Element Comments / Notes

  • Rail XC = best for smaller faces
  • Rail Race = vents for heat dissipation; best for high-intensity efforts like racing
  • Stash = stronger frame bar, built for MTB/fat biking, extra durable
  • Moab = full-frame shield, trending for gravel riders, warm/earthy colourways
  • All Tifosi models include UV protection and shatterproof lenses
  • Lens interchangeability varies: Rail & Rail XC have 3-lens options (or Fototec), Rail Race has 2, Stash & Moab have 3-lens kits
