Sometimes when you get on the bike you’re not in spandex. Sometimes you’re even in pants. But that presents a problem as the cuff can get caught up in the chain and not only ruin your commute, but also your pants. For years there’s been a few solutions, generally in the form of a bright, reflective yellow strap. New technology and design innovation is making its way down to ankle straps.
One company, 90 Degrees, has come up with the Cinch Ankle Band. This is a wide, reflective strap with style. The Cinch Ankle Band is one of those rigid straps that lays flat, but when it’s tapped against a surface or worked against a leg it circles into a cylinder. The strap is made from 75 percent post-consumer recycled plastic. A bit wider than its predecessors, the Cinch is 16.25 by 3-inches. It comes in five designs that will match a number of bikes and personal styles.
