Buying an anti-pollution mask online is a quick and convenient way to protect your health from pollution particles or of pollen when riding a bike or motorcycle. Most bike shops do not sell masks. They are not comfortable with these health-related devices, about which cyclists generally have many questions and few answers. To find the model that suits you best, it is important to take into account several criteria such as: the level of filtration, comfort, breathability and size.
To facilitate your search, my Eshop sells Frogmask brand anti-pollution bike masks. Frogmasks are for adults only, suitable for all needs. Thanks to our advanced search tool, you will easily find the mask that meets your requirements in terms of filtration, comfort and size.
Choosing the right filtration level
Choosing the filtration level of a cycling mask is crucial to ensure optimal protection against fine particles and other airborne pollutants. There are three filtration standards for cycling masks:
- FFP1 masks: filter at least 80% of particles down to 0.4 microns
- FFP2/N95 masks: filter at least 94% of particles down to 0.4 microns
- FFP3/N99 masks: filter at least 99% of particles down to 0.4 microns
Frogmask masks are made off 5-layer FFP2 filters only, as breathing is more difficult with FFP3 filters.
All cycling masks available on the market should indicate the filtration level, but this is not always the case. The same goes for the CE stamp.
It is important to keep in mind that even FFP3 filtration does not guarantee 100% protection against all fine particles. Anti-pollution masks for cyclists should not be considered as a miracle solution , but as an additional measure to reduce exposure to air pollution when cycling.
The filtration level should not be the only criterion when choosing a cycling mask. Other factors such as comfort, breathability and fit should also be taken into account. It is therefore recommended to choose a mask that offers a good balance between protection and comfort.
Consider the comfort of the mask
If you're going to be wearing your mask on a bike for long periods of time, you really need to think about comfort, otherwise eventually you won't want to wear it anymore.
Weighing 28 to 32g depending on the size, Frogmasks are ultra light. A FFP2 filter weighs 4g. The material used for the mask is 3D Mesh, which is ultra-breathable and water reppellent. Your skin will not get wet in case of rain. Note that the mask is hand or machine washable up to 60°. The filters are not washable and must be replaced every 2 to 3 weeks depending on the frequency of use and the level of air pollution. Very often, the filter becomes clogged faster (by contact with the skin) than it fills up.
The fastening system must not interfere with wearing your helmet, which is why Frogmask masks are adjusted by a repositionable velcro band at the neck. Two elastic fabric straps pass around the ears to prevent the mask from falling. They do not exert any pressure on the ears.
It is best to avoid masks with a repositionable strap that is angled over the top of the head, as it interferes with wearing a helmet by putting pressure on the top of the head.
Consider breathability
Be careful of shortness of breath, especially when cycling. Your mask should be breathable enough not to interfere with your breathing.
A feeling of shortness of breath or suffocation when wearing a cycling mask can lead to fears of a lack of oxygenation. Experts want to reassure you: this danger is very limited and easy to prevent. However, it is best to choose a mask in which breathing is easy.
Eyeglass wearers will be susceptible to the formation of fogging. The Frogmask is designed with two flexible aluminum nosebands, one on the mask and the other on the filter. This double barrier prevents hot exhaled air from rising up the nose and fogging up glasses.
Finally, the shape of the mask is specially designed to leave enough space between the filter and the mouth.
Wearing a mask can also protect you from the cold in winter. On the other hand, many brands are unpleasant in summer because of the condensation that forms inside. This is not the case with ours.
Choosing the right size for your face is essential
The Frogmask itself does not filter anything, it is a support for the FFP2/N95 filter. It holds the filter against the face and ensures a perfect seal with the skin. It is important to prevent the inhaled air from passing through the sides without being filtered, otherwise the device is ineffective. Therefore, bearded men with a full beard will not benefit from the best filtration. Sorry guys!
That's why Frogmask exists in 3 different sizes (M, L and XL) so that everyone can find the right size for their face shape.
- Size M for women only. The neckband will be too small even for small men.
- Size L for women and men < 1m80 and 80Kg
- Size XL for women and men > 1m80 and 80Kg
It is best to avoid one-size-fits-all masks. Small faces will have to tighten them too tightly, which can be uncomfortable.
Different colors to suit your style
We all agree that a mask is not the sexiest thing in the world. So I tried to make it as good looking as possible.
With 5 colors: navy, black, orange, black and white, and burgundy, you can match your mask to the color of your clothes. You can protect your airways from air pollution while staying stylish, right?
