LOCKS
Avoid the heartbreak and expense of having your bike or bike parts stolen by choosing the right lock for how and where you leave your bike secured when you are not using it. Cable locks are great for locking your bike up for short term errands or when you still have your bike in sight, whereas U-Locks, used with cable locks for your wheels or bolt on skewers for your seatpost and wheels, are more secure if you need to lock your bike up for the day or longer. Locks come in many different sizes and weights to suit all types of cyclists.

LIGHTS
Besides being required by law (a front white light and a rear red light) for anyone riding after dark, lights are simply one of the most important bicycle accessories you need to be safe and to be seen by motorists, pedestrians and other cyclists. Lights designed to make you visible to others are easily installed, lightweight and inexpensive -these lights are suitable for brightly lit urban streets and short commutes. Lighting systems designed to give you visibility on darker roads, longer commutes and trail riding/competition are ultra-bright, rechargeable and highly engineered - you can have as much light output as a car does!

PUMPS
Owning a bicycle pump will make keeping your tubes inflated to the recommended psi (printed on the sidewall of most bicycle tires) stress free and easy. Bicycle pumps are designed to accommodate both types of valve types (Shrader or Presta) and are easy to use. There are two types of pumps - floor pumps and frame pumps. The floor pump stays at home and gets frequent use; the frame pump goes with you on the road and is generally reserved for roadside repairs. We also carry CO2 cartridge systems for competition and/or faster road or trailside repairs.

RACKS, BAGS, and BASKETS
In addition to being fun and healthy, bicycles can also be utilitarian! Allow your bike to bear the weight and bulk of locks, gear, bags, groceries and laptops by installing a front or rear rack. You can attach bags, panniers and many child carriers to most racks. Baskets are also a great way to accessorize your bike and carry extra gear.

CHILD SEATS
If riding bikes is a big part of your life, having a child doesn't have to slow you down. Attaching a child seat to your bike allows you to share the enjoyment of cycling with your child. Safe, comfortable for the child and easily detachable, child seats are made for family fun!
