Cycling related birthday present

supermurph09

Hi

It’s my 40th birthday in May, the mrs has gone halves with me on some new wheels which have just arrived. She also wants to buy me something that would be more of a keepsake so naturally I thought something cycling related would be nice. The remaining birthday budget is £150 but I am stumped for ideas so thought I’d ask on here. All suggestions welcome, let’s have them.

If it helps, I like hill climbs and time trials.

Cheers

Depending on what bike you have, I'd go for a chris king headset.

or a nice framed picture.

Not sure if this link works, but for a fathers day present last year I received the below. I have Ultegra on one of my bikes, but there are other options available. This saves you £90 for something else...

The picture idea is a good one, just not sure what! I have a Canyon Ultimate CF SL 9.0.

Cufflinks would have been great (I have ultegra too) but I now work for an apparel company and don't wear formal shirts.

A company called 'kapz' do personalised headset top caps. You can design your own with a combination of writing/design or use one of their designs. They're not very expensive, prices start from around £20 I think and go up a bit depending on what design / finish you want, but they look very smart and are a nice way of personalising your bike.

How about a full set of 'The Monuments' prints from The Handmade Cyclist:

I've got Lombardia in my bike room and it looks fantastic framed. A really top class print on quality stock paper.

Good suggestions, thanks.
