Air-filled cycling backpack likely to hit funding goal
Air-filled cycling backpack to "reduce drag" and "enhance safety" looks certain to hit Kickstarter funding goal
The project's enthusiastic founders reckon their"one-of-a-kind accessory that sets you apart on the road" represents the"next level of cycling safety and performance". On said performance front, RAF says the 300g air-filled backpack boasts"unparalleled" efficiency and has been"meticulously engineered to elevate your speed on the road".
The dimensions of the backpack are 95 x 35 x 65cm, and it comes in black, white or blue colourways. It's safe to say you won't be seeing these in the pro peloton any time soon. Can you imagine the UCI's reaction? If it does meet its target, RAF says it will enter mass production and backers will receive the product in December.
