- Racing gear: for the competitive cyclist who is looking to maximize performance;
- Off-road gear: for the cyclist who enjoys riding on trails and rough terrain;
- Commuting gear: for the cyclist who uses their bike as a means of transportation, mainly in cities;
- Touring gear: for the cyclist who wants to go on a bicycle trip;
