To all Hind Compy HATERS: Maybe somebody experienced in physics or evolutionary genetics could field this question. Exactly how significantly has the goggle evolved over the last 30 years (roughly when the compy was created from primordial slime)? I mean does the plastic of today have a different drag coefficient or has it been equipped with flagella or something? I've been wearing the same two compy (one clear, one smoke--one for when I'm happy and one for when I'm sad) for the last two years. It is my humble opinion, that the foam gaskets are much more comfortable and definitely not significantly less durable than silicone. I have replaced my smoke (sad) goggle elastic once with a 1 dollar silicone strap. The antifog of today's goggles is a joke and usually lasts only a few weeks and can be remedied with a single drop of antifog. I am certainly down with paying too much for something just because it's the best (see my bike), but I'm not sure where the technology is improved for the 10-15 dollars extra. The only advance I can tell has been more affordable correction lenses...so back off haters!
What brought this on?
Mea culpa. I bashed Kurt for his endorsement of Hind Compies in the poll someone posted about "what goggles would you buy?" or whatever it is.
By the way, I'd like to add harsh penalties for drivers who insist on driving slow in the passing lane to the PAC agenda.
