Christmas is just around the corner and you are still looking for the right gift for a racing cyclist? I would like to remedy this at this point!
Find the right gift
Of course it is difficult to find the right gift. Especially when it comes to Road bike clothing I walk carefully. The danger of not buying the right size is simply too great. But fortunately there are still enough alternatives to give as gifts, you just have to know them. Whether you are still looking for a gift or put my suggestions on your wish list, I hope I can inspire you a little in any case.
Road bike air pump - CO2 pump
A treat that also on mine Select stands, because unfortunately I am not yet the proud owner of one CO2 pump, A Compressed air pump is is an extremely practical utensil. Most people use the pump as an “emergency pump” to take with them, because filling the tire is extremely quick. But the compressed air pump with CO2 is also very useful at home, just something for the "lazy" among racing cyclists.

Mini pump to go
As an alternative to the CO2 pump, I have the more widespread variant, the Mini pump. The model of Lezyne is a slightly higher-priced product, but you get the one you need with it pressure on the tires. ATTENTION: It is essential to ensure that the mini pump gets enough pressure on the tires. Unfortunately, not all mini pumps are the same.

Bicycle Rack
I can't recommend this bike stand / feedback stand often enough. I've been the proud owner of the bike rack since August and I love it! The bike stand is delivered fully assembled and is simply placed on the ground. The racing bike can then be pushed in and stands like one. I use the stand in our garage, so it's a great indoor stand

Bicycle repair stand
If you don't have one, you don't miss it, if you've had one, you can't do without it! A road bike assembly stand is really indispensable even if you are not a chronic mechanic. The assembly stand is extremely helpful for the cleaning process alone. Here is my video test report: Test report assembly stand

Bike mount for iPhone
Who does not own a high-priced bike computer is, he usually uses his smartphone to track the training sessions. In my case I use mine iPhone 6. When my old bracket broke during my fall on the Schweriner Seenrunde, I had to get a new one. My new bicycle smartphone holder makes an even better impression than my old one. the Morpheus Labs M4 The holder is rock solid, waterproof and shockproof (according to the description, luckily I haven't had to test it yet).

bike bottle
That's great Last minute Christmas present is of course the bicycle bottle. A racing cyclist can hardly have enough of these and a racing cyclist always needs new ones, at least once a season. At some point the mouthpieces are simply sucked off or you just lose one. My personal favorite bottles are those from Elite with 750 ml, 500ml is just not enough for me. the bike Elite drinking bottles make BPA Free (plasticizer for plastic) and seal very well. You can't go wrong with this, the right gift for racing cyclists is guaranteed.
I hope I was able to inspire you a little and I bet I found the right gift for your wish list.
