Trek Circuit Women’s LTD Jersey

The Circuit LTD is a highly versatile riding jersey designed for use in temperatures ranging from lows of around 16° to highs of 38° C. It fits close to the body and has a stretchy material that maintains comfort for the full duration of the ride.

By incorporating sustainably sourced materials — more specifically recycled water bottles — into its construction, Trek has done its best to minimize harm to the planet. The Circuit LTD Jersey has three open rear pockets, silicone grippers and a drop-tail design. The retro styling is very lekker. trekbikes.com

Bontrager Evoke Gloves

R450 R650

The Bontrager Evoke Gloves have a soft interior with minimal seams to maximize comfort. The non-padded palm design reduces the chances of the material bunching up and, it improves trail feedback.

The AX Suede palm is water-resistant to prevent slippage when wet. With excellent breathability and full-finger coverage, the Evoke gloves are ideal for hours of singletrack adventure, on mildly warm or swelteringly hot days. trekbikes.com

Trek Circuit Bib Shorts

R1400 R2000

The Circuit Bibs feature a posh Elite inForm Chamois with design stemming from Italy and the Trek Performance Lab. They feature a fitted cut for that racer look, silicone grippers to ‘stay put’, and low-profile bib straps that complete the slick look.

Designed for all-day comfort and rides up to two and a half hours, these bibs look and feel very close to a top-level bib that would retail at twice the price. The lightweight material is designed to breathe well and has a high elasticity property that prolongs its life. trekbikes.com

Bontrager Ion Pro Front Light

R1500 R2100

The Ion Pro has all the features that constitute a great bike light. It has five modes that scale from the full 1300 lumens — that’ll light everything up — down to the ‘day flash’ mode that lasts a full 22 hours.

It has an adjustable mount that fits bars from 25.4mm through to 35mm and can be mounted to a helmet. The water-resistant rating of IPX4 means you’ll have no issues in light rain and with splashes of water or sweat. Lastly, the Ion Pro light is robust, durable, and easy to mount. We have one in our office that’s five years old and works like a charm. trekbikes.com

Bontrager Flare Rear Light

R750 R1100

The Flare Rear Light has a rubber bracket that easily mounts to seat tubes or seat posts and promises as much as 2km of daytime visibility. With five power modes to choose from, it’ll run for six hours on the brightest setting of 90 lumens, or, on the lowest power mode of five lumens you’ll get 13,5 hours of usage.

This is a compact and powerful rear light that has a high waterproof rating (IPX7) ensuring you can ride through very heavy rain and wet conditions, without worry. trekbikes.com

Bontrager Rapid Pack

R750 R1300

There are a few factors driving the popularity of hip-based hydration packs. Riding with a sweat-free back, unhindered shoulders, and having no straps around the chest/lung area are the main pulls. The modern hip hydration systems are also a lot better than the early units.

The Rapid Pack is ideal for gravel, Trail riding and eMTB outings. It’s especially handy for those with bikes that don’t have space for a water bottle cage. It holds your water bottle in the center of your back and a mesh pull loop helps to insert and remove the bottle. Two zippered pockets have plenty of room for valuables, food and spares. trekbikes.com

Bontrager R3 Hard-Case Lite Road Tyre

R550 R950

The Hard-Case Lite has a proprietary compound designed to roll fast, it is lightly treaded to add traction when you are cranked over, plus it has reflective sidewalls for increased visibility.

A thin nylon insert beefs up the puncture resistance without adding weight or detracting from the soft ride feel. This tyre is light enough to race, has plenty of durability and puncture resistance, and is a bombproof performance tyre you’ll fit and forget. trekbikes.com

Bontrager Specter WaveCel Helmet

R1800 R2800

Featuring the brand’s own WaveCel technology, this helmet was included in TIME Magazine’s list of 100 Best Inventions. WaveCel is a honeycomb-like structure on the inside of the helmet that acts as a crumple zone absorbing the forces of an impact, before they reach the rider’s head.

The Specter has a BOA Fit System making on-the-fly adjustments super easy and has a highly ventilated design directing airflow onto your head, keeping you cool. We love the soft and comfortable, moisture-wicking padding. trekbikes.com //
