Frequently asked questions about road bike equipment

Why special road bike clothing?

Unlike loose-fitting bike clothing, it is aerodynamically optimized and adapted to the forward-leaning riding position. This saves energy and prevents flapping in the wind.

When should I replace my equipment?

Helmets must be replaced after every fall or after 5–7 years at the latest. With clothing, you will usually notice wear and tear in the form of reduced padding or elasticity – for optimal comfort, it is worth upgrading regularly.
