exercise bikes for sale walmart image
Greg
I'm getting this road bike pretty soon and I wanna know what equipment is essential? I wanna cycle fire the fun, not racing, just for exercise and fun. I'm extremely low on funds and need to know what equipment is essential and where can I get such equipment really cheap? I don't care on quality a whole lot.
Answer
Floor pump with gauge. You need to pump before every ride or at least 2-3 times a week. Plus a frame mounted pump for the road.
Tool kit and spare tubes. I use patches at home when I have 5-6 tubes to patch, seldom in the road. No need to make everybody wait for you.
Front and rear lights, even if you don't ride at night, lights will help you be seen on fog and rain and when you return later than expected.
Helmet. This is the only thing is ok to buy from Walmart because all the helmets are made to the same regulations. Cheaper ones usually are heavier.
Water bottles. You need to drink one bottle per hour.
Padded shorts. Even if you start with only one set that you wash after each ride they are necessary for rides of more than 10 miles.
Padded gloves. Avoid hand and wrist pain.
Cheap place to buy is your Local Bike Shop. LBS have discontinued items that go on sale all the time.
Once you can do 12-15 mile rides, you will want to buy clip-lessn clipless pedals and shoes.
If you ride outdoors in the winter, you will need several layers of thermal and water prof clothing and winter shoes.

I would try shopping used. I have found used (just as good) ellipticals, exercise bikes, and treadmills for under a $100. www.craigslist.org and the classified ads are the best places, as well as garage sales. The only new equipment (cardio-wise) for $40 brand new would be an exercise bike.
