Shoes And Other Bike Clothing Online
At one time you could only buy cycling equipment at your local cycle shop, if they had what you wanted or you had to hope they could order it and then you would have to wait for it to come and hope it was the right size, colour or price. Then cycling magazines started to have adverts for the bigger stores and you could post off a cheque and wait for your prized article to arrive. Now things could not be easier, your at home watching the Tour de France on television, you see you hero attack on the mountainous slopes of Alpe-d'Huez,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], what are those sexy carbon cranks he's using? They look like FSA or are they Campagnolo, they could be Stella Azurra, which are they? How much will they cost? Where can I get them? Well, get on the Web, put the name of that most wanted item into your search engine and see what it comes up with. The next move can be nearly as exciting as riding your bike up the mountains, that's making comparisons of all the equipment, something you probably wont be able to do at your local cycle shop and then ordering it online,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the worst bit is waiting for it to arrive.
All the top cycle components, clothing, frames and cycle manufacturers have their own web-sites, once you've found what you really want for your bike, most sites can link you to a retail out let,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], from there, with the use of your credit card you can order the goods on-line, or check out a store near to where you live and if they stock what you are looking for. This is best for items of clothing, shorts and jersey sizes vary from one maker to another and there is nothing worse than receiving your new professional look a like kit and it is too big or small, so get down to your local cycle shop or sports store, try on your choice for size and if all is OK, you can buy it there and then or if you don't mind waiting and it's at a better price, order and pay for it online and wait for it to arrive in the post to your house.
There are many cycling shoes on the market, and finding the right ones for you can be hard. Look them up on the web, go through the search engine or if you have a particular make in mind, find them online and if you can't try some in a shop, this is best, because size can be a problem,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one manufacturer size 9 could be a half size bigger or smaller than another company, and most of the best cycling shoes are Italian,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so remember that European sizes are very different from American or English sizes, and German shoes are wider and Italian shoes are narrower and you may be looking for a size 44 or 45, so try as many different shoes you can and then make your decision. Very importantly with shoes is which pedal system you are using, Look, Shimano, Campagnolo, Time and all the other systems have different fittings on the sole of the shoe, check up which they have on the shoe manufacturers web-site and then it should then be safe to order them online.
An other good and very important item you could look for online is a cycle helmet, as with most cycling goods there are many different helmets on the market, some times the helmets you see on the heads of the professionals are difficult to find, but anything is possible on the net, just type it in and away you go, it may be that just the helmet you are looking for is available in Holland, get it ordered, it may take some time to come but if its what you want it'll be worth it. Sizes of helmets, like shoes can vary, so if it is possible to try before you buy, then make sure it's a comfortable fit, the big difference between cycle shoes and helmets is that helmets come with different pads to go inside so you can make the helmet fit exactly, which could help if you've ordered the wrong size, this is not something you can do with cycling shoes.
The net is a great way to find the frame size you want for your new bike, with the new sloping frame designs it can be tricky to know which size to order, all frame designers have their own ideas for what is best, so if you know the top tube length of your present bike then you can compare online with the design dimensions on the manufacturers web-site and then you will know what size to order either at you local bike shop or from your internet supplier. But chances are they would recognize the idea behind the technology. Before air conditioning or other cooler types .
