When the holidays roll around, you're not going to buy a tie or fluffy slippers for your friends who ride, now are you? You need gift ideas they'll appreciate and use. And maybe you're shopping for a little something for yourself, too. After all, you've been good this year, right?
Since we see all the gear here at Cycle Gear, we've given you a head start on your shopping by picking out a few ideas you might not have thought of. So let's dive right in.

Sedici Helmet Liner and Helmet Donut
Winter is the perfect time to refresh your riding gear for the coming spring, including that sweaty, worn-out liner in your helmet. The Sedici Strada 3 Mips Integra TX Helmet Liner ($39.95) replaces the stock liner in Sedici Strada 3 Mips and Strada 3 ECE helmets. The antimicrobial moisture-wicking mesh liner comes in sizes that match your helmet's size and is washable in cold water.
The Sedici Helmet Donut ($19.95) is a tasty tool to help make cleaning, servicing, or adding accessories like Bluetooth speakers easy. Made of a soft urethane material that won't scratch the paint, it holds the helmet upside down securely, prevents scuffing, and can be used to store and display helmets, too. One size fits most helmets.
Axial Balaclava, Socks, and Insoles
Why stop riding just because the temperature isn't ideal? Axial base layers handle both cold and hot days. The Axial Block Balaclava ($9.99) features a Freeze-Out windproof membrane, lightweight breathable stretch panels, and anti-bacterial properties to help fight odor.

If vibration is your problem, Axial RidePro Insoles ($9.99 per pair) could be the answer. They're made of a specialized foam that adapts to different pressure levels for a dynamic response to the stresses of riding, and distribute pressure along the foot for better comfort and reduced fatigue. Their cut-to-fit design works with most riding boots and shoes.
Sweaty feet take the fun out of summer riding and give your boots that heady leave-the-room aroma. Axial Base Coolmax Socks ($11.99) keep your feet dry with moisture-wicking Coolmax zones that move sweat away from your foot for evaporation and cooling. The knee-high socks also feature high-density cushioning at the heel and shin to reduce vibration.

Axial AX2 Air Back Protector and Air Elbow/Knee Armor
Designed for use in mesh jackets, the Axial AX2 Back Protector ($59.95) has a geometric lattice to maximize airflow in hot weather. The CE Level 2-certified pad comes in Small, Medium, and Large, and fits many Bilt, Sedici, Street & Steel, and REAX jackets. The same technology and airflow increase are built into Axial AX2 Elbow/Knee Armor ($29.99 per pair), which fits most modern Bilt, Sedici, REAX, and Street & Steel jackets and pants so you can stay both cool and protected.

Bilt Factory Pro Pack and Track Pack Bolt Kits
How do you stop a 180 mph sport bike dead in its tracks? Sometimes it's as simple as losing a 6 mm bolt or nut. We're all prone to misplacing hardware now and then, which is why the Bilt Factory Pro Pack 210-Piece Bolt Kit ($49.99) is a must have. It's a comprehensive collection of 8.8-grade fasteners and select specialty hardware common to virtually all brands of bikes. The kit comes in a durable plastic box for easy storage.
Race bikes don't need as much hardware as street bikes, and for them there's the Bilt Factory Track Pack 60-Piece Bolt Kit ($19.99). It's filled with 8.8-grade fasteners and comes in a plastic box for easy storage and quick location when your race is rolling to the grid.

Stockton Tire Pump
Powered by a lithium battery, the Stockton Tire Pump ($49.99) has a built-in LED light and can also be used as a phone charger. The readout displays in PSI, BAR, kPa, or KG/CM, and the auto-shutoff features prevents accidental running to save power. It works with motorcycles, cars, bicycles, and sports balls, and comes in a durable ABS case. Keep it handy and you'll never feel deflated.
Stockton Wheel Truing Stand
Whether you're building or just maintaining your spoked wheels, the Stockton Wheel Truing Stand ($99.99) is a must-have tool. Perfect for truing and balancing wheels, it can handle axles from 0.5 inches to 1.5 inches (13 mm to 38 mm). Its fully shielded, low-friction radial bearings rotate the wheel smoothly for precise balancing, and the side supports detach from the base for easy storage.

Stockton T-Handle Pro Hex Key Set
Now that hex-head hardware is everywhere, the Stockton T-Handle Pro Hex Key Set ($49.99) deserves a place in your toolbox. It includes 10 mm, 8 mm, 6 mm, 5 mm, 4 mm, 3 mm, 2.5 mm, and 2 mm sizes, and each T-handle has a metal sleeve for effortless use and a sliding top key for easy torque adjustment. A metal stand is included to keep each wrench indexed and in easy reach when needed.

Stockton Shock Pump With Digital Gauge
Small suspension adjustments make a big difference to handling and ride quality. Those adjustments require precise tools, like the Stockton Shock Pump With Digital Gauge ($59.99). The battery-powered LED readout lets you keep accurate record of pressures so you can quickly and easily adjust the suspension for varying conditions, and the hand-operated plunger prevents accidental over pressurizing that can blow out seals.

Stockton Roller Seat With Tool Box
Kneeling on a cold garage floor while you work on your bike is hard on the knees and back. Make your maintenance chores easier and more comfortable with a Stockton Roller Seat With Tool Box ($79.99). Heavy-duty steel construction and a padded seat with a durable vinyl cover let you scoot around the garage with ease on robust casters. Two side-mounted recessed trays and a sliding drawer are perfect for carrying tools and parts around with you.

Molecule Helmet Care Kit and Matte Helmet Care Kit 4-Packs
Helmets are a major investment that deserve as much care as your motorcycle. The Molecule Helmet Care Kit 4-Pack ($23.96) comes with one bottle each of Cleaner Polish, Helmet Refresh, Anti-Fog, and Visor Cleaner. Matte-finish helmets require a special care routine, so the Molecule Matte Helmet Care Kit 4-Pack includes Matte Detailer, Helmet Refresh, Anti-Fog, and Visor Cleaner Rain Repel. Both kits clean and polish helmets and remove dirt, oil, and bugs.

Stockton X Adams Products
Gas and oil aren’t the only chemicals you need to keep your motorcycle going. Washes, cleaners, protectors, and polishes from Stockton X Adams make cleaning, detailing, and maintaining your bike a breeze. Stockton X Adams Leather Conditioner ($13.99) works great on riding gear, too, and Enzymatic Helmet Interior Cleaner freshens up that sweaty lid. The Stockton X Adams line also features a Pressure Washer ($419.99), a 3.5-Gallon Bucket With Grit Guard ($29.99), and a Handheld Mini Heated Air Cannon ($134.99) for the ultimate in motorcycle care.
