Obtaining Custom Cycle Gear

Although most individuals who bike as a past time do not require custom cycle gear, there are other individuals that are into racing their bikes or have special health conditions that require custom cycle gear in order to be able to safely and comfortably ride. Pro cycle gear tends to be more custom made since individuals have to conform to the racing rules in regard to their gear. However, for the average rider, there are so many different brands and styles of riding gear on the market today that there is not a need to have gear made for them since they can mix and match styles and brands to make an outfit that works best for them.

Types of Gear

One type of custom cycle gear is the bicycle shoe. There are some individuals that have a foot that does not fit comfortably into the average styles of bicycling shoes on the market. There are also some cyclists that are racing and require a bicycling shoe that will hold to the toe clip more readily for a stronger pedaling capacity, or will require the shoe to release more readily so that they have more versatility during the race. In other cases, the rider might need more support in the riding shoe so that their foot does not get as tired during the ride.

Another type of custom cycle gear is the cycling jersey. Although there are many different types on the market today, there may be some professional riders that require that the pockets of the jersey be placed in a specific place so that it is easier for them to reach their snack or water during a race. In other cases they like the sleeve lengths to be just so, or for the fit of the jersey to more closely conform to their body type. This is more common for women riders who have different breast sizes in proportion to their rib cage size, thus requiring a custom made shirt to complete their cycle gear.

Biking shorts are another type of cycle gear that is likely to be custom made. The biking shorts will fit all riders differently and the padding within the shorts needs to fit the user just right for the maximum comfort of the rider during the trek. Some riders prefer to have a shorter length of biking short, and others will want to have a longer short, depending on their needs.
