Aeroshade 2.0 Titanium Strake with Safety Edge lens, in glossy crystal black frame with category 3 blue-green mirrored lens for full sunlight.

The Safety Edge, for a clear view even in the aero position

The Strake is the evolution of the Aeroshade 2.0 Titanium, the pair that won the 2026 Tour de France according to Scicon. Its signature is the Hi-Contrast lens whose lower edge is slightly turned outwards: that is the Safety Edge. The rest keeps what made the model's reputation: medical-grade titanium arms, a vented front and a height-adjustable nose.

The translucent, gloss crystal black front gives this Strake a smarter look than the matte version. It carries the Multimirror blue-green category 3 lens (11.4% light transmitted), a bright-sun lens that protects effectively against glare on long summer rides.

Strake or Aeroshade 2.0?

On paper, the two models have the same dimensions (143 x 58 mm lens, 144 mm front) and the same weight. What changes is the lens: on the Strake, its lower edge is turned outwards. Scicon highlights three benefits: less risk of cuts in a crash, rain and sweat that run off better, and a better view downwards in the aero position, head down on the extensions or hands in the drops. For a time triallist, a triathlete or a time-trial fan, the Strake is therefore our preference; for more relaxed riding, the Aeroshade 2.0 remains a safe bet (our advice). Note that Strake spare lenses have their own references and are not interchangeable with those of the Aeroshade 2.0.

LVR workshop tip

Crystal black and blue-green make a stylish combination for those who mostly ride in fine weather. Keep the pink lens within reach for grey days.

For care, a rinse under lukewarm water then a gentle wipe with the pouch is enough. Always store the Strake in its case: the Safety Edge, like any lens, does not like being left at the bottom of a bag.
