Gravel Bike Accessories

With the right gravel accessories, you can take your gravel experience to the next level. Bag, tool or jersey - what matters?

Which gravel accessories are best?

Gravel bikes combine the best features of a mountain bike and a road bike, giving them added versatility and flexibility. It’s worth keeping this in mind as you choose your gravel accessories.

For a conventional all-road setup on your gravel bike, you can take inspiration from road accessories. For extensive day trips with long off-road sections, we recommend fenders, MTB pedals, handlebar bags, lights for shaded sections, and grippy gravel tires. If multi-day bikepacking adventures through varied terrain are your thing, add on a high-quality GPS system, spacious bike bags, bottles and bottle cages, and comfortable, weatherproof clothing for gravel riding.

What gravel clothing is right for me?

Setting record breaking power numbers isn’t so much of a priority when gravel riding. Instead, the focus is on comfort, adventure and fun.

We also recommend a bike helmet for your safety. For gravel riding, this means a road-style helme.

Depending on the season, you won't want to leave the house without weatherproof cycling jacket. If the frame of your bike has bag attachment options or separate compartments, a long-sleeved gravel bike jersey without back pockets is sufficient. Our various cycling caps, neck buffs, caps, and base layers are useful in shoulder seasons and winter. In terms of bib shorts, you have the choice between lycra road cycling shorts, comfortable all-terrain gravel shorts, and comfortable cargo shorts with pockets. For cycling shoes, we recommend MTB or gravel shoes with a recessed cleat. This shoe/cleat combination is great for walking around during café stops, for hike-a-bike sections and for easily clearing mud from your shoes.

What components and accessories are useful for a gravel bike?

Grippy gravel bike tires are essential gravel accessories for your bike. The advantage is that they offer high puncture protection and low rolling resistance. If you set them up tubeless, you can run them at lower pressures to reduce the likelihood of pinch flats.

You cannot avoid additional accessories such as bottle holders, bike bags, lighting, fenders, and bicycle tools. Regarding bicycle maintenance, a puncture and cleaning kit are also basic for off-road rides. Lightweight gravel wheels for low overall weight and non-slip handlebar tape for better grip complete your bike setup.
