Bicycles in the UAE: what they cost and how to order one

Updated 31 October 2026

A bicycle in the UAE costs from about AED 400 for a child's bike to about AED 54,000 for a carbon road bike, while many city and mountain bikes sit between AED 500 and AED 3,000. For current prices and sellers near you, describe the bike you want in a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Rules for riding and electric bikes

Dubai has regulations on the use of cycles in the emirate, including technical requirements that cyclists must meet, and the UAE has revised its rules for regular and electric bicycles to set high standards of safety in use and rental. Electric bikes must stay within defined maximum speed limits, and their motor power must comply with the law, so check the speed and motor figures on any electric model before you buy.

Warranty to check before you pay

Many bicycle brands limit their warranty to bikes sold in the UAE or bought from an approved dealer, so ask the seller to confirm this before you pay. Frame warranties can also depend on normal use and regular servicing as set out in the owner's manual. Ask whether an electric bike's warranty covers the battery and charger as well as the frame.

Season and riding weather

Summers from May to September are very hot, so the mild months from November to March are the comfortable time to ride outdoors. Ordering in October gives time for delivery and setting up before the cooler season starts in November.

What to write in your request

Name the type (city, mountain, road, folding, electric or children's), the wheel size in inches as listings show it, and the frame size in centimetres. Add the rider's height, whether the bike should be new or used, your budget in AED and your city. If you also need a helmet or lock, add it to the same request.

BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the bike in your own words and add a photo if you have one. The AI asks for missing details such as frame size, then looks through sellers' websites and price lists in the UAE and shows the prices and businesses it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own price, terms and delivery, and your contact details stay hidden until you choose to share them. Related: Cycling, Electric bikes.
