Bike Helmets

No matter what style of cycling you enjoy, keeping your head safe is critical, as even the most expert bikers can fall. This is where helmets come into play. We take your safety seriously, which is why we offer a large selection of bike helmets. We have bike helmets for men and women, as well as smaller helmets for children, in a variety of designs and styles.

Cycling Jerseys

Cycling jerseys are an essential component of any cyclist’s clothing; they come in a variety of styles and fits, making it difficult to choose the appropriate one. We’ve tried to make everything as simple as possible here at Evans Cycles. When selecting a bike jersey, consider the type of cycling you’ll be doing and the time of year you’ll be wearing it. For example, will you be road cycling and looking for a road jersey, or mountain biking and looking for an MTB jersey, and will it be spring, summer, or winter? We have something for everyone, whether you’re a fair-weather rider seeking a new short sleeve or an MTB rider in need of a long sleeve jersey.

ENDURA FS260-Pro Short Sleeve Jersey II

Endura’s classic road jersey has been redesigned to be one step ahead of the competition while staying loyal to the FS260-Pro concept of a functional, no-nonsense kit. 

Bike Shorts

The most important piece of riding clothing is most likely a nice pair of bike shorts. Cycling shorts with a padded chamois will keep you comfortable on the bike so you can ride longer, harder, and faster. So, whether you need padded bike shorts for mountain biking or bib shorts for all-day road riding, browse our selection of bike shorts.

Kalas Alpecin Fenix Elite Bib Shorts

Replica of bib-shorts supplied by our Elite line to the pro continental team Alpecin-Fenix. They have an anatomical cut, are made of high quality, compressive Lycra Power fabric, and offer exceptional flexibility and breathability. Mesh bracing to regulate temperature, an Elastic Interface cushion, and comfortable leg grippers all contribute to a genuine competition quality short.

Cycling Shoes

Cycling shoes will improve the quality and efficiency of your ride. There’s something for every discipline available from bestselling brands including Specialized shoes and Shimano shoes. Many shoes are intended to function with clipless pedals and will require a cleat to secure you to the bike – ensuring that all of your labor transfers down the cranks and propels you forward. Mountain bike shoes are built for maximum performance and security in the saddle, as well as a grip when you get off, but road bike shoes have a firmer sole and are lighter in weight. Urban commuters should consider our winter pairs for improved rain and wind protection.

Bontrager XXX LTD Road Cycling Shoe

The Bontrager XXX is the world’s most complex road cycling shoe. From heel to toe, it’s professional-grade, crafted from the most sumptuous materials available, and recognized for its customized fit and unsurpassed pedaling efficiency. The same shoe worn by the world’s top racers is now available in a limited-edition LTD colorway. The asymmetrical design and improved lace routing system helps to alleviate top-of-foot pressure while giving a more secure fit.

Cycling Gloves & Mitts

Look no further if you’re seeking some of the greatest cycling gloves. Evans Cycles has a large selection of full-finger gloves and cycling mitts for you to pick from. Gloves are useful to have whether you’re riding on the trails or on the road because they not only protect your hands from the cold but also improve your grip on the handlebars. If you need a padded glove, take a look at the gel gloves we have in store. If you’re riding in the summer, mitts may be a better alternative because they’re short-fingered gloves meant to provide extra traction while also keeping your hands cool.

FOX Ranger Glove

The Ranger Gloves are noted for providing performance and quality normally found only in much more expensive gloves. This flexible mountain bike glove is a yearly best-seller that performs well in virtually any discipline. The Ranger Glove continues to set the standard for performance, fit, and value in a low-cost, stylish MTB glove.

Arm Warmers & Leg Warmers

Arm and leg warmers provide a lot of adaptability to your cycling outfit. Cycling arm warmers and leg warmers are a wonderful alternative to choose when you don’t want to wear a long sleeve jersey because the weather may be so unpredictable, with some mornings starting out chilly and the afternoon hot. When the weather warms up during the day, you may easily slide these into your pocket.

KALF Leg Warmer

The Kalf Thermal Leg Warmer is ideal for keeping your bottom half warm in the face of chilly winds, rain, and road spray. They are made of a high thermal-rated fabric and include silicone grippers to keep you sealed in and zipped ankles to make them easier to put on. These leg warmers are ideal for journeys that require layering (think frigid early beginnings or cycling as the sun sets) and will keep you toasty mile after mile.

KALF Arm Warmer

The Kalf Thermal Arm Warmer is an essential layer for riding in the winter months. It is designed for comfort and warmth. Arms are frequently exposed to cold wind and rain, which can make for a bumpy ride. The thermal fabric in these arm warmers keeps you toasty, while the elasticated cuffs and grips keep you comfortable during the ride.

Cycling Glasses & Googles

Wearing eyeglasses when cycling isn’t merely to protect you from the sun, though that is an important consideration. Wearing eyewear can also protect you from strong winds, mosquitoes, and small stones that may fly up and hit you while riding. We have a variety of glasses for you to pick from, including those with interchangeable lenses that allow you to easily adjust to different lighting conditions, as well as anti-fog glasses to help with fogging up while riding.

Developed for heavy use in cycling, triathlon, and mountain biking.
