WARMTH AND COMFORT
The sleeves are made up of a layer of coated, windproof waterproof fabric, a soft, comfortable layer to keep your hands warm, and a rigid layer in between to hold your sleeves in place and make sure they stay in place when you're cycling.
These sleeves guarantee night-time visibility thanks to the reflective strips.
Product dimensions: 35 x 30 cm
One size fits all.
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, with temperatures ranging from 5°C to -20°C and wind speeds between 10 km/h and 25 km/h.
940 city bike sleeves are rated 5 out of 5 for heat.
Recommended temperature: -10°C
Temperature limit: -20°C
HOW TO ATTACH THE SLEEVES TO THE HANDLEBARS?
1) Insert sleeve with reflective stripes at top
2) Velcro to
3) Tighten cord with tanka
Sleeves fit both 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.
