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. 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
These cuffs are waterproof thanks to the component's rated coating as well as the watertight strips. The fabric withstands a water column of 2,000 mm after 5 washes (= 2,000 Schmerber, the average water pressure exerted by water during a rain shower - test based on the ISO 811 standard).The main seams are fully taped.
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.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Fabric dyeing requires lots of water, with large amounts of waste water also released from the dye vats. To reduce the impact of water consumption and waste water, we use only one mass dyed yarn out of two.

MaterialRecycled polyamide
Textile part made of 31% recycled polyamide
This product is made with recycled polyamide (instead of conventional polyamide). Objective: to use a recovered material, transformed from production scraps or products destined to be thrown away, rather than using new oil resources to reduce the environmental impact of this product. And this, without compromising the technical qualities!

Material
Recycled polyester
Textile part made of 61% recycled polyester
We have incorporated recycled polyester into this product (instead of conventional polyester, which is itself derived from petrochemical plastic). What does this mean? In addition to being technical, this product has been designed taking into account its environmental impact: using recycled polyester means recovering and transforming products destined to be thrown away, such as production offcuts or plastic bottles, instead of using new oil resources.
