We’ve been waiting for it and it’s finally back: the biking season. Our excitation rushes us to go ride outside, very often despite the few minutes of preparation required. So we have put together a list of essentials to bring during your road or hybrid bike rides, so you will never be caught off guard.
Nutrition and energy
Energy bars and gels are essential for prolonging your workouts and maintaining optimum performance. They prevent fatigue and provide your body with the energy it needs. Available in a range of flavors, brands such as Krono Nutrition for bars and GU for gels are just a few examples from our selection, designed to meet everyone's needs and preferences.


Repair kit
There's nothing worse than being caught unawares by a sudden flat tire and having to hastily end our outing. There are several repair kits available containing everything we need to get us back home, including Park Tool's TR-1. This includes 2 tire levers, 6 patches of various sizes, glue and sandpaper, so you can respond perfectly and quickly to any emergency.


Tubes
When a repair is no longer sufficient, it's best to replace the inner tube. Compact and practical, it fits easily into a bag or jersey pocket, ready to be used when needed.


Mini pump
Once the tube is changed, it only takes a few bursts of air before you can get off on the right foot. Better to have a mini-pump on hand that can quickly inflate it in case of unforeseen.


Chamois cream
The chamois cream helps prevent chafing and uncomfortable rubbing that most cyclists experience when sitting on their saddle. You can trust Chamois Butt’r which, in addition to soothing you, will leave no trace on your clothes or your skin. Also, there are creams specially adapted for women.


Saddle bag
All these accessories can perfectly fit in a saddle bag until you need them. They come in many sizes and can be attached in different ways to fit a wide range of bikes. Bontrager Pro Quick Cleat model is available in three different capacities so it can carry all your essentials, and it even allows the installation of a rear light for more security.
