Whether you're a city riding regular, or have only just decided to leave the car at home and start to cycle to work, then this is the place for you. We've chosen and collected here some products from our range that to us, really stand out as great pieces of apparel to wear on your ride in the city.

More >>



Reflectivity

Let's get serious - At some time on your ride, the difference between being seen and being overlooked is going to stop you having an accident. The best way to be seen is by wearing apparel or accessories that include elements of reflectivity.

Ride rain or shine

It might rain a lot these days, but that's no reason not to miss out on bike time. For most commutes, a weather resistant jacket is all you'll need, offering more breathability than a full water proof. However, when the rain really starts, full rain protection is a must, so be sure to check the product page details to see what attributes each item has.

Comfort, fit and function

City riding is all about blending into your surroundings, and great city apparel will allow you to move from the bike to the office in style. We've included some of our favourite pieces, including cycling jeans and shorts from only the very best city cycle clothing brands.
