More and more cyclists are wearing cycling arm sleeves. You see cyclists wearing arm sleeves at races, at club outings, and in their daily cycles. Naturally, no two cyclists wear cycling arm sleeves for the exact same reasons as some cycling arm sleeves features are more important than others. What we found out might surprise you. Based upon reviews and ratings, here are the 10 best cycling arm sleeves features.
The top ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists was fit. For fit, is important to look for cycling arm sleeves that come in a wide range of sizes. For example, Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves come in 12 different sizes from Youth Small to Adult 4XL. This granular sizing ensures that you can get the exact fit that you want. Arm sleeves that only come in a limited number of sizes or that combine sizes such as S/M and L/XL have too wide of a gap from one size to the next resulting in a poor fit that is too tight or too loose.
The second ranked top cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists was cooling. The moisture wicking properties of Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves keeps the arms cool and dry. When cycling on a hot and humid day, cycling arm sleeves keeps your arms dry and makes your arms feel as if they are in air condition. The air flow that passes over your arms as you cycle actually cools your arms down. Hot weather cyclists enjoy and ranked this feature highly.
The third ranked cycling arm sleeve feature cited by cyclists was compression. Cycling puts your body in an unnatural posture. Even when riding a perfectly fitted bike, your arms can become fatigued. The compression in Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves supports the muscles in your arms and improves blood circulation. This helps to keep you arms from tiring out. And when you do tire your arms on account of exerting pressure on your handle bars, cycling arm sleeves helps to restore your arm muscles.
The fourth ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists was the elastic gripper. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves have an elastic gripper made of silicon at the top of the arm sleeves which ensures that the sleeves will stay up on your arms. Arm arm sleeves that do not have a quality elastic gripper rely upon a tight fit in order to stay in place and after a few wears the fit at the top of the sleeve loosens and these sleeves fall down your arm. Cyclists don’t want to be bothered by poorly constructed arm sleeves that won’t stay up. And arm sleeves that fall down are unsightly. A good, high quality elastic gripper is essential to long-lasting cycling arm sleeves.
The fifth ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists was Extreme UPF 50+ protection against the harmful UV rays of the sun. All cyclists need to combat over exposure to the harmful UV rays of the sun. Cycling unprotected can result in precancerous skin damage which can lead to skin cancer. Uvoider Arm UV Sleeves have extreme UPF 50+ protection and are far more effective than sunblock in protecting your skin. And unlike sunblock which only lasts two hours and is messy, cycling arm sleeves with extreme UPF 50+ protection will keep your arms safe as long as you are wearing them. And there is no mess.
The sixth ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists was colors and styles. If there is one thing that cyclists are not short of, it is style. Cyclists are keen to wear beautiful, eye-catching colors and for a number of reasons. Some cyclists like arm sleeves that match their jerseys and team colors. Other cyclists like to wear arm sleeves that stand out so that team members and friends can spot them in a crowd. And then there are many cyclists that like to wear cycling arm sleeves in safety colors such as bright yellow so that others they share the road with such as cars, SUVs, trucks, and buses will notice them. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves come in 40 different colors and styles.
The seventh ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists was stitching. This is because quality stitching is needed for comfort, fit and durability. Poorly stitched arm sleeves feel scratchy on the first wear and fall apart after just a few more wears. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves have quality flat lock stitching which makes the sleeves comfortable to wear, ensures a good fit throughout the entire arm sleeve, and makes the sleeves very durable and long lasting.
The eighth ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists was durability. Cyclists cycle, a lot. They want their cycling arm sleeves to have lasting durability. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves are durable and can be machine washed making them a long lasting addition to your cycling kit.
Sweat prevention was the ninth ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists. Cyclists are all too aware of how much their arms can sweat when cycling with bare arms exposed to the sun. On hot weather days, sweat can run down your arms making your gloves and hands wet. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves keeps your arms dry and prevents them from sweating. Your hands and gloves will stay dry making it easier to cycle well in hot, humid weather.
Being anti-bacterial and odor resistant was the tenth ranked cycling arm sleeves feature cited by cyclists. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves are made of anti-bacterial and odor resistant fabric. This keeps bacteria from forming and growing on your arm sleeves keeping them cleaner, fresher to wear, and odor free.
