Gift ideas for Father’s Day

On Father’s Day, it’s time to spoil your dad. If he is always out riding bikes, here are some gift ideas.

Garmin Edge 820

For dads not yet on Strava or who are looking for an upgraded bike computer with not only all the training features he needs but navigation features, the Garmin Edge 820 hits the mark. You can even track him while he is out riding and there is a built-in alert system that can notify loved ones if it detects a crash.

Spurcycle bell

One thing is missing on far too many bikes and that is a bell. Spurcycle makes perhaps the nicest bell available. The bell has a powerful and pleasing ring but is also aesthetically pleasing. It will help any dad notify cars, pedestrians or other cyclists of his presence on the road.

Bell Zephyr

To keep dads head from getting all sweaty this summer when he is riding, maybe it’s time to get him a new helmet. The Bell Zephyr has MIPS making it well up to scruff when it comes to protection and is good looking as well.

Shimano S-Phyre RC9 shoes

For the dad who wants to go fast a good pair of shoes are a great idea. If the ones at the doorway are smelling up the entry it’s probably a sign it’s time to swap them out. These are light and well ventilated to keep dads keep from getting all stinky while riding. They also have a stiff sole so when dad drops the hammer on his riding companies all that power is delivered straight into the pedals.

Lights

If your dad is always out late riding after work you better check his bike has some lights on it. These will keep you visible when on the road. If he commutes they will also do the trick. Rechargeable they have a good battery life as well.

De Rosa SK Pininfarina

Maybe this gift is less from the family to dad than for dad for himself. A sure way to spoil yourself this fathers day is to get a new flashy rig like the De Rosa Pinninfarina, you know you deserve it.
