Clothing
Choosing the right cycling clothing for your needs can be almost as
hard as choosing the right bicycle. Never before has there been so
many different fabrics, brands and styles to choose from.
At Oak Bay Bicycle not only do we stock the latest gear, our
professional staff can recommend clothing which will best suit your
needs. We carry all the latest brands to cater to all tastes.
Helmets
For any cyclist who hails from British
Columbia, not wearing a helmet whilst cycling is a crime. For those
of you who live elsewhere, the rules may differ depending on the
safety stance of your individual province or country. Whether or not
you are required to wear a helmet by law, we recommend you always do
so in the interests of your own safety.
Helmets have been proven to reduce the risk of serious head injuries
for riders unfortunate enough to be involved in an accident. As the
old saying goes: prevention is better than the cure. Not only that,
helmets are no longer worn only for safety, they have become a major
fashion accessory and are available in numerous colours, sizes and
designs.
At Oak Bay Bicycle we stock a range of high quality helmets. When
you wear one of our helmets you can be sure that you are giving your
head the best protection money can buy.
Shoes
When you are cycling it is
essential that you wear shoes which are up to the job, otherwise you
will end up with feet which are tired and sore. We recommend that
you use either cycling shoes or a pair of high quality running
shoes. If you do a lot of cycling it is worth investing in some
cycling shoes as they will improve your efficiency as well as
providing your feet with the support they need whilst you are in the
saddle.
Cycling shoes should offer strength, comfort and high performance as
well as an attractive finish. This is why at Oak Bay Bicycle we
stock only the best cycling shoes on the market. Whether you are
into road racing and touring or mountain bike riding we have what
you need to make your feet thank you for years to come. Check out
our range of shoes and see exactly how good cycling can get.
