Be prepared at home: Bike tires should be inflated before every ride, especially if you ride less than once a week. The Avenir Handler Pro II Floor Pump is one great pump that can handle all your inflation needs. It's made of heavy-duty aluminum and features a wide, stable base. The top-mounted gauge is easy to read while the universal head fits Presta and Schrader valves with no conversion. The unique handle allows for easy one- or two-handed operation.

Be prepared on the road or trail: Carry a spare tube, patch kit, tools and cell phone on every ride in case of break-down. The Axiom Road Rider QR Seat Bag (34 cubic inches) and the bigger Axiom Telluride QR Seat Bag (45 cubic inches) are perfect to hold your safety essentials. They are made of tough and water-resistant rubber-coated 600-denier polyester, feature waterproof zippers, and include reflective piping for safety. The quick-release mounts make them a snap to move from one bike to another. Blackburn's slim Toolmanator 2 mini tool contains the necessities for road and trailside repairs. Its aluminum body holds 12 tools including: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8mm Allen wrenches, T25 and T30 Torx bits, a flat head screwdriver, 14 and 15 gauge spoke wrenches and a chain tool.

Patti The Buyer's Tip of the Day

Never inflate your bicycle tires at a gas station. The car-tire compressor delivers a large volume of air that can explode a bicycle tire in seconds. (And our mechanics replace a lot of burst tires each summer.) Click here for more essential tips and step-by-step instructions on proper bicycle tire inflation.
