Ok heres the deal I have a pair of A-frames that I had for a couple seasons now and its time to get new googles. I am looking at the crowbars everyone says they are sick, my questions is how much bigger are they then the A frame and how much bigger do they fit.

Thanks
 
umm they fit bigger to your face in my opinion, and i think they may change in comfort on how long your face is
 
Cool and thanks for the help guys, I pro will go try before I buy it's just I don't have any shops really close to me so I wanted a little info first.
 
I made the move from A-Frames to Crowbars this past spring. Found the crowbars to put more pressure on my nose, however that did fade away after a bit of usage as the foam got adjusted and broken into my face.

Otherwise, I did not find much of a difference in the fit. They definitely work better with helmets than my A-Frames, so I will give credit there.

If helmet fitment is important, go with the Crowbars, but if you don't care as much about that, just stick with A-Frames because performance-wise, I noticed no change from the A-Frame to the Crowbar.
 
If your A-Frames are still good, I certainly wouldn't bother changing up. I only went with crows because my 5 year old a-frames were shot. The lenses were fucked and the foam was destroyed.

If your current a-frames are in good shape, it would be to no benefit to get Crowbars. They are no different optic-wise I found.
 
yeah aframes are great, but i wear a helmet alot, so i switched, but i also like that crowbars are extremely customizable
