As the summer sun lit up streets and mountain passes alike, July 2025 delivered a powerful mix of victories, innovation, and calls for smarter cycling infrastructure. Here’s a quick cycling news roundup of the most important stories on two wheels.
Tour de France 2025: a new champion rises
Tadej Pogačar proved once again why he is a generational talent by clinching his fourth Tour de France title. With his signature mix of calm precision and explosive climbing, Pogačar dominated key stages in the Alps and amassed great times on all stages to seal his victory.
The women’s race has just begun and so far Marianne Vos won Stage 1, Mavi García shocked with a solo Stage 2 win, Lorena Wiebes took back-to-back sprint victories after a crash-filled Stage, and Kimberley Le Court won Stage 5 after an impressive ride. The Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift continues until August 3rd.
Circular economy gains momentum in cycling
From gear manufacturers to local bike shops, the industry is stepping up to reduce waste. More brands are adopting repairable components, modular designs, and recycling programs for old bikes and accessories. Urban riders are also driving the trend, demanding gear that is as sustainable as it is stylish.
Ciclolux is proud to contribute by designing durable, rechargeable bike lights built to last, not landfill.
Cities reimagine cycling infrastructure
Berlin, Toronto, and São Paulo continue major expansions to their protected bike lane networks. New pilot programs include bike-priority intersections, smart traffic signals, and nighttime safety zones with improved lighting.
In the U.S., New York City launched a campaign to raise driver awareness of e-bike speed and safety, after a 15% rise in e-bike-related incidents at intersections. They are also taking a look into regulating e-bikes.
E-Bike adoption surges again
Global e-bike sales surged again in July, driven by rising fuel prices, government incentives, and increased demand for micro-mobility options in urban areas. Experts now predict 200 million e-bikes on the road by 2030.
DIY repair culture thrives
From London to Los Angeles, bike repair stations and mobile mechanics are popping up in parks, plazas, and festivals. Riders are embracing repair over replacement, with YouTube tutorials and local workshops making it easier than ever to extend the life of your gear.
Riding into August
From the Alps to the alleyways, July reminded us that cycling is more than a sport, it is a movement. One powered by passion, innovation, and a collective push toward cleaner, smarter, and safer streets.
