As someone who only picked up cycling recently, seeing Singapore on a bike has felt like exploring a whole new world, especially after taking on several long-distance cycling trails, including the extensive coast-to-coast cycling trail.
If you don’t have a bike or don’t fancy hauling yours all the way from home to further cycling destinations, bike rental shops offer an easy and affordable way to cruise through Singapore. Here’s an all-in guide to everything you need to know about bike rental in Singapore, sorted by parks with price comparisons included.

With an 11km-long stretch of coastal PCNs to cycle along, East Coast Park is one of the most popular places to cycle in Singapore with pit stops like Coastal Playgrove, Bedok Jetty, and several water sports facilities. It’s no surprise that they have plenty of bicycle rental shops with a wide variety of bikes and skates to choose from.

GoCycling is a name you’ll see a lot in this article – they’re the largest bicycle rental chain with 10 outlets islandwide, including 2 in ECP.
For those interested in embarking on a long-distance cycling route through several of the following nature parks, it’s one of the best options available as you can return your bikes at any of their outlets islandwide, except self-serviced outlets.
Just be sure to let the shop know beforehand and prepare a $50 cash deposit, which will be returned once you return the bicycle.

Great for those coming from Marine Parade, Coastline Leisure – AKA Bike Stop – has 2 shops – 1 at either end of ECP – both with single, tandem, and quad family bicycle and skate rentals. Prices for adults start at $12 for the 1st hour, and $4 for subsequent hours. Selected bikes will set you back $16 for 3 hours. For kid bikes, they start at $9/hour.
Residents of Punggol HDBs sure are lucky, as they get to experience lush greenery right at their doorstep. Punggol has plenty of green spaces from the quaint rivers of Punggol Waterway Park to the panoramic waterfronts of Coney Island. Try to find Coney Island’s secret beach while you’re there!
The bike rental shops are pretty spaced out, so it depends on where you plan to start your journey. Jomando Adventure and Recreation and GoCycling @ Punggol Jetty are the 2 closest bike rentals to Coney Island.
Punggol Waterway & Lorong Halus Bridge.
But with the extensive North Eastern Riverine Loop PCN that snakes through the area, you can consider starting your journey from Bike Stop @ Waterway – near SAFRA Punggol – or Cycling @ Punggol – near Sengkang Riverside Park – before making your way through the area’s many attractions. Both cost $8/hour, but Cycling @ Punggol has a daily rate of $25/day.
There’s also Wheelers, which is next to Northshore Plaza, and a stone’s throw from the Punggol PCN for waterfront views. Rates start at $10/hour.
There’s no place in Singapore that exudes rustic charm quite like Changi does. With quiet stretches of beaches, shophouses from the ‘70s and of course, Changi Village Hawker Centre, the area is a cycling destination worth travelling to this ulu corner of Singapore for.

The only bike rental service here is GoCycling with 3 outlets – 2 near Changi Village and one at Changi Airport Terminal 2. The latter is near Hub & Spoke Cafe, where there’s a clean toilet to shower and wash away the sweat and grime from your journey.
P.S. You can get 2 hours of cycling free if you download the Changi Airport app. You’ll be able to find the free ride under the Explore Changi.

Pass by Changi Jurassic Mile, Changi Boardwalk, Changi Point Ferry Terminal, and the spooky Old Changi Hospital – if you dare.
Note: GoCycling @ Changi Beach Park C7 is a self-service facility. Call the contact provided at the outlet to rent a bike.
One of the newest parks we have to explore is Jurong Lake Garden, flanking one end of the extensive 36km Coast-to-Coast Trail. Rent a bike from GoCycling to explore the garden’s dreamy lalang fields, IG-worthy Lone Tree, and treehouse-themed playground.
Those with energy to spare can follow the PCN Coast-to-Coast Trail all the way to Coney Island, with another GoCycling outlet where you can return your bike.
Pulau Ubin’s bike rental stores are clustered around the jetty area so they’re impossible to miss – you’ll spot them the moment you leave the pier.
The main bike rental outlet here is No. 25 Bicycle Rental, with rates much cheaper than the mainland, from $15.50/day. However, the cheapest options often aren’t in tip-top condition, and if you’re cycling around the island’s bumpy and hilly roads for the first time, you might want to invest in the store’s sturdier bikes, typically priced from $20/day.
Ketam Quarry – a quaint spot for a picnic.
The uncles renting out the bikes are not pushy with sales and from what we experienced, are more than happy to help you pick out a bike for your island cycling expedition. Those conquering the island’s Ketam Mountain Bike Park, a mountain bike trail for intermediate and advanced riders, can also rent mountain bikes here from $25/day.
Make a bike reservation with No. 25 Bicycle Rental.
Cycling at Pasir Ris Park is almost a staple for every class chalet held there. Take a ride down memory lane by renting a GoCycling bike to explore the park’s horse stables, hedge maze, and the supposedly haunted bird-watching tower. Cycling here takes you along the waterfront, and Downtown East lies nearby for easy access to BBT and lunch.

From here, it’s also easy to head to both Changi and Punggol via the PCN.
Note: GoCycling @ Pasir Ris Park is a self-service facility.
*Free 2nd hour on weekdays, free 3rd hour on weekends.
GoCycling also has an outlet at West Coast Park, the lesser-known cousin of East Coast Park. The park has underrated scenic cycling trails near the sea, promenade lookout jetties, and archery ranges. A ride from WCP’s tip to tail takes only a short 10-20 minutes without stopping, but you can easily follow a PCN trail to Jurong Lake Gardens for an extended bike adventure.
The CBD offers urban views of the city for a change, and can be a great starting point if you’re going beyond the waterfront loop around Marina Bay (~5km). While many choose to jog or bring their own bikes, you can cruise through the area fuss-free with these 3 bike rental stores:
Read our guide to cycling trails in the city.
There are 2 outlets for City Scoot in the CBD, one at the Esplanade and at High Street Centre. Picking up your bike at the Esplanade is more convenient but you’ll be paying $15 for the 1st hour, $5 for subsequent half-hours, capped at $40 for the whole day.
Rates are cheaper at the latter location, where it’s $10 for the 1st hour and $5 for every subsequent hour, capped at $25 for the whole day.
Also located at High Street Centre, Bicycle Hut offers a range of bicycles for rent at affordable prices. Rates for a basic city bike starts at $12 for 2 hours or $25/day.
GoCycling @ Marina Bay opened their outlet at the Singapore Flyer in mid-2021. Snag rates as low as $4/hour during the weekdays, as 2nd hours are F.O.C.
Bike rental shops aside, you’ll definitely have spotted pay-per-use bikes scattered around Singapore. It all started with the OGs of OFO and oBike years ago. While those brands have come and gone, other bike sharing services are still around in Singapore:
Anywheel is arguably the more well-known of the 2 remaining bike sharing companies here. Rates start at $1/30 mins, whereas their unlimited ride passes (each ride not exceeding 30 mins) are priced from $6.90 for a 7-day pass.
Shanghai-based HelloRide has similar pricing, with rental starting at $1/30mins as well. Their unlimited ride passes also have a cap of 30 mins per ride, with the 7-day pass costing $5.90.

These apps are great, especially for beginner cyclists, as you can rent them any time of the day, and easily pick them up and drop them off almost anywhere around the island. If you’ve cycled to the other end of SG or are too shag to cycle back to your starting point, wrapping up your journey is as easy as locking your bike at one of the many designated bike rental parking spots islandwide.
While great for weekdays, these bikes are notoriously hard to find during the weekends as people snatch them up like hotcakes – especially near MRTs and in popular parks. Try starting your journey early to avoid fighting with everyone else for the bikes.
Cycling is fast becoming a hobby for many of us, offering an alternative experience with the outdoors besides going on a hike. Try these bike rental options the next time you head out on a cycling adventure!
