Bike Auckland’s roundup of beautiful, shiny, and smart things for the bike-lovers in your life.
Stuck on gifting ideas? We’ve found 25 gorgeous gifts for bike-lovers and put them all in this handy guide to make holiday shopping easy this year. And what’s more – many of these support awesome local businesses. How cool is that?
Safety and Visibility
Beautiful bike bell: Retro or hi-tech, bells like these will make their ears light up in joy.
Bike lights that keep them safe: A tail light with rearview radar alerts them of vehicles approaching from behind. Or get one with a camera.
Smart helmet: With built-in front and rear lights and handlebar-activated turn signals, it’s the perfect accessory for the urban jungle.
Rain poncho: The secret weapon of rainy weather riding in Auckland. Keeping air between you and your rain protection reduces sweat and ultimately means the water doesn’t get through and you stay dryer.
Hooplas merino socks: These lightweight merino liner-socks give your feet a chance to breathe inside performance-fit cycle shoes.
Ground Effect Gift Card: Left your Xmas dash a bit late? A Ground Effect Gift Card is emailed to you instantly so you can print it out, tuck inside a card and pop in the stocking of that special cycling someone.
Tech
Custom built wheels: for a ride that’s really special. Or some highflow tubeless valves, on the same link.
Bone conduction headphones: Bone conduction headphones are designed to keep ear canals unobstructed, ensuring they remain aware of approaching cars.
Phone mount: For easy navigation without juggling devices.
For the younger bike-lover
Kids basket: this flower basket is the perfect place for teddy to ride.
The Bicycle Pop-Up Book: by renowned paper engineer Dominique Ehrhard, this beautifully crafted, whimsical history of the bicycle is sure to delight.
