Cycling in India: bike prices, warranties and what to check

Updated 4 November 2026

A new bicycle in India costs from about ₹4,349 for a basic single-speed model to around ₹26,999 for a branded mountain bike, and an electric cycle starts near ₹33,990, according to listings for November 2026. For current offers on the bike you want, describe it on BlaBlaPrice.

Warranty and the frame

Warranties differ by brand. One listed bicycle warranty covers the frame and rigid fork for 1 year and covers threading faults, but not dents, rust or fading. Another cycle seller offers lifetime replacement of the frame for the original owner and a 6-month warranty on suspension. Ask which part is covered, for how long, and whether the cover applies only to the original owner.

Tyres and the ISI mark

Under the latest Quality Control Order, the ISI mark is mandatory on tyres and tubes for cycles. Check the marking on the tyres and tubes when you buy, especially on a budget bike, where the tyres are often the first part to be replaced.

Season and wet roads

The climate is tropical: hot all year, with a wet season and a dry season instead of winter and summer. The dry months suit long rides better, and in the wet season mudguards and good tyre grip matter more. Choose an early start for rides in the heat of the day.

Sizes and units

Bicycles are sized by wheel diameter, often 22, 26 or 27.5 inches, and by frame size in inches. Electric cycles are listed with battery capacity in ampere-hours, such as 7.8 Ah. Give your height in centimetres as well as the wheel and frame size you want, so sellers can match the bike to you.

What to write in the request

Say what kind of riding you do, the bike type (city, mountain, road or electric), the frame and wheel size, the budget in rupees and the city where you want the bike delivered. If you need protection or accessories such as a helmet or lock, add them to the request.
