According to the report Middle East & Africa Bicycle Market Outlook, 2027 the market was valued at around USD 2 billion in 2021, which is expected to grow at more than 3.5% CAGR for 2022-2027. Car traffic in the region is relatively unstructured, with high speeds and frequent lane changes, which is dangerous for cyclists. Because cyclists are vulnerable in traffic, the success of the bike path is heavily reliant on providing a safe cycling environment. However, there are locations where the bicycle infrastructure meets the car infrastructure, specifically where the bicycle path is routed through residential areas. At these locations, the law should assist in protecting cyclists against motorized traffic. While on the outside, Dubai and Abu Dhabi may not be considered bike-friendly cities due to their busy roads, there are several tracks across the countries, which are perfect for individual, and group rides.
The hybrid bikes go by several names: street, hybrid, and comfort. What all these names really mean is a super-comfortable bike. They are likely to have a considerable decline in market share by the forecasted period. The e-bike segment is expected to show the highest growth in the market. Government support and strict rules in favor of electric bikes are expected to drive the growth of the electric bike market. The region remains one of the world’s most repressive countries for women, where a man’s consent is obligatory for women to access human rights. With some changes are creeping in to loosen the grip of male guardianship, women were still not allowed to drive, not even a cycle for a long dark. Nevertheless, since the year 2017, the women took step towards the cycling and are now leading the way to cross border recognitions. This has given a boost to the women bicycle segment.
South Africa is arguably one of the best locations in the world for both guided and self-supported bicycle tours of various lengths. Further, cycling in UAE is becoming a popular choice among fitness enthusiasts who prefer outdoor sports over. Currently, the population of the region is still young, with children under age 15 accounting for a third of the population and young people aged 15 to 24 years accounting for a fifth. This has led the kids' bicycle segment to contribute to a share of less than 30% by value and volume in the year 2021. Cycling amongst women is becoming a big trend in Saudi Arabia, with cycling groups popping up and cycling shops being opened by women, allowing a change in the market. Launched in Abu Dhabi in 2014, bicycle sharing company Cyacle has since enjoyed great popularity among the residents of the Emirati capital. With 300 bicycles spread over 50 stations, the company now has nearly 75,000 regular users and is a leader in micro-mobility in the Middle East.
