Signs as pictures

Conquering one of cycling's legendary climbs is one of the best moments of a racing cyclist's life. The many images in your head from past bike races mix with your own view of the steep road. A supplier from the Netherlands produces vintage-style aluminium route signs (20 x 30 cm) of the most important climbs in cycling. A beautiful gift that will reactivate the images in your head. The huge selection ranges from the Galibier to the Poggio and the Koppenberg.

Stay clean!

There is hardly any other product that is so simple and functional at the same time. With the Ass Savers, a couple of Swedish cycling buddies invented a simple alternative to mudguards in 2011. There are now numerous competing products as well as models for all types of bikes and even variants with extended attachment, as with classic mudguards. However, the classic splash guard made of thin plastic, which you simply slide under the saddle, still has the greatest charm. A small, useful gift.

Back shift lever

The first Campagnolo Super Record is considered an icon of bicycle technology and is highly coveted by fans of old racing bikes. However, this passion for collecting is rarely on display. The key fob in the shape of the down tube lever of the legendary gearstick is discreet, but always there. This highly polished piece of jewellery is undoubtedly an original: the accessory is available directly from Campagnolo.

Sport speculoos

The "Amacx Energy Nougat Speculoos" is recommended for all cyclists who train during the Christmas period and don't want to miss out on the seasonal flavour of an energy bar. With a soft bite and 30 grams of carbohydrates, it provides the right energy for winter cycling laps - refined with a speculoos nougat flavour.

Grand Tour Triple

To date, no professional cyclist has won the historic Grand Tour triple of the Giro, Tour and Vuelta. Even legends such as Eddy Merckx or the dominator Tadej Pogačar have had to miss out so far. What even the best were denied is now within reach for amateur cyclists - at least at the coffee machine. With the "Grand Tours" cappuccino cup set from Cyclebean - inspired by the Giro, Tour and Vuelta. The thick-walled cups with cycling designs come straight from Italy and are perfect for a coffee break between the roll and the winter lap.

Stop line

Available in three lengths, the BruschM leather belt from Maloja with embroidered racing bike holds on to every cyclist's waist: up to 90 centimetres it fits tall mountain goats, at 100 centimetres the all-rounder can flexibly hold trousers and at 110 centimetres every sprinter is also dressed appropriately in their free time. Six holes offer flexibility when buckling between top form and winter blues. The four centimetre wide and four millimetre thick leather strap is available in brown and black.

As a student of German and political science, the flawless amateur sportsman once decided to try his luck as a journalist. His passion for racing bikes led him straight to the TOUR editorial team as an intern, which has since become an affair of the heart that has lasted more than 30 years, 16 of them as editor-in-chief. As a - in his own words - "generalist in the cycling niche", he is interested in all topics relating to road bikes (and gravel bikes) and is still particularly enthusiastic about racing today. Highlights of his own career as a racing cyclist include taking part in the TOUR-Transalp, the odd everyman race and regular Alpine tours with friends.
