Holiday Gift Guide!

Having a hard time coming up with gift ideas for your bicycle enthusiast friend or family member?

Check out these parts, accessories and bits n' bobs that the C&L crew have been loving this past year!

Spray.bike

If you’re unfamiliar with what makes Spray.Bike special, the spray is more like a powder than a liquid. That means that you don’t have to be a professional spay-painter to get a nice drip-less application. And, with the massive amount of colours and finishes to choose from, almost anything is possible! Check out #spraybike for inspiration!

Blue Lug knickknacs

We’ve been getting a steady supply of Blue Lug goodies all summer. Keeping the walls stocked was a challenge! From the ever popular reflective triangles, to bolt-on lights, cargo bungee nets, t-shirts, hats, etc, Blue Lug just seem to never miss when it comes to fun nic-nacs. Perfect stocking stuffers!

Kryptonite locks

Ok, maybe not the most exciting gift. But, for your friend that leaves their bike outside at night with a sketchy combination cable lock, nothing says “I care about you… and your bike” like a new Kryptonite lock. Backed with a lifetime warranty.

Timemore grinder

This grinder caught our eye during one of our #coffeeoutside rides. As soon as we saw it, we knew we had to get some for ourselves! Not only does it look good, its compact size and high-quality grind make it perfect for #coffeeoutside!

Gary’s tee

Get your loved one to rep youtube’s favourite bike restoreur with one of these sweet T-shirts!

Memento rack

We love Memento racks! Made in Montreal by our pals, its simple design and impeccable craftspersonship make it a no-brainer for carrying lots of stuff on your bike. These are made by an engineer and a bike messenger, so they know a thing or two about carrying stuff. The original Atlas and the smaller Fourmi are available!

Honjo

Absolutely beautiful fenders handmade one by one in Tokyo. These come in a variety of shapes, profiles and sizes so reach out if you’re unsure about which ones will fit best!

Quad Lock

Having your phone on your handlebars is great for navigating and having it within close reach for snapping quick pics. Also great when you need to keep an eye on Facebook Marketplace for that perfect used crankset you’ve been looking for.

Buddy Flaps

Does your loved one already have fenders on their bike? Then help them keep their feet and whoever they’re riding in front of even cleaner with Gurp’s Buddy Flaps! These are made in Montreal and are available in a variety of colours.

Gurp Stitchwork framebag for Bassi Hog's Back

THE perfect addition to any tour-curious Hog's Back build! Framebags are an amazing way to carry heavy things (like water bladders, battery packs, etc.) or awkward things that don't maybe fit nicely in regular bike bags (tent poles, your favourite birdwatching field guide, etc.). Our good friend Gurp made these specifically for the Hog's Back, and they fit just right!

Dango Bros

Made by Magic Components in Japan, these cuties will make even the grumpiest bike grump smile! For cantilever or center-pull brakes only.

Darn Tough socks

Ever the shop favourite, Darn Tough socks are made in Vermont and come with an unconditional lifetime warranty. Who else does that? Darn Tough stand by their products, and so do we!
