Whether touring in hot climates, commuting into work in the heat of summer or simply riding for pleasure on a sunny day, heat can quickly build up to very uncomfortable levels under riding gear, with the potential for dehydration. Even mild dehydration causes symptoms of dizziness or light-headedness, headache and tiredness, any of which could have serious consequences for the rider trying to control a bike.
Ventz is a self-contained air intake module that is inserted into the cuff of a rider's jacket. It has a flexible clip to secure the device in position and is designed to work with both leather and textiles of various thickness. The inner profile is designed to accelerate the airflow and the rear section is made of an elastomer material to be comfortable against the skin. At 30mph the Ventz delivers 75.5 litres of air into the jacket every minute, increasing proportionately to 151 litres per minute at 60mph.
Testing reveals that the average internal temperature inside a rider's clothing rose by 5° C to 29° C during a ride of just 14 minutes. Following the insertion of Ventz, after 10 minutes the internal clothing temperature dropped by over 25% to 22° C. Patented and European design protected, Ventz was scientifically developed to greatly reduce the uncomfortable side effects of riding in warm weather.
Available in red, yellow, blue, white or black, a pair of Ventz retails for £14.99 including VAT. For more information contact 0117 971 9200 or visit www.thekeycollection.co.uk.
