If you’re a tradie who’s also a cyclist – motor or other – this fibre is ideal crash protection. Dyneema is used in everything from jeans and body armour to ropes, cables, yachting, airships, the medical industry and increasingly in ultralight backpacking equipment. Who knew you had the option to wear this kind of technology to work?
