Mostly worst

Here’s our round-up of the best and worst – mostly worst – Star Wars themed bike stuff.

Another Christmas, another Star Wars film hits the cinemas. This year’s movie is called Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. What’s it about? We don’t really. There’s no ewoks in it. And George Lucas has been kept away from its creation. So it might actually be watchable.

Whatever. If you’re a Star Wars fan you’ve already scrolled past this bit and are checking out the delightful items below…

Ride Bikes T-shirt

This is by far the best Star Wars T-shirt we’ve come across. It’s a galaxy far, far ahead of the competition that’s for sure. This design is also available as a hoodie.

Can be yours for £7.00

Star Wars 3D BB-8 kids helmet

BB-8 was the cute little rolling droid in the Star Wars flick that came out last year. This is a kids helmet but with a 54cm max size it might just fit some adults too.

Can be yours for £15.00

Star Wars Speeder Bike Technical Scale Art Print

Fully Shaded Technical Illustration of the Kenner 1983 Speeder Bike. The speeder bikes in The Return of the Jedi film is arguably a big reason why we ride mountain bikes in the first place; forever trying to emulate being on a speeder bike!

Can be yours for £15.00

Bell Super 2R MIPS Star Wars edition helmets

Star Wars helmets for “grown ups” (we use the term loosely). Boba Fett and Stormtrooper designs wrapped around a really rather fine Bell full face helmet. If you’re after a full facer, you could do a lot worse.

Can be yours for £151.99

x2000x2000-fit-r2d2-top

R2-D2 skate helmet

“Boo-beep twiddly-diddly squark!” Another Star Wars helmet for adults. technically this helmet is listed for skateboarding so we’re not really sure if it’s properly certified for mountain biking. So just take up skateboarding as well. Sorted.

Can be yours for £24.95

Star Wars The Force Awakens kids knee/elbow pads

Not for grown ups unfortunately. And we don’t have massive faith they’d be much cop on a kid either but hey, at least they’ll keep your sprog a bit warmer (as they ragdoll down the hillside).

Can be yours for £6.95

Star Wars compression shirts

Ultra-tight, second skin fit compression tops for wearing as a base layer. 140g Polyester/Elastane.

Star Wars cycling jerseys

Can be yours for £199.99
