SQlab apuesta por los Supersoft TPE para lograr una óptima distribución de la presión en los pantalones de ciclismo
El sector del deporte experimenta un boom. En las calles de Alemania, por ejemplo, se ve un número de ciclistas mayor que nunca. Ya sea con asistencia electrónica o sin ella, el desplazamiento en bicicleta se ha popularizado. En el marco del "Fahrradmonitor", un estudio especializado llevado a cabo por encargo del Ministerio de Transporte de ese país, un 85% de los ciclistas encuestados en 2020 atribuyeron el fenómeno a la idea de mantenerse en buena forma, mientras que más de dos tercios mencionaron como punto esencial la protección ambiental. De manera paralela, aumenta la demanda de un equipamiento de alta calidad, que ejerza una influencia positiva en la actividad. En primera línea se sitúan los pantalones de ciclismo, una prenda que no solo debe ser elegante, sino que además debe contar con un material funcional y, sobre todo, con un acolchado inteligente. No importa si se trata de un recorrido extenso o un circuito rápido: a fin de que el trayecto ciclístico no se convierta en una experiencia torturante, la empresa SQlab apuesta desde su sede en Múnich a los Supersoft TPE para el nuevo forro interior de los pantalones. Como resultado, surge una almohadilla superblanda, ergonómica, duradera y de altísima calidad, para que siempre prevalezca el placer al andar en bicicleta.
