When it comes to finding a great Father’s Day gift every year, things can start to feel a little... expected. This year, give Dad something unexpected—something that gets him outside, moving, and smiling: a new bike or cycling gear from Hickory & Tweed.

As your go-to bike shop in Westchester, Hickory & Tweed is here to help you pick out something truly memorable this Father’s Day. Whether Dad is a weekend trailblazer, a tech-lover, or someone just rediscovering the joy of riding, we have the road bikes, e-bikes, gear, and accessories to make his day.

Here’s our guide to Father’s Day gifts that are guaranteed to get Dad rolling in style.


1. For the Tech-Savvy Dad: Go Electric

If your dad loves gadgets, innovation, or just wants a little extra boost on his rides, an e-bike is a nice upgrade. E-bikes are one of the fastest-growing categories in cycling for a reason. With electric pedal assist, Dad can tackle hills, ride longer distances, and keep up with younger riders without breaking a sweat.

We carry a carefully selected lineup ofpremium e-bikes that combine comfort, performance, and smart design. From sleek commuter styles to road-ready fitness models, there’s an option for all kinds of rider.

Stop by the shop to test ride our current models and talk to our team of bike experts—we’ll help you find the perfect fit for Dad’s lifestyle and riding goals.


2. For the Road Warrior: Upgrade His Ride

If your dad already rides regularly, chances are he’s been eyeing an upgrade. A new road bike can take his performance to the next level—or just bring back that feeling of pure joy you get from a top-quality machine.

We stock road and gravel bikes designed for comfort and speed, from top brands like Specialized and Cannondale that know what serious riders need. Our staff can help you find a model that fits his riding style, body type, and experience level. It’s not just about giving him a new bike—it’s about giving him a better ride, every time he hits the road.




3. For the Off-Road Adventurer: Mountain Bikes Built for the Trail

If Dad lives for dirt paths, singletrack, and forest trails, a mountain bike is the ultimate Father’s Day surprise. Whether he’s new to trail riding or ready to upgrade his setup, our collection of full-suspension and hardtail bikes will have something dialed in for his needs.

We offer expert fittings and guidance to make sure every component—from tire tread to suspension travel—is optimized for the kind of terrain he rides most. Give Dad the freedom to explore more trails, go further, and have more fun this summer.


4. Not Sure About a Bike? Go for Gear

You don’t need to spring for a full bike to give a great cycling-related gift. We have an incredible selection ofcycling gear and accessories that make thoughtful (and practical) Father’s Day gifts:

Top Accessory Ideas from Our Shop:
