The holidays are just around the corner, and that means it’s time to find a gift for the cyclist on your list. However, if you’re not a cyclist, it can be challenging to find a gift that the cyclist in your life will like and use. The good news is that you have the team at The Break Bike Shop to help you! Whether you’re shopping for a mountain or road cyclist, have a tight budget, or the sky’s the limit, we can help you find the perfect gift this holiday season.
Shopping for a cyclist this holiday season? Here are some gift ideas from the team at The Break Bike Shop!
For Mountain Cyclists
- Cycling Gloves or Socks: Keep their hands and feet warm and blister-free! The perfect cycling gloves or socks are the key to a comfortable ride.
- Water Bottle Holder: Help the cyclist in your life stay hydrated. Not all bikes come with water bottle holders, or if they do, they don’t have a very tight fit. Give the gift of a hydration upgrade!
- Handlebar Bag: Mountain cyclists often go for long rides and need somewhere to stash their stuff. However, carrying something like a backpack isn’t always preferable. Handlebar bags are compact and convenient places to keep snacks, phones, keys, or whatever else they need.
For Road Cyclists
- Helmet or Handlebar Lamp: Safety and visibility are paramount for road cyclists. A powerful lamp attached to a cyclist’s helmet or handlebars ensures they can see and be seen at night or in poor visibility conditions.
- Secure Bike Lock: Does your cyclist commute? A secure bike lock ensures their bike is still there at the end of the day. Some bike locks even have a place to hide a Bluetooth tracker, just in case.
- Spoke Reflectors: Visibility is safety when it comes to road cycling! Attaching reflectors to the bike spokes is an easy way to increase visibility.
- Reflective Clothing: Seriously, you can’t be too visible when cycling alongside cars.
Ideas for All Cyclists
- Set of Hex Wrenches: You never know when you’ll need to adjust something on your bike. A complete set of hex wrenches is a must-have for any cyclist.
- Bike Tune-up: If your cyclist has all the accessories they need, why not pay for a tune-up? That’s a gift any cyclist can use!
