POC Sports has launched its newest entrant into the best cycling sunglasses space, with a model claimed to weigh just 23g. Dubbed the POC Elicit Clarity, these sunglasses have been stripped to the very minimum without losing any of the functionality needed to excel at the highest level. In fact, they were put through a thorough stress and performance test at this year's Paris-Roubaix by EF Education-Nippo rider, Mitch Docker.

When it comes to innovation, POC has been at the forefront of tech and safety over the past few years with its category-breaking POC Aspire Solar Switch sunglasses and self-powered Omne Eternal Spin helmet. The Swedish brand also recently launched the ultra-feathery 180g Ventral Lite helmet and Devour Clarity sunglasses.
