Kids bike apparel
Does anyone know a place either in Sydney CBD or online that stocks kids bike clothes / accessories e.g. gloves etc. My nephew (5 years old) is getting into off road riding on his BMX mainly on pump tracks and would like to grab him something for his birthday.
Tried a bike shop in the city yesterday and they were pretty useless.

Torpedo7 stocks kids biking gear. Eg shorts:
http://www.torpedo7.com.au/products/DCSHKN1SL/ti...
They have jersey's listed but not many sizing options.
Try Wiggle & CRC too. Eg:

HTH
Cheers for those links Rob - I had tried Wiggle but obviously my search capabilities failed me. Those DSend shorts from Torpedo7 look a winner.
I bought my son's gear via gearfactor. I tried more than 10 shops in Sydney before, only Blackman bike in parramatta or Ku ring gai cycle have limited stocks.
I get my boys gloves from most bike shops his first knicks he wears under normal shorts were from Anaconda , but now he has grown as he is the height of a 10 yr old at 7 some jerseys on flea bay but now all new stuff comes online from the usual overseas sites we allove to shop at ...l
I finally found some fingerless roadie style gloves at Cell Bikes Stanmore have some womens sizes that manage and managed to fit my 7yo (he then promptly lost one....ahhh!. Other than that I only found the internet worked for extra small gloves. Personally I love Ground Effect (http://www.groundeffect.co.nz/products/KID/)stuff and they have a reasonably priced kids jersey.
Thx for all suggestions guys, appreciate the feedback. After looking at all the offerings from the usual outlets I have bought the little fella a redline racing jersey from TBSM who responded to my email and within 30 mins had put the item up on their website for me to order (wasn't listed before though they are a redline dealer).That's great service.
Off to Port Macquarie tomorrow for a week with the family. Taking the bike and so I can see a side trip to Kiwarrak in my very near future - but that's for another thread
Kiwarrak is well worth it but get a map or follow the chocolate foot signs if you can its about 11kms all up from carpark I'd say or park down near the start if you know where to go .
Cheers smiley - haven't been there before so I've brought a trail map with me. Will follow the std signed lap first up and then probably get lost for an hour or two. Got here yesterday and good to see so many ppl riding bikes around. Riding starts tomorrow morning
When your car is parked turn around behind you there's a track just there or go to the right of the entry and ride down the fireroad and start down there its a awesome place to explore ...
