United kingdom (UK) Bicycle Market Overview, 2027

"The bicycle market in the UK is experiencing significant growth and demand driven by various factors. Rising concerns about environmental sustainability, congestion, and the promotion of active lifestyles have contributed to an increased interest in cycling as a mode of transportation and recreation. The UK government's initiatives to improve cycling infrastructure, such as dedicated bike lanes and bike-sharing programs, have played a crucial role in encouraging more people to take up cycling. Additionally, the growing popularity of electric bikes has opened up new possibilities for commuters and recreational cyclists alike. The UK's cycling culture, with events like the Tour de France and the increasing popularity of cycling as a sport, has also boosted the demand for bicycles. Technological advancements, including lightweight materials, improved gear systems, and innovative designs, have made bicycles more efficient, comfortable, and appealing to a wide range of consumers. The UK bicycle market offers a diverse range of options, from urban commuters to road racers and mountain bikes, catering to the various needs and preferences of cyclists in the country. According to the report, ""United Kingdom (UK) Bicycle Market Overview, 2027"" published by Bonafide Research, the market is anticipated to witness prominent market growth during the upcoming timeframe. Continuously mounting demand for faster and cleaner modes of transportation is creating new opportunities for bicycle manufacturers across the country as the pollution created by emissions from gasoline-powered automobiles has reached new heights. In the meantime, green solution suppliers and manufacturers have seen this as an opportunity. Bicycle manufacturing companies present in the country are taking advantage of these circumstances to expand and grow their business. In addition to that, the bicycle market's growth is also driven by a rise in disposable income and a surge in consumer spending on the industry. Further, increased demand for bicycles as a handy mode of transportation to maintain a healthy lifestyle free of overweight and other illnesses is predicted to fuel future growth in the market. As a result, dockless bicycle-sharing systems, which do not need a docking station, are becoming more popular. Using this method, users may detect a bicycle in their immediate vicinity and electrically unlock it. On the other hand, electric bicycles, or e-bikes, have the highest potential for growth and will register an absolute incremental opportunity during the forecast period of 2022-2027 across the country. Electric cycles have emerged as the most convenient option for local commutes, which will drive the bicycle sector due to their numerous advantages. Electric bicycles, also referred to as pedelecs, provide a faster commute than traditional bicycles, and they also require less human effort to ride, overcoming one of the major disadvantages of traditional cycles.

According to the report, the United kingdom (UK) bicycle market is segmented into various types of bicycles, including road bikes, mountain bikes, hybrid bikes, and electric bikes. Among these types, e-bikes are projected to acquire a higher market share in 2021 and are expected to continue this growth. Further, the market is categorized into three end users, including men, women, and kids. The men's segment holds a major share of the market as the male population is more inclined towards biking and cycling than other segments. Additionally, men's growing inclination towards hiking and leisure activities is further driving the segmental growth. On the other hand, the kids & women segment is expected to showcase considerable growth during the forecast period owing to the increasing trend of holiday bicycling among households across the country. Based on the biker’s type, the market is segmented into four types, such as highly engaged, engaged, leisure, and travel. Among these types, leisure is anticipated to witness higher market growth by 2027 in the United kingdom (UK) bicycle market. COVID-19 Impact: Strong consumer demand for various kinds of exercise-related items such as indoor and outdoor bikes, dumbbells, rowers, and other gym equipment to maintain health and fitness during the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to skyrocket the demand for bikes in United kingdom (UK). Additionally, the lack of public mobility vehicles such as trains, buses, and others due to lockdown restrictions has further sparked the consumer’s interest in buying such vehicles. However, sudden supply chain disruptions in the automobile industry during the pandemic period are expected to impose severe challenges to the overall industry growth. These challenges primarily include tightening cash flows between the small-scale equipment distributors companies associated with this market. The growing popularity of remote work among corporate professionals and others is expected to reduce the number of daily road commuters across the country.
