Gifts for cyclists can be tough for the planet too. So we’ve tried to choose products that we love because they’re kinder to the environment, whether that’s using recycled materials or eco-conscious design principles.

So let’s get to it - these 25 gifts are bound to bring joy to the cyclist in your life. Read on to get some inspo.

Up to £30

Tyre Glider Tyre Lever for Tubeless Tyres - £9.99

Perhaps the ultimate tyre lever? Cyclists ask a lot of their tyre levers. Tyre levers are often small and flimsy tools that can mean the difference between making it home or an expensive taxi.

This model from Tyre Glider makes changing a tyre easy and accessible to everyone. The “wing” clip allows for swift removal, while the compact design makes it an obvious accessory for carrying in a back pocket or saddle bag.

Albion Repair Kit - £10

Albion are a British brand that make high-quality cycling apparel, built for classic British conditions, which usually involves a fair few puddles and a biting wind.

Passionate about their responsibility to the planet, these five iron-on woven repair patches are a simple way of fixing up minor rips or snags. The kit also includes two spare zip pullers. For a keen cyclist, this stocking filler can be a lifesaver.

Muc Off Puncture Plug - £15

Another lifesaver of a stocking filler. This tubeless repair kit from Muc-Off gives you everything you need to fix punctures in your road, mountain bike, or gravel tyres at the roadside without the need to resort to using an inner tube.

The plugs come in a storage pouch that keeps everything together and fit nicely into a pocket or rucksack.

Knog Oi Classic Bike Bell - £19.99

Bike bells can be a tetchy subject for cyclists. They’re useful, but rarely look sleek. This is where the Oi comes in.

Designed for cyclists, with style in mind, the Knog Oi fits naturally on the handlebars and is just as effective at making your presence known on the local bike path or gravel loop. Choose from four colours with some extra styles like the ‘Luxe’ or ‘Prima’.

Topeak Road MasterBlaster Frame Pump - £17.99 - £19.99

A frame pump is a throwback to the days of steel frames and fitted mudguards, but this Topeak model brings the idea firmly into the modern era. It’ll save precious time during a wintry puncture stop, especially compared to those dreaded mini pumps. Light, durable, and reliable, it’s an easy companion for every ride - and with four available sizes, there’s an option to suit almost any bike.

Veloforte Energy Bars - £18.69

All-natural, and genuinely delicious – Veloforte energy bars are award-winning and packed with real fruit, nuts and energy-boosting carbs. They’re ideal for endurance rides or turbo-charged indoor sessions. A tasty and slightly festive-tasting snack for any cyclist.

Tadej Pogacar: Unstoppable by Andy McGrath - £20

With interviews from those closest to him, former coaches, and a trip to the UAE tour, McGrath goes all in on uncovering the ‘Pogi’ phenomenon.

Universal Colours Polartech Neckwarmer - £20

It’s the time of year when a neckwarmer, scarf, or buff becomes an essential cycling accessory. Polartec is great for breathability and keeping heat, while also light enough to be stored in a jersey pocket.

This neckwarmer from Universal Colours is also made from leftover fabric from the Universal Colours base-layer. A smart eco-conscious design choice.

Prologo Onetouch 2 Bar Tape - £27.99

For cyclists, there’s perhaps no better gift than that new-bike feeling. And while a fresh set of wheels might cost thousands, new bar tape comes in under £50 and can make a bike feel instantly fresh.

This high-performance tape from Prologo is comfortable, grippy, and easy to install - a deluxe upgrade that fits almost any drop-bar bike.

Spatz Neoprene Toe Warmers - £29.99

These toe warmers offer great protection against wintry conditions, especially those days where there is a nip in the air. Longer than most, Spatz Neoprene toe warmers offer the most protection from wind chill.
Plus if you’re looking for something more protective you cannot look beyond Spatz’s Pro overshoe system.

Up to £75

Topeak Mini 20 Pro Multitool - £35

One of the best pound-for-pound multitools out there, the Topeak Mini 20 Pro packs a lot into its 150g frame.

Adidas Velosamba - £66 - £130

Move through your commute and into the office in one seamless sweep with the Adidas Velosambas. This take on the classic Adidas trainer features a two-bolt cleat mount on the sole, meaning you can clip in on the bike and walk around comfortably once you’re off it.

tons Wall Mount - £100

Bike storage isn’t always easy, and it often ends up looking a bit messy. tons are trying to change that with their 3D-printed hooks and hangers, designed to turn a bike into a genuine centrepiece. The printing process avoids overproduction and waste, while the use of premium solid oak adds a touch of craft to the clean, modern design.

Restrap Bar Pack (10 Litres) - £119.99

Fit for shop runs, off-road adventures and audaxes, this handmade bar bag from Restrap is the perfect all day companion. It provides 10 litres of capacity, with room for a clip-on front light and includes a D-lock holster too.

Albion Visibility Cargo Vest - £125

Designed for long-distance cyclists, this vest combines 360-degree high-strength reflectivity with a functional load-carrying design, ensuring visibility and comfort on extended rides. The vest is packable, meaning it can be easily stored in a frame bag or rucksack. A top addition for a commuter, audaxer, or endurance racer.

Over £150

Universal Colours Mono Cargo Bib Tight (Men’s and Women’s) - £165

Another winter essential, bib tights are a must for riding in colder weather. This cargo pair from Universal Colours features two leg pockets for ride essentials, whether that’s nutrition or a packable layer.

They’re built with comfort front and centre, using a premium endurance chamois with multi-density hybrid foam. More than enough support to get you through those long winter endurance rides.

Van Rysel D100 Indoor Trainer - £199.99

It’s almost unbelievable that you can get an indoor smart trainer for just £199.99. But that’s what Decathlon’s latest D100 is. It will connect to all of the top training apps like Zwift, Rouvy, TrainerRoad, and is suitable for almost any bike.

It’s an extremely well-priced indoor trainer and the perfect antidote for those dark winter evenings. Note that this is an entry-level trainer with a max wattage of 600W. Ideal if you’re not sprinting, hitting big power, or smaller, but could be an inconvenience for racers or heavier riders. Overall, it’s a top beginner-friendly indoor training package.

Abus Airbreaker 2.0 - £270

The Airbreaker is one of the most popular high-performance helmets around — and for good reason. At just 215g (size M), it’s incredibly light, feeling almost invisible on the head, so it never restricts movement or distracts from the ride. Abus’ Aero Blade™ design at the rear helps manage airflow and reduce drag, giving you a small but meaningful aerodynamic edge without adding any bulk.

Add in the generous ventilation, plush padding, and rock-solid build quality, and you’ve got a helmet that works just as well for long summer endurance days as it does for flat-out efforts. It’s a genuine WorldTour-level upgrade.

Oakley Meta Vanguard - £499

Powered by Meta AI and Garmin, these Oakley Meta Vanguard glasses have hands-free POV video capture and immersive audio thanks to powerful open-ear speakers built into the temples.

They’re not cheap, but when you consider they’re an action camera, a pair of headphones, sunglasses, and more all rolled into one, they start to look like the ultimate cycling tech package.
