Protective Gear

Cycling protective gear has become a critical piece of equipment for mountain bikers.  As bike suspension, geometry and our riding has advanced so too have the protective guards that are available today.  Gone are the days of big, bulky and stifling leg armour or cumbersome chest pieces that caused you to sweat and fatigue.  Today's cycling protective gear is lightweight, mobile, minimalist with an added ergonomics that just was not available in the original days of Roach pads.

At The Bike Shop, we offer a large selection of cycling protective gear including shin guards, knee pads, hip protection, arm guards, elbow guards, body armour/chest protection, and spinal protection.  We stock and/or sell the best models from Fox Racing, iXS, Leatt, POC, and Race Face.
