Hackney GT Betty jersey

Created from the passion for cycling, Hackney GT are famed for their quirky designs and exclusivity.

This year, we’ve seen the introduction of their new MTB jerseys and we are loving the “Betty” – it’s bold, it’s bright and it totally channels your inner animal when you’re going hard on those trails with a relentless ferocity. Made from a thick and breathable polyester, this jersey is ideal for anything the British weather has to throw at it.

The Hackney GT Betty jersey is available is sizes x.small to xx.large here for £55.

“Dirt Don’t Hurt” – women’s vest

We can’t help but love the mountain bike lifestyle and, of course, that means wearing our bikes on our sleeves – literally.

This Etsy find is a total must for the post-ride or for the casual wear. Available in a number of different colours, it’s a simple hand-printed cotton vest displaying a motto that we can all live by “dirt don’t hurt”.

Available in sizes small to xx.small here for £18.

DMR Death Grip

Don’t forget her bike needs gifts too!

The DMR Deathgrips have gone down a storm in mountain biking. With a waffle, knurl and mushroom texture all blended into one grip, your hand is comfortable and well planted throughout the ride.

Not only are DMR Deathgrips available in a variety of great colours, but you can also get them in a thick or thin width.

Madison Zena jacket

Madison’s new AW17 mountain bike collection for women is a definite winner. Famed for their high-quality weatherproof riding kit, the British brand has continued to strengthen their sterling reputation.

The new Zena waterproof jacket is available in three striking colours; pink, purple and black. It’s form-fitting, comfortable and looks so casual that it’s totally passable for casual wear too!

Hope Carbon Handlebar

Can you imagine this carbon handlebar adorning the front her steed?

Made from tried and tested carbon, this bar is 780mm wide, with a 20mm rise and 31.8mm diameter. They weigh an incredible 225g and they look seriously slick.

Timber! mountain bike bell

Ok, we know that bells aren’t considered “cool” in the mountain bike community. If you come across another rider or walker on the trial, it’s common to just call out and hope they hear you.

The Timber! mountain bike bell is pretty cool though. It’s cable actuated so when the trigger is pressed, the cable slackens on the bell and it’ll ring out using the momentum and roughness of the terrain. Flip the trigger again and the cable tightens and the ringing stops. Easy.

The Timber! mountain bike bell is available here from £25.

Troy Lee Designs Ruckus Shorts

You can’t go wrong with a good pair of trail shorts and Troy Lee Designs’ Ruckus shorts are just the ticket.

Available in three flat colours, these shorts are understated, simple and built for trail shredding. They have an ajustable wasitband to dial in the perfect fit and are coated in a water repellent membrane.

Fox Deny Flannel shirt

Are you even a mountain biker if you don’t wear plaid?

This flannel shirt from Fox is a total winner with us. It’s stylish and effortlessly cool, perfect for the post-ride and everyday wear, oh, and the added hood feature makes it extra cosy in the winter.

Park Tool Home Mechanic Starter Kit

No mountain biker should be without a trusted set of tools to help keep the bike running smooth.

Park Tool is the obvious go-to option for most bike shops and training centres because they’re reliable, high-quality and last an age. This home starter kit is ideal for those of you looking to get your hands a little dirty taking care of the basics.

Hope women’s shirt

If the Hope Tech bling is a little beyond your budget, or you’re looking for a stocking filler, then check out this women’s t-shirt. Show your love for the British brand and wear this tee on the trails or around town.

The Hope Tech women’s t-shirt is available here for £20.

Scott Contessa Genius

If money is no issue, and you want her to feel like a Queen of the Mountains, then splash out on the stunning new Scott Contessa Genius.

It’s playful and poppy, but don’t be deceived by the women’s specific title as this bike means business. A whopping 150mm front/rear travel, boost hub spacing and improved pedal clearance makes this machine a total dream.

It’s elegant and stylish, with a number of build options to suit the rider and the budget. We had some serious fun riding this beauty in Switzerland.
