Mask replacement
It is recommended to use Iwind instead of mask. The gadget is designed to blow filtered heated air into the face of electric bicycles and bicycles. An advantage compared to face masks is that the glasses do not fog up.
Anyone who rides an electric bike or bicycle during peak hours will quickly want to go elsewhere. In addition to the common dangers lurking in road traffic, the most important thing is that exhaust gas can quickly destroy the demand for environmentally friendly transportation. The Iwind project has at least begun to improve cyclists' breathing. Joggers should also benefit from it.

The air cleaned in this way is transmitted through a gooseneck to the mouthpiece, which delivers the air flow to the driver. If necessary, ceramic components can even warm the air on cold days. Then, the battery life was reduced from nine hours to about six and a half hours. Practical: Another function of the system is to provide built-in LED tail lights.
Optional mask provides better protection
Of course, the outgoing air may mix with ambient air. Therefore, the manufacturer provides a tight-fitting face mask for cyclists traveling in particularly busy places, compatible with the system. Joggers should also be able to wear it.
Price and availability
Iwind is a Kickstarter project that will last until mid-June. This is the provider's first project. Currently, masks start at US $ 64. Later, prices are expected to rise by 32%.
