H\u00f6vding is a unique airbag for cyclists designed specifically for an urban environment. Proven to be eight times safer than a traditional bike helmet, the H\u00f6vding is able to protect not only a larger part of a cyclist\u2019s head, but also the back of the neck.<\/p>\n

H\u00f6vding is worn around the neck just like a scarf or a collar and \u2013 once on the bike and ready to go – activated by the simple clip of a button.<\/p>\n

The revolutionary technology behind H\u00f6vding features hundreds of in-built sensors that enable it to read a cyclist\u2019s body movements at 200 times per second. In the event of an accident, due to a complex algorithm with 2,000 rules, it is able to recognise the changes in a cyclist\u2019s body movement patterns. Once triggered, the patented airbag technology inflates in a tenth of a second, providing full protection before impact.<\/p>\n

During a study conducted in October 2016, Stanford University looked at the effectiveness of various head protection products. In the study, H\u00f6vding was compared directly to a traditional foam helmet in a simulation of the most common cycling accident \u2013 a single fall. The results showed H\u00f6vding to provide eight times better protection against a risk of concussion, and was found to be \u2018near perfect\u2019 in terms of protecting both the head and neck in an event of an accident.<\/p>\n

To date, more than 60,000 H\u00f6vding airbags have been sold around the world. The company is aware of over 1,000 cases where the H\u00f6vding has protected a cyclist in an accident, potentially saving the cyclist\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

The H\u00f6vding is available to purchase online or through a number of retailers all around the world. Visit www.hovding.com<\/a> for further information.<\/p>\n

Ride safe. Feel free.<\/p>\n
