Bicycle shops in Singapore
Getting your own bicycle will reduce your travel time, save you money for more BBT, and help you burn off those boba calories as you try to achieve your #fitspo goals once again.
You also won’t have to worry about your bicycle exploding or getting banned from footpaths and roads, unlike e-scooters. What’s more, we’re allowed to bring foldable bikes onto public transport as long as they are within a 120cm x 70cm x 40cm size limit.
Here are a few bicycle shops in Singapore where you can get a trusty ride and officially join the cycling community. If you’re new to cycling, you can also consider checking out our bicycle-buying guide first.
