These top five are not just for the bike but for the owner too when out and about riding. Get those bike pedals ready because here they come.
5.
Energy bar or energy gel.
These are great for before and after events as the put all the carbohydrates your body has lost or is about to lose straight back in making you feel a lot better. There is even a gel that can help build muscles up taking around seven days to work. Of course the gel can also be used on the move.
4. Of course it had to be in the top five, the bike helmet
No professional cyclist can go anywhere without one of these. Only really in the top five simply because it is simply vital to own one.Of course it cannot be forgotten just how many different helmets there are with some even made for hot or cold weather.
3.The mini bicycle computer
Having this is what really makes you a proffessonal cyclist in my opinion. These are so easily attached to the bike and can really help out during a training session.

2. Wheels
At number two simply because I love to change the wheels on my bike. There are thousands of designs to use ranging from the plain wheels that come with every bike or various other ones like zipp wheels.
1. At number one is the most important thing you need on a long riding trip. There is a reason why I haven't kept mentioning whats at number one and that is simply because it is a boring one.
Water bottle is at number one purely because out of all the things you do not want to be dehydrated when out riding.
Well there you have it, the top five things to take with you and use when using a racing bike.
