TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Why protect yourself from UV rays?
In small doses, sunlight is great for your mood. It promotes the manufacture of vitamin D and helps to regulate sleep; however, exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause serious damage: to your skin (premature ageing and skin cancers) and your eyes (cataracts, retinal damage).
These RC100 anti-UV tights comply with standard NF EN ISO 13758 for opacity and body coverage. It blocks over 95% of UVA and 98% of UVB rays
How to effectively protect yourself
For all outdoor activities - whether in the backyard, at an outdoor cafe, at the beach, in the mountains, exercising or walking - you must protect yourself from the sun
1. Covering your body with clothing and a helmet liner is the best way to protect yourself from UV rays. To protect your eyes, you should wear glasses
2. Avoid sun exposure in the middle of the day
3. Use highly protective sunscreen
4. See a dermatologist regularly
OUR NEW MEDIUM DENSITY PAD
To ensure greater comfort in the saddle, we created this "Medium Density" chamois pad.
The fabric is soft and breathable. The reinforced zone is soft, with a density of 100 kg/m3 and a thickness of 13mm. The perforated fabric actively wicks away perspiration. The pad keeps you comfortable on rides of up to around 2 hours
Its shape
The shape of the reinforced areas (areas with thicker foam) was defined by tests on a sheet of pressure, designed by garment designers from a dummy moulding and approved after various trials and usage tests. This test, conducted on real cyclists, involves measuring the pressure points exerted on the saddle. The reinforced area covers contact points where pressure is greater. There is a dart at the front for a better fit.
Reinforced areas
The ischiums are well-covered, and the perineum is also protected. The reinforced area is relatively narrow between the legs to prevent irritation/rubbing while pedalling. Channels have been embossed into the reinforcements to provide greater flexibility.
