AirPop Active+ Halo Smart Sports Mask

More than your average face mask, this product filters the air to reduce bacteria and particle inhalation, while also measuring breath rate. Filters last for 40 hours of exercise, offering up to 99.3% particle filtration (PFE) and 99.9% bacterial filtration (BFE) — good statistics to have as we all try to work safely during the pandemic. The smart mask is available in one size, but comes with adjustable ear loops so you can ensure the perfect fit.

RRP £149.99. Replacement filters cost £29.99

AeroLab Universal Angled Armrest Wedges

With many recent TT bikes with integrated front ends it has become difficult to get the riders arms into a decent angle, which has lead to the proliferation of aftermarket wedges and adapters for various bikes.

This set of wedges are available in UCI legal 15 degree and 20 degree inclinations. The real benefit is they will fit the majority of arm rest fixtures, as they can mount to any bar and arm rest that uses M5 screws spaced between 15mm and 35mm. This makes it really easy to stock them in a fit studio with limited stock requirements.

The wedges are made using a deposition form of 3D printing and then reinforced using stainless steel. This keeps the manufacturing costs low as well as the weight, although they should only be used under the arm rest and not within a bar stack as they are not designed to cope with those sorts of forces.

Note: These are not to be used such that they are incorporated into your stack. They are for use directly under your arm rests only.

RRP £35 www.aerolabuk.com
