Hövding boasts vibrant colours of the natural world, ready for those spring cycling trips

Spring is approaching, with longer and sunnier days. The perfect time to bring out Swedish innovation Hövding’s colourful cover, with its tropical influences from the plant kingdom. The Brazil cover adds a splash of personal style to your cycling and colours to match the brighter days ahead.

The colourful Brazil cover draws on the influences of tropical flowers and plants –

embracing the trend for the more exotic members of the animal and plant kingdom. The Brazil cover is woven in jacquard fabric for a glossy, luxury feel, with a varied structure bringing the bold colours and pattern to life. The pattern is individually applied to each cover, giving every cyclist a unique look with the Brazil around their neck.

Hövding’s airbag for cyclists is proven to offer more protection than any cycle helmet on the market, and according to several independent testing institutes, it performs particularly well in protecting against head injuries due to the airbag’s unparalleled capacity to absorb impacts.

The recommended retail price for the Brazil is 40 EUR.
