First Look: Scott Prospect Goggle 2

It's been a bit since we'd seen some new goggles from Scott, and they dropped a new model on us at Scott Week at Deer Valley resort in Park City, Utah. What's Scott Week? It's a mix of a cycling dealer event, and a chance for us to drop in to see the latest goods.

So what's new about the Prospect goggle? Well...to put it mildly, everything.

Frame

The frame is all-new, and offers a wider field of view than before. It's also an outrigger-style goggle, but the arms articulate, to work with different helmets, and to make for easy installation of their new ultra-wide 50mm film system. That's a boost from a 1-1/4 inches to two inches. There are also locking four points around the frame where the new lens lock system pushes a post through a slot in the lens. That makes it pretty much impossible for the lens to get blasted out by roost. That's big.

Lens

The lens is now thicker at 1mm. (The previous standard was .8mm.) The Prospects come with a mirrored lens, as well as a clear lens. Why are there four posts on the lens? They are mounting points for both the tear-offs, and for the tool-free film system.

Strap

The strap is silicone-backed, and at 50mm is even wider than in the past.

Foam

The foam is a thermoformed NoSweat 3.2 design.

Extras

There's a microfiber bag, as well as a removable noseguard.

Cost

$89.00

Colors

There are eight color combos available.

Availability

Production starts this week.

Oh, and they're made in the U.S.A.

Check out the videos below, and you can see how they work.

We also got a sneak peek at Scott's '17 lineup of mountain and road bikes (and a chance to ride them on the trails of Deer Valley). If you're in the market for a bike, we can say that they make some pretty sweet rides.​
