Last minute?!
Yep. One measly week left. Don't squander it at the mall.
In this installment of Chicago's ULTIMATE Cyclist Gift Guide, we race through Rapid Transit, and grab everything that seems like a good idea for a cyclist on your holiday list. Big or small, there is something here for everyone.
- Folding Multi-tools ($20-50).
- KRYPTONITE Evolution Mini ($65) compact bicycle lock.
- Festive handlebar tape ($12-20). Available in a rainbow of colors, this will dress up any road bike.
- Safety-orange helmet ($57), or other stylish helmets
- Something warm for under the helmet (headbands, beanies and such from $12). Also, a selection of one-of-a-kind cycling caps made by our very own Elise (modeled by Elise & Ben).
- Handlebar or helmet mirror (<$20).
- Smartwool socks ($12-20; after you've tried these, it's hard to go back to ordinary socks).
- Brooks leather bicycle seat (from about $70).
- Rear rack. This JANDD Expdition rack ($82) is a workhorse; other racks available from about $40.
- Rainwear. From a simple helmet cover to a full rain suit, this will be appreciated by any hardy cyclist.
- "I Love My Bike" bell , and other bells (from $5).
You could also get lights, clipless pedals, tires, bags, fenders, cycle computers, handlebar grips, horns, baskets, cargo trailers, kid trailers, heck, you could even get a bike! OK, I'm all out of breath. If you need more ideas, click here. You can access all our coupons here. Oh, and Merry Christmas.
