crowbar, the pointy nose pieces on the splice make you look like an alien.

The Splices fit me way better and the look has grown on me so either one would be a dope goggle. If I were to choose one right now, it would be the Splice because of the fit.

Crowbar
Splices don't get my nose well.

I had less downward vision with the splice, and they felt funny. They also make you look like a dragon, and if you fall funny the spikes might poke your eyes out. Crowbars are classic and sick.

i really like the fit of the splices.  but if your just wondering what ones to buy just go to a shop and see which ones you like.  they are both great goggles so you won't go wrong.

Splices just don't look right to me. I have crowbars, and love the fit. My vote goes to them. But I prefer not to wear goggles whenever I can.

i already own both. i bought my cbars last yr and love em and got the splice for xmas. i dont treally like the fit of the splice of much but i was wondering if it was just me or the goggles. i dont have a fat face so the cbars fit me way better. i also dont like the fat nose. i get better breathing with the c bars

I have crowbars. Love them. Both the splice and the crowbar look sick. For me the splice did not fit my nose very well. And the nosepiece looks so strange to me when being worn. Someone awhile ago said it makes it look more sagged. I disagree! I felt that it looked less sagged. And I also noticed that I couldn't see down very well. But your best bet would be to try both on and see which one you like better.

i like the look of splices, but probably just cuz theyre new and unique. i had a pair of the new dumonts w fire, but i ended up selling them. the strap was way too tight to fit around my helmet, so the goggles were mashed to my face and quite uncomfortable

the crowbars are just so versatile and comfy, i have 2 customized pairs and working to get a third. cbars get my vote

Ive worn a friends crowbars and i like them.

But I have yet to find a goggle that doesn't limit my peripheral vision. I cant see anything when i ride switch, I hate it. So I usually dont wear goggles.
