The Versatility of Knickers

Too hot for pants. Too cold for shorts. Get the right protection and the right fit with a pair of cycling knickers. Often made from stretchy Lycra, these knee- or calf-length cycling “pants” roll with the punches when temperamental weather tags along for the ride. Because of their versatility knickers are particularly great during spring and fall.

Road Biking Specific Jackets

With windbreaker in the front and venting in the back, road bike specific jackets are much more comfortable for road biking than any general light jacket. Cyclists get up to some pretty high speeds and the windbreaker front can keep that wind chill down while the breathable back keeps you from overheating when you slow down for uphills.
