7 Stylish Urban Cycling Tops

These urban cycling tops look great on and off the bike

Women’s cycling wear is becoming more stylish, functional and versatile – it seems that the big brand designers are beginning to listen to the needs and wants of the average female cyclist. With clothing becoming more available in a variety of sizes, colours, fits and materials, we’re really feeling spoilt for choice.

Going out for a quick spin on the bike can cover anything from popping to the shops, to a leisurely roll around the local park. Although, we don’t always plan on where our bikes will take us, so we like to be prepared for all encounters and all cases.

These urban cycling jerseys and tops are great for riding in, and their subtle designs allow them to look great off the bike too, just in case you find yourself at the pub for a cheeky pint.
