Our Bikes

Our bikes are universally maintained and in top shape for every one of our customers. In addition, we choose our rental bikes based on quality and durability.
Instead of having a broken down bike on the side of the sidewalk, you can be assured that your bike will ride well during your entire rental period.
You’ll find a bit more information about our rental bikes below. As always, feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions about our bikes, service, or pricing.
Advantages Of Our Bikes
Beach Cruisers
Like most places in Tulum, we rent beach cruisers. Beach cruisers are the simplest and easiest bikes to operate. in addition, they are specifically made for cruising around beach resort areas. Consequently, you are going to have no problem adapting to riding one. If you’ve ever ridden a bike in your life, you will be able to ride a beach cruiser. They are built to accommodate your trips to and from the beach—which will hopefully happen often during your trip here.
Well Maintained
We take pride in the quality of our bicycles. Moreover, we try to maintain a fleet of brand new bikes. We believe this reflects on our commitment to service. Our rental bikes are new, well-maintained, and very reliable. Unfortunately, our competitors cannot say the same.This means that there is less of a chance of breakdown on the side of the road. You will not find a fleet of better Tulum rental bikes in the area.
Single Speed
Our bikes are all single speed—no shifting necessary. Because the area surrounding Tulum has very little hills or inclined surfaces, there is no need for multi-gear bicycles. In addition, single speed rental bikes mean that there is less that can go wrong with a bike while cruising around Tulum. Less hassles = more fun! More fun = a better vacation experience. We provide the Tulum bike rentals—you provide the fun!
Easy To Ride
Because our bikes are well-maintained and single speed, they’re very easy to ride. There is nothing complex about them. In fact, if you can ride a bike, it is guaranteed that you can ride a Tulum bike rental. From the moment you get on our beach cruisers, you will quickly recognize that simplicity is synonymous with convenience. The more comfortable you are during your Tulum vacation, the smoother and more memorable your experience will be.
Front Basket Included
Whether you are going to the beach, souvenir shopping, or simply picking up some groceries, sometimes you need a place to put things on a Tulum rental bike. Fortunately, our Tulum bike rentals all include a front basket. Although this basket is not huge, it does serve as a convenient place to carry light goods that you may have picked up while biking in the Tulum area. While some bike rental providers charge extra for the front basket, we include it for free.
Unmarked Bikes
As the famous proverb states: “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” In this case it would likely read, “When in Tulum, do as the Mexicans do.” The point is this: you should do your best to fit in with the locals. Fitting in will help you avoid harassment by salespeople, police, and other malevolent people. Unlike our competitors—who go as far as selling advertising on the bikes that you rent—we keep all of our bikes completely unmarked for this specific reason. We do not want anyone to know that you are a tourist.
Why Rent A Bike In Tulum?
There are a great many reasons why it makes sense to rent a bike in Tulum. Moreover, each person has their own specific reasons why renting a bike is good for them. Any way you look at it, there are major advantages to using a bicycle for transportation around Tulum. Here are a few benefits you receive when you rent a bike in Tulum:
Dirt Cheap Transportation
You will not find a cheaper method of transportation than a bicycle. Compare renting a bike to renting a car, hailing down taxis everywhere you go, or even renting a scooter. A bicycle rental is a fraction of the price of what you would pay for any of the available alternatives.
Super E-Z Parking
Tulum can be busy—very busy. Depending on what time of year you visit Tulum, parking can get absolutely insane at places like the beach, the Tulum ruins, and the restaurants downtown and near the hotel zone. If you’re not careful, vehicles can also get towed and impound fees can be very expensive with the local, corrupt police force. A Tulum bike rental makes this part of your vacation an enjoyable breeze.
Freedom of Movement
With a Tulum bike rental, you have absolute freedom of movement. You can go where you want, when you want—without anyone telling you how to move, or charging you to do so. When it comes to going to the beach, exploring the back streets of Tulum, or just simply sightseeing, your freedom of movement is extremely important because it saves you from hassle during your precious vacation time. With a Tulum bike rental, you have absolute control over when and where you do things. Freedom is always priceless!
Good Exercise
Like most tourists, food is Is one of the primary reasons that you came to Mexico in the first place. If you’re not careful, you can gain a lot of weight in only a few days eating delicious Caribbean cuisine. A Tulum bike rental is an incredible way to get exercise during your vacation. If you’re on the move, you will burn a lot more calories than you would if you just bummed around the beach with a drink in your hand. A Tulum bike rental will force you to get off your butt, get some exercise, and make sure that you arrive home in the same shape that you were when you left. Rent a bike in Tulum—and get some great exercise!
Eco-Friendly Transportation
Tulum is well known for its eco-friendly environment. Moreover, both local officials and private businesses have gone out of their way in order to maintain a semblance of natural vegetation in the greater Tulum area. In order to keep the carbon footprint low, many of the properties maintain much of the original environment. By renting a bike in Tulum, you can help keep your carbon footprint to a minimum. By riding around on a bike, you burn virtually no fossil fuels and do not contribute to the necessity of making more roads in the downtown Tulum area. Save the planet. Rent a bike in Tulum.
ZERO Hidden Fees
Unlike so many other transportation options, a Tulum bike rental incurs no hidden fees or extra expenses. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for renting a car, where insurance is heavily pushed on clients. Getting around by taxi is even worse—with the Tulum taxi cartel overcharging and ripping off tourists with impunity. Even renting a scooter can incur charges for gasoline, helmets, insurance, etc. A Tulum bike rental gives you the option to move around without any hidden fees or expenses. The price you see is what you pay—nothing more; nothing less.
Safety First
Safety is extremely important while on vacation in Tulum. Trust us when we say that you do not want to end up in a Mexican hospital during your stay here. A Tulum bike rental is hands down the best option when it comes to safety. Because you will not be moving at the same speed as cars, scooters, etc, you will not be at the same risk if you crash on your bike. The easiest way to get around both safely and efficiently is via Tulum bike rental. You don’t want to regret a lousy decision you made before arriving. Rent a bike in Tulum and stay safe during your vacation!
Meet People
Most people that visit a foreign country like Mexico enjoy meeting other people and engaging with the locals. On a Tulum bike rental, you will have the option of stopping and checking out any place that you please. You can do this as much—or as little as you want. Inevitably, you will meet people along the way. This could range from arts and crafts vendors, other tourists, local biking groups, etc. If you are looking to meet people during your trip to Tulum, a Tulum bike rental is the way to go. Conversely, if you want to be left alone, you can also do that. It is your choice when renting a bike in Tulum.
What You Get When Renting A Bike
Renting a bike in Tulum with us is an all-inclusive affair.
This means that you receive everything that you need in order to rent a bike safely and efficiently.
Our competitors charge more for baskets and locks; we include them—and we do so at no additional cost to you! This is the way that a Tulum bike rental should operate. Unfortunately, when you rent with other bike rental providers in the Tulum area, the only thing you receive is a bicycle.
You get EVERYTHING when you rent with us! Take a look at the things that you will receive with TulumBikeRental.com:
Bicycle
A bicycle is the most obvious item that you receive when renting a bike in Tulum. However, our bicycles are special. They are finely-tuned machines that are both well-maintained and high-quality. You can’t go wrong with a good bicycle. Our commitment to quality transcends beyond the bicycle as well. Our commitment is to YOU!
Basket
We know that many of you will be shopping, carrying things to the beach, or picking up some basic groceries at one of the local markets. Consequently, we have included a basket at no additional charge to you. This basket is a permanent fixture on all of our bikes, so you can rest assured that it is not easy to steal or remove. It’s all about convenience for you.
Lock
Unfortunately, stealing is a way of life for some people in Mexico. Luckily, you will receive a lock with your bicycle rental. However, the lock that you receive is not an ordinary one. It is a Kryptonite lock—the most well-known and trustworthy bike locks in the entire world. These locks are made from extra strong material that is almost impossible to cut with basic bolt cutters. This means you have an extra layer of security to ensure that your bike is not stolen while renting a bike in Tulum.
Tulum Map
Because many of you are first-time visitors to Tulum, we struck a deal with one of the local map publishers. We want you to enjoy your bicycle rental in Tulum, so we include a Tulum map and brochure that shows you some of the most popular streets, sightseeing locations, and several reputable restaurants. At the time of rental, we can also point out several “must-see” locations that you can visit on your Tulum bike rental.

Places To Visit On A Rental Bike In Tulum
There are many places to visit in Tulum.
Most importantly, it is often easier to visit these places on a Tulum bike rental than it would be using some other form of transportation around the city.
There are Mayan ruins, beaches, beach clubs, bars, nightclubs, restaurants, souvenir stores, handicrafts markets, marketplaces, museums, downtown Tulum (a.k.a. Pueblo), and an endless number of places all within reach of a short ride on a bicycle.
Below you will find some of the most popular places to visit when renting a bike in Tulum:
Tulum Ruins
The Tulum ruins is probably the most popular place in the immediate area. Long before Tulum became a popular tourist destination full of resorts, beach clubs, and restaurants, it was the Tulum ruins that drove traffic visitors to the area. Although the Tulum ruins are still a very popular tourist destination among visitors, the other attractions mentioned above have also gained traction and now account for the majority of visitors to the area. Nonetheless, the ruins make an excellent place to visit on a Tulum bike rental.
Beach Clubs
Due to its proximity to the beach, Tulum has an endless supply of beach clubs. Most of them are publicly accessible. However, some of them are connected to exclusive resorts where access is strictly limited to guests only. If you are staying at one of the exclusive resorts, you will likely have several options available to you. In any case, while out on your Tulum bike rental, you will encounter a number of different beach clubs. The nice thing about a Tulum bike rental is the fact that you don’t have to be worried about driving home intoxicated on a bicycle. Drinking and driving laws do not apply to bicycles like they do cars or other motor vehicles. Get drunk—bike home.
Bars / Nightclubs
In addition to the countless number of beach clubs, you will see many bars and nightclubs. All of these are accessible via a Tulum bike rental. Once again, driving home drunk on a bike is not illegal—or even frowned upon—like it is driving a car, motorcycle, or scooter. Consequently, a Tulum bike rental will give you the option to visit all the bars and nightclubs you want with an easy way to get home at the end of the evening. If you need help finding some of the best bars and nightclubs to visit during your stay in Tulum, don’t hesitate to ask us at the time of rental. We can give you the suggestions that you might need.
Restaurants
Many people come to Mexico for the primary reason of tasting, sampling, and experiencing Mexican cuisine. There is no shortage of restaurants to visit in Tulum. You can probably visit a different restaurant every day for over a year and never eat at the same one twice! One nice thing about renting a bike in Tulum is the fact that you can stop and go as often as you want. Grab a snack at one restaurant. Stop again if something else smells good. Taste it. There’s no doubt that you will have the opportunity to taste food all day long if you are so inclined. A Tulum bike rental gives you this option. Renting a bike in Tulum is definitely the way to go if you want to be a Tulum food junkie during your vacation here.
Beaches
Tulum, of course, is known for its amazing beaches. Waves splash along white sand from the north of the Riviera Maya all the way down to the South—with Tulum being no exception to the rule. The influx of tourists has caused the beach to become extremely busy during the high seasons in Tulum. However, renting a bike in Tulum is by far the best way to access the beaches when parking lots are completely overflowing. A Tulum bike rental will save you countless number of hours and frustration because you will have easy access to the beaches surrounding Tulum. In addition, with a bike rental you are free to explore all the Tulum beaches—even the ones not accessible via taxi, rental car, or scooter!
Downtown Tulum
Tulum was originally known for its amazing Mayan ruins. However, a thriving city several miles in from the beach has grown into a mini metropolis that hosts in incredible downtown area. Downtown Tulum is full of places to see – restaurants, bars, nightclubs, souvenir shops, grocery markets, etc. Because traffic is sometimes heavy in downtown Tulum, one of the best ways to traverse the area is on a Tulum bike rental. In addition, when you do decide to stop at the multiple points of interest along the way, you will have no problem whatsoever parking because bike parking is always prioritized and closer to the door than any other. Finally, with your included bike lock, you don’t have to worry about your bike being stolen.
