We found a great bike shop to purchase the gear that we needed. Frankfurt is a great place for cyclists - even the CBD has cycle lanes and plenty of places to lock your bike up. There is a cool Call-a-bike service where there are bikes all round the city - you ring a number and get supplied a code to unlock the bike - then you use it and once finished, just lock it up wherever you like for the next person who comes along.
