Warmth and comfort
These cuffs are made of a layer of coated, windproof, waterproof fabric, a soft and comfortable layer to keep your hands warm, and a stiff layer between them to hold the cuffs in place as you ride.
The reflective strips on these cuffs ensure night-time visibility. Product dimensions:35 x 30 cm
One size.
COLD SENSITIVITY
Everyone responds differently to the cold, and some people are more sensitive than others.
There are several factors that help explain the differences in feeling:
> the intensity of the activity
> each individual's metabolism
> blood circulation
> etc..
The cuffs can be used with or without gloves.
WATERPROOFING IS:
- A WATER-REPELLENT TREATMENT
A fluorine-free chemical recipe placed on the fabric's surface to make water slide off it. This treatment can be reactivated by heat (10 minutes in the tumble drier on a gentle cycle).
- A WATERPROOF CONSTRUCTION
The aim is to avoid water getting in through the holes in the seams by placing a waterproof strip under the seams.
- A WATERPROOF FABRIC
A fabric's capacity to prevent water from penetrating it.
MEASURING WATERPROOFING
Waterproofing is measured in Schmerbers or mmH2O (the pressure exerted by a water column).
A material with a rating of 10,000 mmH2O can resist 10 metres of water.
The bigger the number, the more waterproof the fabric.
HOW IS THE USE TEMPERATURE MEASURED?
Our cuffs are tested using a thermal hand in a lab with temperatures from 5°C to -20°C and winds from 10 km/h to 25 km/h.
The City Bike Cuffs 940 are rated 5 out of 5 for warmth.
Recommended temperature: -10°C
Limit temperature: -20°C
ATTACHING THE CUFFS TO THE HANDLEBAR
1) Insert the cuffs with the reflective strips on top
2) Fasten the rip-tabs
3) Tighten the drawcord
The cuffs are suitable for straight and curved handlebars (city bikes).
These hand warmers are easy to put on your handlebar. Once installed on the handlebar, they are held in place by rip-tabs. These cuffs make it easy to use the brake levers and gear shifters.
