Bike shops in Las Palmas: 53 businesses and 41 workshops across three islands

In the province of Las Palmas you can ride all year round. Gran Canaria has proper summits, with roads climbing up from the sea through Canary Island pines. Lanzarote and Fuerteventura are something else: lava, wind and long tracks between volcanoes. That's why cyclists from all over Europe come in winter, and why there's so much bike hire here. If you're looking for bike shops in Las Palmas, the bicis.net directory lists 53 businesses for cyclists in the province (data as of 10 November 2026). Here's how to find yours, whether you live on the islands or you're visiting for a few days.

How many shops, workshops and hire places there are in Las Palmas

Of those 53 businesses, 42 are bike shops and 41 are workshops, and twenty-six also hire out bikes. Almost half the businesses in the province offer hire, something you hardly see in any province on the mainland. There are also businesses that run guided rides and accommodation designed for cyclists. The directory counts each business under everything it does, which is why the rows add up to more than the total.

That makes 53 businesses in the directory in total. Source: bicis.net, Ciclismo en cifras, shops and workshops by province, data as of 10 November 2026 (n = 1,913 businesses in Spain and Andorra). Shops and workshops come from OpenStreetMap and from the businesses that sign up on the website.

How to find yours in the directory

Go to the bike shops in Las Palmas and search by your town. In Gran Canaria, look in the capital, in Telde and the eastern corridor, or in the tourist south (San Bartolomé de Tirajana, Mogán). In Lanzarote, in Arrecife, Puerto del Carmen or Costa Teguise. In Fuerteventura, in Puerto del Rosario, Corralejo or the Jandía peninsula. Each listing shows you where it is on the map, what services it offers and how to get in touch. If you need to get yours fixed, go straight to the bike workshops in Las Palmas. Three tips before you go:

• Call ahead. From November to March, high season for visiting cyclists, workshops are busy and many work by appointment.
• Say what bike you ride. Not every workshop handles suspension, hydraulic brakes or e-bikes. Better to find out on the phone.
• Ask about parts. On the islands, if a spare has to be ordered from the mainland it can take longer. Ask how long before you leave it.

If you have a shop or workshop in the province and you're not in the directory, or your details have changed, you can sign up for free and complete your listing.

Hiring a bike in Gran Canaria, Lanzarote or Fuerteventura

If you're coming for a few days, hiring usually works out better than checking your bike in on the plane. There are plenty of hire businesses in the province, so you have a choice, but they fill up in winter.

What to ask for when you book

Give your height and the frame size you ride, the type of bike (road, gravel, mountain or e-bike) and the dates. Bring your own pedals and saddle if you're used to them: almost all of them will fit them for you.

What to check when you pick it up

Brakes, tyre pressure and gearing. In Gran Canaria you'll be climbing a lot: ask for a big sprocket. Ask what to do if you puncture far away and whether they'll come and get you.

With the wind, in Lanzarote and Fuerteventura

The trade winds blow hard and almost always from the north or north-east. Plan your route so you come back with a tailwind and carry plenty of water: there are long stretches without a bar.

What to ask the workshop for if you ride on the islands

Salt eats bolts, cables and chains, and volcanic dust gets into the drivetrain. Rinse the bike with fresh water after riding along the coast, dry it and lube the chain with a dry lube. Every few months, ask them to check cables, headset and pads. The descents from the summits of Gran Canaria are long: before you climb, have them check the brake fluid.

Routes to try out your bike in Las Palmas

Fresh out of the workshop, it's time to ride. bicis.net has 13 routes starting in the province of Las Palmas, 349.4 km in total (data as of 10 November 2026). Two to get you started:

• To test yourself: the Pico de las Nieves climb from Tejeda, the toughest route in the province on the website, with Roque Nublo in view.
• To ride among volcanoes: the Vuelta a Lanzarote, stage 3, from Ye to Caleta de Famara, on gravel across the north of the island.

Every route has its map, its profile, the GPX and the weather forecast for the day you ride. In Fuerteventura you also have climbs inland and its bare mountains. © OpenStreetMap contributors.
