Good news for those who like to ride a bike. This is a useful and inspiring task. Although the level of satisfaction depends on the vagaries of the weather. Few people like to travel under the shower.

The invention called LeafxPro make things better. This is a special umbrella for fans of “bikes”. Salvation from any rain. You can reach your destination relatively dry.

The device weighs in the range of 1 to 1.3 kg (depending on configuration).

There are several models with different levels of protection: basic, advanced, family and professional. Plus a special option for trips to the storm. Users are offered a wide range of colors.

LeafxPro – according to the authors of the project – easy to “stick” to any type of bike. If we talk about aerodynamics, the design “not afraid” of a wind speed of 80 km / h.

In the open market the novelty will appear in September this year. Now the creators of the collected funds on Kickstarter at the start of serial production.

Someone has umbrellas, someone manages hood or even likes to walk in the rain at any time of year, but this accessory remains popular, anyway. In addition, in certain circles this item “equipment” can say something about the status of the person who was in front of you. Often you can see how they are used with large purses uncle (now, however, correct to say – with big bank accounts) as a cane. However, in its long history umbrella did not undergo significant changes until recently. Came the 21st century and away we go …

There have been several attempts to improve the umbrella just in the last couple of years. Immediately come to mind Rain Shield, which provides both shelter from the wind; umbrella Air, which uses a fan to stop the rain (yes, DMX, you now not only is the strength); and, of course, Nubrella, which are like a space helmet – right on the head. Now we had used in conjunction with a new smartphone with a pretty umbrella called Kisha.

Kisha connects to your mobile phone via Bluetooth, giving him some “smart” features. First of all, it should be noted that the application Kisha says his master forecast, which is expected during the day in the current location. This awareness is to talk with the board as to whether you should take Kisha with you or leave it at home, not in vain to hang with are not always the most convenient-protective accessory.

As Blunt + Tile, Kisha also “knows” about its location, notifying you when your phone (and thus you) have moved too far away from home. The idea is to prevent you left your umbrella on the bus or anywhere else, so places such as your car, home or office can be considered safe, preventing you to receive unwanted false notice.

It would be great if when walking the walk in the rain would not have to hold hands umbrella, but not wet. So thought American Alan Kaufman and began developing Hands free umbrella.

Device project he presented at the Kick and got the necessary financial support for the realization of his ideas. Nubrella is a hard folding frame, covered with a transparent waterproof material, which is attached to the shoulders straps.

Looks like a pretty extravagant accessory and looks like a big hood, but with it hands free and you can answer the call number or ride a bike without fear of the raging elements. Designers have thought a few models Nubrella and simplest would cost between $ 50.
