7 Budget Bikes You Can Buy on Amazon – a Range of Options

Note that these bikes are not rated in order of preference. Instead, we present a range of options, from budget road bikes to cheap cruisers to very affordable mountain bikes. These are all great bikes, at budget prices.

Bike #1: Raleigh Detour Comfort Hybrid Bike

First on our list of 7 great budget bikes you can buy on Amazon is the Raleigh Detour Comfort Hybrid Bike. This bike is Amazon’s no. 1 best seller in comfort bikes, and is highly rated by those you have bought it.

7 Great Budget Bikes You Can Buy on Amazon - Cruiser, Mountain and Hybrid. Raleigh Detour 2 Comfort Hybrid Bike
Raleigh Detour Comfort Hybrid Bike


Raleigh has designed the Detour Comfort Hybrid Bike for comfortable, casual bike commuting. It’s more comfortable than a road bike, but remains an efficient commuting machine with 21 Shimano Altus gears. You can easily change gears on this bike thanks to the easy-fire shifters (my favorite kind of gear shifters). And you don’t even have to move your hands to access them!

The upright riding position will help you to be safe in traffic – and the bike is light enough to be easy to maneuver your way through the traffic. The robust aluminum frame is ready for you to add on racks and fenders, to make this bike ideal for commuting.

Designed for Comfort and Trouble-Free Bike Rides

You won’t have to change up the saddle and grips – the saddle is spring-loaded for comfort, while the comfort grips protect you from elbow pain and numb hands.

Usually when I buy a new bike, the first thing I do is upgrade to puncture-resistant tires. But you won’t have to do that with this bike, because Raleigh has pre-fitted it with puncture-resistant tires! Meaning that you will seldom if ever have your commute interrupted by a flat tire. Perhaps best of all for some beginner cyclists, this sturdy bike is rated to carry riders up to 350 pounds! There is no better way to guarantee weight loss than to make regular cycling part of your life. See our post called 7 Steps to Lose Weight Cycling.

This short video shows you a bit more about this bike:

As noted in the video, this Raleigh bike is shipped almost ready to ride, 95% assembled. One reviewer says: “This bike is built for comfort and style, and it delivers!” And as Raleigh says:

“Raleigh Bicycles are designed around one simple idea: fun. It’s an idea that inspired the very first bikes way back in 1887 and continues to inspire how things are done today. Hop on a Raleigh and enjoy the ride!”

Bike #2: Cruiser Touring Hybrid: sixthreezero EVRYjourney

No 2 on our list of great cheap bikes you can on Amazon is the sixthreezero EVERYjourney Touring Hybrid. This bike is Amazon’s no. 1 best seller in hybrid bikes. It offers amazingly good value in a great looking classic cruiser. The company states that with this bike, they aim to provide:

“The most comfortable bike ever. It is for the recreational rider who wants a bike that is extremely comfortable, extremely durable, but also versatile. Someone who wants light exercise, but wants to be really conformable while riding. Your back is going to be upright, your arms are going to be relaxed. All the tension will be off your body while riding this bike.”

For more details, see the video just a little further down in this post.

This cruiser boasts an internal 7 speed Shimano hub (for minimal maintenance), and comes with integrated, matching fenders, chain guard, and rack. This bike is extremely highly rated by buyers. And step through bikes are ideal for casual cycling, regardless of your gender. Not to mention that they are easy to get onto, even if you’re not so young anymore!

Bike #3: Vilano Shadow 3.0 Road Bike

Coming in at no. 3 on our list of 7 great budget bikes you can buy on Amazon is this great looking road bike. The Vilano Shadow 3.0 Road Bike is an entry-level road bike that is ideal for commuting and exercise. The bike is built on a lightweight 6061 aluminum frame with an integrated headset and internal cable routing. Internal cables are great because they reduce dirt and maintenance.

Unusually for an entry-level bike, this road bike integrates controllable braking and shifting in a convenient single unit. The Vilano Shadow 3.0 is a smart choice for those on a budget who are ready to hit the road!

The Vilano Shadow 3.0 Road Bike is engineered to meet or exceed US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) 16 CFR 1512, 16 CFR 1303.

This bike requires assembly. If you are not really good at this kind of thing, take it to a bike shop for assembly. That way, you can be sure your bike is safe.

Specifications of the Vilano Shadow 3.0 Road Bike

  • STI Integrated Brake Lever/Shifters for controllable braking and shifting in a convenient single unit

Bike #4: Cruiser: Firmstrong Urban Lady

This pretty bike made it onto our list of 7 great cheap bikes you can buy on Amazon largely due to ease of assembly and great looks. It is Amazon’s no. 1 best seller in comfort cruisers, and gets great reviews as a comfortable and easy-to-ride cruiser. The Urban Lady comes as a single-speed, a three-speed, and a seven-speed. The single- and three-speed models have coaster brakes, while the seven-speed offers front and rear handbrakes. For that reason, we definitely recommend the seven-speed version. Most of us have not used coaster brakes since we were kids, and it can be hard to get the hang of it again.

As you can see from the video, once you order this bike, all you have to do is put on the front wheel, the saddle, and the pedals, and you are ready to start pedaling!

Bike #5: Diamondback Bicycles Overdrive Hardtail Mountain Bike

This is a very highly rated, entry-level mountain bike. We feature it at no. 5 on our list of 7 great budget bikes you can buy on Amazon because of the amazing specs it offers for a budget price. For example, and very surprising at this price point, this mountain bike has a carbon fiber frame. The 24 gears will help a lot with hills. And you can choose from 27.5 or 29 inch wheels.

The RockShox fork on this bike is very impressive for a budget bike, featuring 100 mm of travel and – incredibly – on-the-fly lockout control. Add in hydraulic disc brakes, and you’ve got an amazing amount of rugged bike for a budget price.

Professional assembly is available at some locations, for a $79 fee. If you lack the skills, I highly recommend this option. If you are not near one of the designated locations, any bike store would be able to do it with ease.

Pro Tips on How to Buy Great Budget Bikes from Amazon

Get Your Bike Shipped for Free with Amazon Prime

Amazon is my go-to for most shopping, with free shipping and easy exchanges making it a no-brainer for me, because I do not like to waste time actually going shopping. Like you, my time is valuable, so time saved is money saved – meaning that online shopping actively saves me money. I am a member of Amazon Prime, and get two-day shipping free for a huge number of items. To me the most useful aspect of Amazon Prime is I don’t feel subtly pressured to buy more stuff just to qualify for free shipping. So if for example I just need an $8 tube, that is all I buy – and I still get free shipping by choosing a tube that is eligible for Amazon Prime. That’s a pretty unbeatable deal, once you start thinking about the value of the time you save by not having to go to the store.

My best Amazon story was when I was renovating a condo in Canada. I discovered I had bought the wrong size sink, and the plumber was booked for the very next day. The local retailer told me it would take them a week to get me the sink I wanted from the States (a huge Farmhouse double bowl thing with a shipping weight of 63 pounds). Amazon got it to me in ONE day!

Free, Fast Shipping from Amazon – and Assembly Too on Some Models

Because bikes are eligible for Amazon prime shipping, you will get your bike quickly. Amazon also offers some good options for assembly on select models. For example, some bikes that cost over $500 can be shipped for free to a local Performance Bike or Velofix location, which will assemble the bike for you for free. You can also choose to pay $77 to have a bike shipped to your home, where a mechanic from Amazon’s network of shops and vendors will assemble it for you.

You can of course assemble your new bike yourself, if you have the skills. And finally, if the specific retailer offers no assembly options, you can always pay your local bike store a small fee to assemble it for you. Check with your local bike shop about this before you order, to make sure that are willing to assemble the specific bike that you are planning to order. If they are, this is also a good indication that it is a decent quality bike. Many bike stores refuse to work on “department store” bikes.

Bottom Line on Buying Buying Great Budget Bikes on Amazon

Yes, you can now buy a bike on Amazon with confidence. Shipping is likely to be free, and returns are fair and easy. Most important, some of the bikes are extremely good value for money. So, if you cannot get down to a local bike shop, Amazon offers an excellent alternative. So go check it out now!
