We Get Kids Riding on Two Wheels

We have some awesome ways to get your children to learn how to ride on two wheels. Check them out below.

Accessory Category #9: Pumps

Pumps - Everyone needs two pumps. You should have a floor pump in the garage and one to carry with you when you venture farther than you wish to walk home. Along with pumps, we have a large selection of co2 inflators and everything you need to fix a flat tire in large and portable sizes.

Accessory Category #8: Jerseys

Jerseys - Jerseys are about more than looking good. They start with a technical fabric that wicks the persperation to the outside layer. As the persperation is evaporated it cools you. In the winter, this wicking keeps you drier and reduces the chance of hypothermia. The jerseys are also cut for your riding position to be more comfortable and have a long tail to cover the gap when you are bent over. We have jerseys for road, mountian and recumbent riders.

Accessory Category #7: Computers

Computers - These are great for motivation and as training tools to improve your cycle performance. We have basic computers that give you speed and distance or advanced computers that read heartrate, elevation, cadence or anything else you can dream up. We can order what YOU want!

Accessory Category #6: Lights

Lights - We have a large selection of lights to make you visible or to light up the trail on a moonless night. Florida law requires a front light, a taillight and a rear reflector to ride on the road after sunset. We carry these, as well as reflective tape and vests. Ask about our Knog lights for simple lighting.

Accessory Category #5: Hydration

Hydration - This is important for your health as well as enjoyment while bicycling. We can help with everything from basic waterbottles and cages to backpack hydration systems. We also have Camelbacks for on the go.

Accessory Category #4: Shorts

Shorts - Safety? Well maybe not, but they protect you from discomfort. Bicycling shorts are worn as an additional layer of skin (no underwear). The idea is that they stick to you and the movement will be between the shorts and saddle and chaffing will be prevented. We also recommend a chamois lube for greater comfort.

Accessory Category #1: Helmets

Helmets - We carry helmets by Specialized. All of their helmets are independently tested by the SNELL Memorial Foundation or TNO Certification BV. They pass all of the following standards:CPSC, SNELL B-90, B-90C, B95, CE, EN1078(european),AS/NZS 2063(Australia, New zeealand). These are well tested helmets. They are also good looking, comfortable, and worn by many professional cycling teams.

Accessory Category #3: Gloves

Gloves - Yes gloves are a safety item. Anytime you think you are in danger, putting your hands out is the first line of defense. Gloves also help with any numbness you may have from riding. This is the main function of your gloves. We carry a variaty of gloves to choose from.
