On the bike at 5 ° just okay

Had the balaclava ordered for cycling due to the many positive reviews. Seeking a long time a balaclava which also warms the nose. So far I always cycled with fleece Balaclavas. But they are soon drenched in sweat. If you try it, to cover the nose, the breath rises quickly under the glasses, so they steam up from the inside. Blind Cycling I find less inspiring.

The product photograph of Brubeck balaclava shows in the nose and mouth area a little more permeable structure, which I hoped the expected properties. On the bike quickly made himself at 4 ° C disillusionment. The comments from other customers, the hood would keep you warm and dissipate moisture well, I can not confirm. On one hand, the cold wind already pulling at a tempo from 20 und 25 km / h very strong through the front region. At the traffic lights and fast water vapor rises among the glasses, although not quite as bad as a fleece hood.

Returning would be unfair because it is already incorporated sweats. At temperatures below 5 ° C, but I will probably not be able to use as planned due to the traffic risk. My search for a balaclava for winter continues.
