The Q-FOG is a new gadget that is meant to help cool down hot cyclists. It was brought to life by a design team from Israel who more likely than not like to ride their bikes in all kinds of weather. The simple device attaches to a bicycle's handlebars and emits a cooling spray (more like a mist) of water when activated.
The Q-FOG ensures that cyclists won't pour water on themselves to cool down, thus wasting the hydrating and life-giving good stuff. Just a few presses is all it takes to completely soak the torso, so a full bottle should be more than enough to last a rider a day. The Q-FOG is currently seeking $70,000 of funding on Indiegogo.
