Cycling helmets are a must when riding a bicycle. Your bicycle dealer has a
variety of styles and sizes .
Take your time when buying a helmet and keep on the one you prefer for a
while before making your final choice. A good helmet should fit snug without
pinching.
Pay attention to testing symbols indicating the helmet passed the tests re-
quired by the DIN EN 1078 standards.
Be sure to only wear a bicycle helmet during cycling. Observe the manufac-
turer’s instructions.
Never ride without a helmet! But remember that even the safest
helmet is useless unless it fits properly and is correctly adjusted
and fastened .
Always wear an integral helmet and protectors whenever you
set off on a dirt, downhill or freeride bike.

Cycling pants are a must for those who appreciate sitting comfortably in
their saddle. These tight pants have a special padding in the bottom. They
are free of folds, seams and pressure that seams cause. As cycling is certain
to make you sweat, it is advisable to wear jerseys made of synthetic mate-
rial. These kinds of fibres do not absorb any moisture, but transport the
sweat away from your skin to the surface of the fabric, thus avoiding feeling
chilly due to cold headwinds. Be sure to take appropriate waterproof cloth-
ing with you when you set off on a long cycling tour. Your bicycle dealer will
be pleased to help you finding the appropriate clothing.
Never ride with wide-cut trousers or skirts that might get caught
in the spokes, chain or chainrings. To avoid any such mishap,
use suitable clips or straps, if necessary .
For increased visibility to other road users be sure to wear
bright-coloured clothing.

Apart from a cycling helmet and suitable clothing, cycling glasses are abso-
lutely essential when you set off on your bicycle .
They do not only protect your eyes from the sun and the wind, but also keep
out flies that may impede your vision when they fly into your eyes.
!
Good cycling glasses  should fit tightly to your face not allowing any wind
to affect your eyes. Cycling glasses come in a wide range of models, such
as e.g. glasses with clear lenses and without UV protection for cycling in the
dawn and at night or glasses with maximum UV protection for cycling under
extreme sunlight conditions.
Your bicycle dealer has a wide range of cycling glasses available and will be
pleased to advise you!

Cycling shoes should be made of solid material to provide firm support
for your feet. In addition, they should have a stiff sole so that the pedal can-
not press through. The sole should not be too wide in the area of the heels,
as the rear stays or the crank will otherwise get in the way of your pedalling.
This will prevent your feet from assuming a natural position when pedalling
and may cause knee pain in the long run.
Special cycling shoes are obligatory if your hybrid, mountain or road racing
bike is equipped with clipless pedals . With these shoes small cleats are
fixed to the sole . They give you a firm connection between shoe and pedal
and allow an acceptable walking position.
The main advantage is that these cycling shoes and clipless pedals prevent
your feet from slipping off when pedalling fast or when riding over rough
ground. They enable you not only to push but also to pull the pedals. This
makes your pedalling more fluid and increases the power transmission com-
pared to normal pedals. With clipless pedals you can get off the pedal very
quickly. Just turn your heel to the outside. Practise the engagement and
release of clipless pedals so that you will be prepared to face any difficult
situation.
Read the operating instructions of the pedal manufacturers. If
you are in doubt or if you have any questions, please contact
your bicycle dealer!
The usual way to engage with the pedal is to turn it from the lowest position
of the crank to the horizontal using the tip of the cleat and push down on
the back of it. Normally, the shoe engages with the pedal with a click which
you will hear and feel clearly. Cleats come in different shapes, with varying
release angles and tensions. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions,
please contact your bicycle dealer!
