Deserted Posted December 12, 2022 Posted December 12, 2022 Could someone please provide links for websites of facebook names for any bicycle shops in Bangkok that have their own website. Thank you.
Deserted Posted December 12, 2022 Author Posted December 12, 2022 I bought my last bike from here, but don't know of any other shops. https://www.probike.co.th/en
kokopelli Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 The website listed above also has a Dealer list with other bike websites.
Hanuman2547 Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 Here's a list of bike shops in the greater Bangkok area. Some have websites, facebook pages, and/or both. Not sure if you are looking to buy a bike or need bicycle related services such as a tune-up, etc. but this should at least help.

frequentatore Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 I've bought stuff from all of them, except the last one: Facebook + website: ลาดปลาเค้าจักรยาน LKBike Nakornthai Bike AIM BIKE Let's Bike by Goro WorldBike Bangkok กม.8จักรยาน (they used to have their own website, they now use Shopee) BOVELO Bangkok Bike Shop
Deserted Posted December 13, 2022 Author Posted December 13, 2022 Yeah, found this one, pretty good. https://www.aimbike.com/product/4854/จักรยานไฮบริด-kaze-brulee
digbeth Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 https://www.playbikeshop.com/ https://th-th.facebook.com/eightridar/ https://th-th.facebook.com/BikeOutletTH/ one thing about bike shop in Thailand is that there are 'Main Dealers' or Importers, who also has their own shop/showroom and probably has the best range of their products and slick looking website, but won't undercut on price with any 'mom&pop' dealers who distribute their products, so you'll get better price from the local bike shop
Deserted Posted December 14, 2022 Author Posted December 14, 2022 Thanks guys, I have been having a shop around and spotted a few bikes by the manufacturer Kaze, who are Japanese. I haven't heard of them before, are they any good. Bikes tend to be between 10-15k, which is a bit cheap but not too cheap in my opinion. What sort of reputation do they have, does anyone know?

Deserted Posted December 15, 2022 Author Posted December 15, 2022 I'm being told by the shop I want the Kaze bike from that they can't promise they can get it because it depends on the distributor. They have a few Giant bikes that are kinda the same and only slightly more expensive. I've never really liked Giant bikes even though you see them a lot in Thailand. I always thought they were a bit cheap and likely to need repairs often? Am I wrong there? Any Giant owners satisfied with their bike. I only go for hybrid bikes so I am kinda limited with what I can get. The shop is offering this as an alternative if I can't get the one I want. https://www.aimbike.com/product/2655/จักรยานไฮบริด-giant-escape-3-2022

I only go for hybrid bikes so I am kinda limited with what I can get. I've only owned Giant mountain bikes and have been very pleased with mine. Rarely needed any mechanical work done it. I did a 300km unsupported bike tour in southern Thailand with my Giant MTB a number of years ago. No problems at all! I can't really speak for their hybrid or road bikes as no experience with those.
Deserted Posted December 15, 2022 Author Posted December 15, 2022 ok, thanks for the input 300km on a mountian bike is quite a ride.
