Paralimni · 285 Protaras Avenue

Bike rental in Paralimni

This is where the shop is. Road bikes and a hardtail mountain bike to hire, a full workshop behind the counter, and eight officially signposted cycling routes that all start from this town.

€25a day

Collect from the shop on Protaras Avenue, and drop it back when you are done.

Walk in, ride out

There is nothing to arrange. Book the dates and the size online, come to the shop, and we will set the bike up to your height while you are standing there: saddle, bars, and your own pedals fitted if you have brought them. You leave on it.

That is worth more than it sounds if you are here for longer than a holiday week. A bike collected in person gets adjusted properly, changed if the size is not right, and brought back in for a look at any point during the hire.

We are in Paralimni. Collect from the shop and there is nothing to arrange: we will set the bike up for you before you leave with it.

Staying further along the coast? We drive to Protaras, Ayia Napa and Larnaca; the price is on those pages and in the booking form.

The bikes

Road bikes and a hardtail mountain bike, all serviced between hires in the workshop behind the shop. Book the size online, then come and collect it, and we will set it up while you wait. We are open 10:00 to 13:30, Monday to Saturday; come before 12:00 so there is time to do it properly.

Not sure which size to book?

You are minutes from the shop, so you are welcome to come in and let us size you in person. If you would rather know before you book, two measurements will do it.

Which frame size do I need?

Two measurements and we will tell you the frame size to book and which of our bikes we hold it in.

Without shoes.

Optional, and much the better answer. Floor to crotch, shoes off, back to a wall.

Worked out from your inseam × 0.665, the standard road-frame rule, measured centre-to-top. It is a starting point, not a bike fit: leg-to-torso ratio, flexibility and how you like to ride all move it. We check the fit at handover and adjust the bike before you leave with it.

Eight official routes start here

The Cyprus tourism authority publishes signposted cycling routes across the island. The Famagusta region has eight of them, and every one starts in or runs through Paralimni, from a 29.8 km loop round Konnos and Cape Greco to a 127.8 km day out to Kalo Chorio. There is also the signposted Tour of Deryneia, officially 93.6 km, which comes through the town.

That is an unusual asset for a region with no cycling industry around it, and almost nobody writes about it. We have listed all eight with their official distances, and been honest about what the official listings do not tell you: there is no published elevation, surface or turn-by-turn detail for any of them, so we have not invented any.

If you live here

Most of this site is written for visitors, and this part is not. The nearest well-known bike workshops to Paralimni are at the far end of the island, which for anyone riding regularly on this coast means a lost day every time something needs doing properly.

  • A full workshop for servicing, repairs and bike fitting: your bike, a bike you bought elsewhere, or one that has just come out of a box from another country. What we do and how to book.
  • Coaching in person rather than only online: cycling, triathlon, swimming and strength, from a coach who trains on these roads. Coaching.
  • A hire bike while yours is in bits, which is the quiet reason a lot of local riders end up on this page.
  • A youth cycling club and group sessions. There are more cyclists in this corner of the island than there is anything built for them.

Open Monday to Saturday. We are at 285 Protaras Avenue, Nichropa Court 4, Shop 4. The hours and a map are on the contact page.

What riders who came to the shop say

Staying nearby

In a hotel rather than in town?

We drive bikes out to Protaras, Ayia Napa and Larnaca and collect them again at the end. They arrive built, adjusted and ready, so your first morning is a ride rather than an errand. The price for each is on its own page and in the booking form.
