Ice vest. Make or buy?


Recommended Posts

Its summer time in Texas and I know this about riding.   The faster you go the cooler you feel until the temperature hits 95 degrees and then its like riding into a blowtourch.    There are vests which circulate cool water in tubing to jeep you cool.   There are the primitive ones where to cold water must be prechilled and it seems these would be useful on short trips.   Then there are the complex ones which use a peltier chip to perform active cooling of the water.   Prices can range from under a hundred for the simple ones to 700+ for the complex Peltier chip based ones.   I found some plans online for a complex one I am going to make.     My question is how well do they work?  Anyone have one?   Would it make you comfortable enough to go riding in 100 degree F weather?
