When talking about their hobby to the uninitiated, it can sometimes feel like cyclists are speaking a different language. It's no wonder that mountain bikers, gravel riders, and roadies can be notoriously hard to buy Christmas gifts for, and it's especially hard if you're on the hunt for presents for someone who seemingly already has everything they need. 

But that's not to say you should just resign all hope and buy them yet another gift voucher for the local bike shop or resort straight to novelty when sourcing the best Christmas gift for the cyclist in your life.

If you're struggling for inspiration on what to buy or confidence in your choices, the list below has seven great ideas that are perfect for all cyclists.
