<b>Cat-Ears are proven to be the most effective Wind Noise* reduction products of their kind (see chart).<br> They have been independently tested, reviewed, and recommended by Bicycling and Outside Magazines.<br><br>The mid-sized AirStreamz, based on PileTech materials engineering, are recommended for Casual to Club Club Cyclists.<br><br>Aero-acoustically developed, AirStreamz are made from soft pile materials that interact with oncoming wind (dampen / dissipate / deflect) - reducing the intensity of noise producing wind turbulence.<br><br>Cat-Ears products are sound permeable for safe road cycling. "Wind Noise can inhibit one's ability to distinguish traffic noise. Cat-Ears don't restrict hearing while others I've tried do." - P. Finley, Adventure Cycling<br><br> *Wind Noise is a complex phenomenon spanning aerodynamics, acoustics, and the physiology of human hearing. The amount experienced depends on factors like: 1) speed, 2) riding position, 3) head shape, 4) turbulence, and so on. With Cat-Ears, wind noise levels are reduced by 14-16 dBA between 20 and 20k Hz. This is a reduction in sound pressure level of ~75%. But microphones and ears behave differently. And while the amount of perceived wind noise reduction averages ~60%, we stand behind our products as the most effective devices of their kind on the market. Material effectiveness has also been tested at Antioch University.<br><br><i>"Cat-Ears work dramatically well. I found I was enjoying rides more, simply because I could hear more of what I wanted to, and less of what I didn't."</i> - Bicycling<br><br>Designed with air 'flow through' porosity, Airstreamz wick away perspiration.<br><br>NOTES: Please follow all the attachment instructions.<br>Not recommended for Specialized, Nutcase, Bern helmets.<br>Our high-tech acoustic material reduces the most wind noise.<br>Cat-Ears need to rest against the face for optimal performance.<br>Made in USA | Satisfaction Guaranteed | Contact us for assistance.
