The Good Stuff
Bike range
Reviews mention mountain, electric and road bikes, giving riders more than one type of ride to choose from.
Cycling track
The on-site track and nearby trails are a major part of the experience, though some riders found the route physically demanding.
Bike condition
Multiple visitors describe the bikes as nice or well maintained, including one review calling them excellent condition.
Quick assistance
A rider with a flat tyre reported that help arrived in five minutes, useful reassurance if something goes wrong mid-ride.
Cozy setting
The shop is described as quiet, cozy and enjoyable, rather than just a place to collect a bike.
Early opening
One review says the shop opened at 6am, before the park’s opening hours, which suits an early ride.
Tips for a Better Visit
Book ahead. Phone and reserve bikes before weekend rides; one review specifically recommends advance booking for weekends.
Check battery. For an electric bike, confirm the battery level and expected range before leaving, since one bike reportedly died inside the park.
Inspect bike. Before setting off, test the gears, chain and brakes; reviews include a chain failure and brakes locking on descents.
Allow entry. For a 6am visit, tell the park gate staff you are going to Be Cyclist, as the shop may open before the park.
Discuss fees. Ask about the full rental cost and negotiate where appropriate; one customer directly advised negotiating the rental fees.

The Bottom Line
Be Cyclist Dubai is a rental spot in Mushraif for taking a bike onto the park’s cycling track and nearby trails. The reviews mention mountain bikes, electric bikes and road bikes, while several families used the venue for riding lessons. Children reportedly learned without training wheels in about 5–20 minutes, although results will naturally vary by rider.
The setting is a recurring part of the appeal: customers describe the shop as cozy and quiet, and one review highlights opening at 6am, before the park’s usual hours. There is also coffee after the ride, plus mentions of chocolate shakes and fruit smoothies. Staff are often praised for helping choose the right bike, adjust settings and respond quickly to a flat tyre.
There are some practical cautions. Reported prices include 65 dirhams per hour for bicycles and 200 AED per hour for an electric bicycle, but these are customer-reported figures rather than a current price list. Ask about the fee and negotiate if appropriate.
For electric bikes, check the battery before leaving. A few reviews describe mechanical problems, including a chain coming off and brakes locking on descents, so test the bike’s key parts before starting. Weekend riders should phone and book ahead.
