Introduction to Arm/Leg Warmers

Take a look at pictures of pro road and mountain bikers training or racing in the spring or autumn and you’ll notice many of them with curious black extensions to their shorts and short sleeve jerseys - these are known by pro’s as ‘warmers’ - as the name suggests worn for added warmth when conditions are chilly. Arm and leg warmers are just tubes of Lycra fabric for full arms, full legs or just knees, they can be slipped easily on or off as the temperature/pace dictates. They allow you to make the very most use of your summer riding gear even on days when there’s a chill in the air. Being small items they can be easily stashed in jersey pockets or in saddle packs or bags. Most are very simple Lycra tubes with tacky rubberised grippers on the upper thigh to keep them from slipping. More expensive versions can be windproof or feature ergonomic cuts of to make them fit the shape of riders bodies more accurately.
