Cycling Clothing Designed for Women

Birds on Bikes began because founder Barbara Spooner couldn’t find cycling clothing that made her feel comfortable and stylish.

As a size 14, most cycling gear left her feeling squeezed, self-conscious and very much like she had been “squished in like a sausage.”

So she decided to create something better.

Today, Birds on Bikes designs women-specific cycling clothing for recreational riders, touring cyclists, rail-trail adventurers, e-bike riders and women who simply want to feel good while they ride.

Comfort Changes Everything

When your cycling clothing fits properly, you can stop thinking about what you’re wearing and start enjoying where your bike is taking you.

Birds on Bikes padded cycling pants are designed with thoughtful features including:

  • Supportive high-rise waistbands
  • Women-specific padding
  • Seamless inside legs to help reduce rubbing
  • Generous pockets for your phone and essentials
  • Comfortable, stay-in-place leg bands
  • Inclusive sizing designed to cater to curves

Made for Real Women and Real Rides

You don’t need to be fast, fearless or dressed like a professional cyclist to belong on a bike.

Birds on Bikes is made for women who ride for freedom, friendship, fitness, travel and fun.

Whether you’re heading out on a relaxed weekend ride, exploring a rail trail or preparing for a cycling holiday, your clothing should help you feel comfortable, confident and completely yourself.

Meet Barbara

Birds on Bikes was founded by Brisbane designer Barbara Spooner after she struggled to find cycling clothing that felt comfortable, flattering and stylish.

As a size 14 and a new cyclist, Barbara saw a gap for women-specific gear designed for real bodies. What began with the thought, “How hard can this be?” grew into a brand focused on helping women feel confident and comfortable on every ride.
