It’s safe to say, no other tour operator goes the extra mile like we do.
Trek Travel offers superior helmet technology to our guests. Helmets on trip feature WaveCel, Trek’s newest in advanced helmet impact protection that disrupts 30 years of accepted safety conventions.
Created by a team of doctors, researchers, and engineers, WaveCel protects your head and can help absorb the energy created by an angled impact. WaveCel has been shown in a recent study to be up to 48x more effective than traditional foam helmets in protecting your head from injuries caused by certain cycling accidents.*
*See Evaluation of a Novel Bicycle Helmet Concept in Oblique Impact Testing, Accident Analysis and Prevention 123 (2019) 58-65. www.trekbikes.com/what-is-wavecel. Based on reduction in rotational acceleration at impact (6.2 m/s at 45°) of head + neck model wearing traditional EPS foam helmet vs. helmet modified with WaveCel insert. Probability of injury in an actual accident depends on numerous factors, including nature of impact and individual health.”
We make every ride even more safe by providing you with Bontrager Flare R lights. Flare R is ultra-lightweight, durable, and rechargeable, and it’s equipped with optics and flash patterns proven to be the most eye-catching for drivers. Most importantly, it’s the first tail light designed for daylight visibility, so you can be seen from over two kilometers day or night. Find it exclusively with Trek Travel.
