The thought of a bike-friendly Metro Manila isn’t new to many of us. It’s key to having a healthier and more sustainable lifestyle, and we wouldn’t have to rely on mass transports all the time. New normal measures also tell us that biking will be the archetypal way to get around the region even after the pandemic. That being said, it’s no wonder more people have started turning to bike shops in Manila to buy two-wheelers of their own.
But as the subject of where to buy bikes in Metro Manila is not an easy road, we’ve narrowed down your options to the best bike shops in Manila below.
