Availability of parts in Mauritius

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm heading off to Mauritius for an extended period. I've been advised to take my bike along as apparently bikes are very expensive that side. My bike is a 27.5'er (Giant Trance), so I am a bit concerned about finding parts. In SA it is at times a mission to find especially parts for wheels. Does anyone have any experience with finding parts that side, or know generally how availability looks? Ideally I don't want to import everything myself.

I know there are a few decent bike shops and amazing trails on Reunion island. Was there in 2018...... Just a stone throw from Mauritius.

Pretty sure you could do some grey importing that way

Hi Riaan - there are a few bikes shops for MTB and Road, parts have been a challenge worldwide, but generally we ( the cycling community) manages. Best

Hi. I know there is a specialized shop in the north of the island. That said i know a lot of people there just ask someone to bring it back from SA as there is always someone traveling between there and SA.

Enjoy the Island :)
