With the continuing threat of COVID 19, we cannot deny that it’s still risky to use public transportation when getting to work or buying essential goods. For this reason, many people have considered acquiring their vehicles---some buy cars, and most purchase bicycles. According to a study conducted by the iPrice group, there has been a tremendous increase in Filipinos interested in bikes. It was no wonder that Google search volume about bicycles in 2020 is 163% higher than that in 2019!
Let’s take a look at the most popular type of bicycles among Filipinos.
Mountain Bikes. Covering 42% of the total Google searches on various bicycles, mountain bikes indeed topped the list. This type of bike is well-suited for off-road single-track trails, dirt or gravel paths, and extreme streets, considering its versatility. Pinoys love adventure, and mountain bikes are a perfect choice!
Road Bikes. Road bikes are the second top favorite of Filipinos. Riding a road bike is ideal on paved roads and smooth paths designed for speed with its light and agile features. If you have work and public transportation is still unavailable in your area, you may include buying one in your checklist.
BMX. Since BMX is an off-road sport bicycle used for racing and stunt riding, it is unexpectedly one of the top choices of Filipinos. If you are bored in the house and wanted to engage in a freestyle riding sport, BMX can be your go-to bicycle.
Among the top 3 choices of Pinoys, which one is your favorite?
A bike boom it is! Biking as a “new normal” also gets the support of Department Of Health as the department encouraged bicycles as both an alternative transportation solution and a health solution during and even after the Covid-19 pandemic. With this, will transportation in the ‘new normal’ be on two wheels? Are we ready to adopt a culture of cycling?
