The 9 Most Practical Pieces Of Gear For Beginner Riding!

1. Turban

The hood is a very versatile outdoor equipment. The headscarf can be used as a mask to prevent dust, tied to the forehead to absorb sweat, tied to the wrist to wipe sweat, and so on.

2. Multifunctional repair tool

Ride with a small multi-purpose repair tool, more than enough to handle minor glitches on the road.

 

3. Tail bag

We all know that cycling clothes have limited pockets, so you need a tail bag!

Tire patches, gas cylinders, energy bars, money, keys… you can put anything you can think of in the bag, and the rear seat doesn’t get in the way of riding.If you like long distances, you can also choose some larger tail bags.

4. Foot pedal

Riding requires constant and repetitive pedaling, so having a good pedal is also important. Ordinary pedals are also divided into good and bad. For example, is the pedal contact area large enough? How strong is it? How is the lubricity? These are all important, and you don't want to waste a lot of energy on friction!

5. Small cap

One is to prevent sweat from dripping into the eyes along the forehead, and the other is to block the direct rays of strong light to the eyes, so that everyone can maintain a good judgment ability, and of course, it can protect your hair!

6. Helmet

Always wear a helmet while riding! At least in the event of a crash, the head can be protected. When purchasing, we pay attention to whether the products have EU CE, EN1078 certification or North American CPSC certification, as well as the more stringent German and Swiss TUV and SGS certification, etc.

7. Gloves

Gloves can not only reduce the danger caused by sweaty and slippery hands, but the thick pads on the gloves can absorb the shock and impact of riding and reduce hand numbness.

8. Cycling glasses

Without proper protection measures, it is very easy to cause eye diseases, especially when long-distance riding is windy, and there may even be serious consequences due to flying insects or foreign objects flying into the eyes.


When choosing cycling glasses, the principle of at least half-coverage and seamless fit should be followed to prevent foreign objects from entering the eyes.

 

In order to reduce the damage of light and ultraviolet rays to the eyes, you can choose anti-UVA and UVB lenses, and the color of the lenses is mainly gray and brown.

9. Cycling clothes

How to choose a set of cycling clothing is also what many riders care about most. Functionally, a suitable cycling clothing can make you ride more comfortably and efficiently.

Its special material and close-fitting tailoring can effectively transport the sweat on the body surface to the surface of the clothes through the clothing fibers, and quickly evaporate while riding, achieving the purpose of efficient perspiration and dry riding.

In terms of design, the elastic close-fitting tailoring can effectively reduce the wind resistance and reduce the discomfort caused by the friction between the clothes and the skin.

At the same time, the inner pad design of the cycling pants can properly absorb shock, diffuse the pressure distribution, and reduce the pressure on the private parts of the meeting.
