap video here: Lens Swap (YouTube Short). Steps are also detailed below in the Lens-Swap How-To.
Will Tokul work with prescription lenses?
Yes. A prescription insert is included. Your optometrist can fit lenses into the insert so you keep the wrap shield and the full lens kit.
