1. X-Bionic Performance Under All Conditions

    Posted By eComm November 11th 2011

    X-Bionic Arm & Leg Energy Accumulators

    X-Bionic XQ-1 & PK-1

    The XQ-1 Arm Sleeve and PK-1 Leg Sleeve offered up by X-Bionic are Truly Revolutionary. These arm and leg warms are ‘Body Thermal Scans of Cycling performance with KompressionMapped’, featuring technology that is off the chart.

    To tell a long story cut short…  these products are one garment that:

    • Warms when your cold
    • Cools when your hot

    What really makes these sleeves special

    X-Bionics’ mantra is ‘Turn Sweat into Energy’, and this is exactly what these products do. By regulating the bodies temperature these products allow your muscles to concentrate solely of performing at a peak level.

    The unique construction of the weaves used within these garments cool area’s that often over heat. The diagram to the right shows how the air-conditioning system channels excess heat away from your major muscles. The cool blue areas in the image are the products ‘exhaust’.

    On top of this heating regulation technology, the arm and leg sleeves offer graduated compression – a highly targeted system X-Bionic themselves have developed entitled ‘Partial Kompression’, delivers pressure where  it is needed.

    Features shared by both products

    Expansion Ribs

    The accordion principle behind the ExpansionRibs improves its insulating properties rather than losing them when the elbow is bent. A system of chambers and channels provide insulation by storing warm air inside; they are highly flexible in unfolding themselves during movement.

    Self-adjusting Cuff

    Fits any size of wrist without slipping or constricting.

    AirConditioning Channel

    is a ventilation system of channels that flow around the body, continually carrying away moisture and warmth. It allows air to pass to body regions not normally accessible through fresh air circulation.

    AirConditioning Spot

    The hollows of the elbow sweat quickly and heavily. To process this sweat, a fine knitted structure allows moisture to pass through but does not hinder elbow movements. Sweat evaporates and is pushed outward through the body warmth. The risk of cooling down does not exist in this small area.
