Gift ideas: the right bike for everyone

Who should be smiling on Christmas Eve? Here are our recommendations — in store we are happy to show you suitable bikes.

01

For kids

A kids’ bike from 12 to 26 inches — the gift children never forget. Buying used is especially good value because they outgrow bikes quickly.

Small gifts: bike accessories under the tree

Not every gift has to be a whole bike. Accessories make cyclists especially happy in winter:

  • Bike helmet — safety people actually like to wear
  • A good bike lock — protects the bike in town
  • Bright bike lights — especially important in the dark season
  • Panniers and baskets for shopping and work
  • Bell, mirror and other accessories for young and old

How to pull off the surprise

A bike has to fit — even if the recipient mustn’t suspect a thing. Our tips:

  • Find out height and inside-leg length discreetly — for example from trousers that fit well.
  • For kids, plan for growth: adjustable saddle and handlebars extend the bike’s life.
  • Bring the measurements — we will advise you on the right frame size.
  • Ask whether we can set your chosen bike aside until Christmas.
  • Come early: the most popular sizes sell out quickly before Christmas.

New Year’s resolution: cycle more

More exercise, less driving, fresh air — a bike is the easiest resolution for 2027. Around Lünen you will find flat, well-built cycle paths such as the Römer-Lippe-Route, the Seseke-Weg and the Datteln-Hamm-Kanal-Radweg.

FAQ: a bike as a gift

Message us on WhatsApp
Is a bike a good Christmas present?

Yes — a bike gives exercise, freedom and joy for many years. Kids’ bikes and e-bikes are among the most popular Christmas gifts.

What bike size does my child need?

It depends on height and inside-leg length, not just age. As a rough guide: 12–16 inches for toddlers, 20 inches from about age 6, 24–26 inches for school children. We are happy to advise you in person.

How do I find the frame size without giving it away?

Discreetly measure the inside leg on well-fitting trousers or ask about their height. With these measurements we will find the right frame size together.

Can I reserve a bike until Christmas?

Just ask us — in many cases we can set your chosen bike aside until Christmas.

Are there affordable bikes as gifts?

Yes. Inspected used bikes start at approx. €80 with a 3-month warranty. Accessories such as a helmet, lock or lights also make great small gifts.

Are you open between Christmas and New Year?

Yes, on all working days during our normal hours. Closed on 25 and 26 December and on New Year’s Day.

What warranty does a gifted bike have?

New bikes have a 24-month warranty; used bikes 3 months on chain, gears, derailleur, dynamo, pedals and hydraulic brakes.

Merry Christmas & a happy New Year!
