WARMTH AND COMFORT
The sleeves feature a layer of windproof, coated waterproof fabric, a soft, comfortable layer to keep your hands warm, and a rigid layer in between to hold your sleeves in place while you ride.
Product dimensions: 35 x 30 cm
One size fits all.
Available in black with reflective stripes.
COLD SENSITIVITY
Each individual reacts differently to cold, some people being more chilled than others.
Several parameters come into play to explain differences in feeling:
> intensity of activity
> metabolism of each individual
> blood circulation
> etc.
Sleeves can be used with or without gloves.
WATERPROOFING MEANS :
- A DEPERLANT TREATMENT
A fluorine-free chemical recipe placed on the surface of the fabric, which allows water to slide off the surface of the component. This treatment can be reactivated by the action of heat (use of tumble dryer - gentle program 10').
- A WATERPROOF ASSEMBLY
The aim is to prevent water penetrating through seam holes by using sealing strips placed under the seams.
- A WATERPROOF COMPONENT
A fabric's ability to prevent water penetration.
WATERPROOFING MEASUREMENT
Impermeability is measured in Schmerber or mmH2O (pressure exerted by a column of water).
A component with a value of 10,000 mm will withstand 10 meters of water.
The higher the number, the more impermeable the fabric.
HOW IS THE OPERATING TEMPERATURE MEASURED?
Our sleeves are tested with a thermal hand in the laboratory at temperatures ranging from 5°C to -20°C and wind speeds between 10 km/h and 25 km/h.
900 city bike sleeves are rated at 5 out of 5 for heat.
Recommended temperature: -10°C
Temperature limit: -20°C
HOW TO ATTACH THE SLEEVES TO THE HANDLEBARS?
1) Insert the sleeve onto your handlebars
2) Velcro it in place
3) Tighten the cord with the tanka
The sleeves are suitable for straight and curved handlebars (city bikes).
These hand protectors against the cold are easily slipped over your handlebars. Once installed on the handlebars, the sleeves are held in place by velcro fasteners. The sleeves allow you to use the brake levers and shifter with ease.
