Recommended use

The Akila suit cyclists looking for a wraparound, stable and comfortable pair for bright conditions. Their category 3 lens makes them most suitable for sunny weather, on the road and on gravel.

Our take

Tested for several months by GravelPassion, the Mundaka Optic Akila stand out for their very good stability, comfort on smaller faces and solid finish for the price. They remain less capable than premium eyewear during rapid transitions between sun and shade, but the overall compromise is very convincing at under €80.
