Enhance Your Ride with Durable Mountain Bike Accessories

Mountain biking takes riders across uneven terrain, technical sections, changing weather conditions, and long distances. Each condition places different demands on the bike and its equipment. Practical accessories can support comfort, control, visibility, hydration, and trail-side repairs during these rides.

At Planet Bike, we believe thoughtful equipment choices can help riders stay prepared for different trail conditions. Our mountain bike accessories include tire repair essentials, full-finger gloves, lighting, handlebar grips, suspension tools, water bottle cages, and fenders. Each category addresses a specific need for riders exploring local trails, backcountry routes, and longer mountain biking adventures.

Reliable Solutions for Trail-Side Tire Repairs

A puncture can happen at any point during a mountain bike ride. A compact flat kit gives riders access to the equipment needed to restore tire pressure and continue the route.

CO2 Replacement Cartridges

Planet Bike's 16g, 20g, and 25g threaded CO2 replacement cartridges provide fast inflation after a puncture. Their compact, lightweight construction makes them easy to carry in a saddlebag, jersey pocket, or pack.

These cartridges work with both inner tube and tubeless tire systems. Their threaded design also provides compatibility with various inflator heads, making them suitable for different mountain bike setups.

The 25g threaded CO2 replacement cartridges provide additional inflation capacity. All cartridge sizes offer a practical solution for riders preparing for trail-side tire repairs.

Red Zeppelin CO2 Bike Tire Inflator

The Red Zeppelin CO2 bike tire inflator adds controlled inflation to a compact repair kit. Its lightweight design makes it convenient to carry on rides, while the precision control knob allows accurate adjustment during inflation.

The inflator head threads directly onto Presta and Schrader valves without an adapter. It accepts threaded cartridges and provides a practical option for quick roadside or trail-side repairs.

Full-Finger Gloves for Extended Trail Rides

Hands remain in constant contact with the handlebars, particularly during technical sections. Full-finger gloves can provide grip, comfort, and protection while supporting precise handlebar control.

Topo Trail Cyclist Gloves

The Topo Trail full-finger bicycling glove features breathable four-way stretch mesh across the back of the hand. The material creates a close, articulated fit while helping keep hands cool during warm rides.

Its slim Amara synthetic-leather palm provides durability and direct contact with the handlebar. A reinforced inner thumb adds support in an area that receives frequent contact during riding.

Touchscreen pads on the thumb, middle, and index fingers allow smartphone use without removing the gloves. The slip-on design maintains a lightweight profile, while the topographic motif gives the glove a distinctive appearance.

Pavo Full-Finger Cycling Gloves

The Pavo full-finger cycling glove is available in black and green. Both versions feature technical details suited to long summer rides and demanding trail sessions.

The design includes:

• Perforated four-way stretch mesh on the back of the hand
• Perforated synthetic palm for added ventilation
• Reinforced inner thumb for handlebar contact
• Touchscreen-compatible pads on three fingers
• Closure-less slip-on construction
• Close-fitting profile for extended rides

The breathable construction helps manage heat while the synthetic palm supports grip and control.

Lighting for Better Trail Visibility

Trail visibility can change with tree cover, cloudy conditions, and fading daylight. A powerful bike headlight can help illuminate the route while increasing visibility around other road and path users.

Dual Blaze® 1500 Headlight

The rechargeable Dual Blaze® 1500 headlight uses two high-output Nichia LEDs to produce a broad field of illumination. A 5000 mAh Samsung lithium battery powers the light and delivers up to 1500 lumens.

Its twin-beam design helps expand the field of vision across the trail, path, or road. Four settings allow selection of the appropriate power mode for different riding conditions.

The headlight also includes Planet Bike's Superflash strobe for daytime riding. This feature helps increase rider visibility, including around vehicles on the road.

For rides that begin before sunrise or extend into the evening, reliable lighting can improve trail visibility and overall riding conditions.

Comfortable and Secure Handlebar Grips

Handlebar contact becomes especially important during long rides over rough surfaces. Grips with suitable cushioning and texture can support comfort while helping maintain control.

Happy Hands Handlebar Grips – Duracork

The Duracork version of Planet Bike's Happy Hands Handlebar lock-on grips uses a natural cork-and-rubber composite construction.

The material provides a comfortable hand surface across a range of riding conditions. Its lock-on design keeps the grips securely attached to the handlebars.

Happy Hands Handlebar Grips – Diamond Joe

Diamond Joe grips feature a slim profile and non-slip rubber construction. Their tacky diamond-cut pattern provides a textured contact surface for the hands.

The pattern also helps absorb vibration, creating a balance between comfort and control during rides over uneven terrain.

Happy Hands Handlebar Grips – Grip E

Grip E grips feature an ergonomic design with a broad palm platform. This shape helps distribute pressure across the hand during longer rides.

Vibration-dampening gel adds cushioning, while micro-texture fingertip contact patches provide additional grip. The lock-on construction keeps the grips securely positioned.

Suspension Equipment for Accurate Adjustments

Suspension pressure influences how a mountain bike responds to different trail surfaces. Accurate adjustments can help maintain the intended performance of front forks and rear shocks.

Shockmate 3.0 Bike Suspension Pump

The Shockmate 3.0 high-pressure bicycle suspension pump is designed for accurate suspension maintenance. It can be used with front and rear suspension systems.

Its features include:

• Easy-to-read pressure gauge
• Bleeder valve for fine adjustments
• Eight-inch swivel hose
• Alloy valve head
• Compact, rugged construction

The swivel hose helps make valve access easier, while the gauge provides clear pressure readings. The bleeder valve allows small adjustments when fine-tuning suspension sag.

Hydration for Compact Frame Designs

Long mountain bike rides require convenient access to water. Frame geometry can affect bottle placement, particularly on smaller bikes and compact frames.

Sideload Water Bottle Cage

Planet Bike's Sideload water bottle cage is designed for compact frame geometries and smaller mountain bike frames.

Its side-entry design makes bottle access easier when traditional bottle-cage placement offers limited clearance. The aluminum construction securely holds the bottle while supporting convenient retrieval during rides.

Fender Protection for Wet and Muddy Trails

Rain and wet trail surfaces can create substantial spray from the wheels. Fenders provide practical protection against mud, water, and other debris that could reach the rider.

Grunge Rear Bike Fender

The Grunge Rear seatpost-mounted fender features an 85mm-wide profile designed to shield the rider from rear-wheel spray, mud, and crud.

Its design accommodates different wheel sizes, making it suitable for commuting as well as single-track riding. The seatpost-mounted format provides a practical solution for riders seeking rear-wheel protection.

Grunge Board Downtube Bike Fender

The Grunge Board provides minimalist protection against spray from the front wheel. Its downtube-mounted design adds coverage around the lower portion of the bike.

A two-point rubber strapping system secures the fender to the downtube. Its three-inch profile provides additional protection while maintaining a simple, lightweight design.

Building a Durable Trail Setup

A well-prepared mountain bike can make longer and more technical rides easier to manage. Tire repair equipment addresses punctures, while gloves enhance hand comfort and handlebar contact. Grips address vibration and control, and suspension equipment helps maintain accurate bike setup.

Lighting supports visibility in changing conditions. A side-entry bottle cage provides convenient access to hydration on compact frames. Fenders help reduce mud and spray during wet rides.
