Does anyone know if there are country specific rules or regulations for bringing a bicycle along for personal use when vacationing in Mexico.

We brought two bikes last year, never questioned by anyone at the border or otherwise. I have heard that your bikes and rack can’t block your license plate while driving and might give the police an excuse to pull you over.

Hi Ron

We brought 2 bikes down 2 years ago no issues vancouver to mex city, then to zlo.
Aeromexico charged us 100 $ each for oversize and overweight. Also lost them in mexico city but was later discovered the small plane coming to zlo was full and they had no room for them . Arrived next day .they don't allow batteries if electric bikes.

Cheers

I just brought my bike down on Alaska Airlines.
Bikes treated as regular luggage.

It was bumped due to weight-balance issue for the plane in LA and was delivered three days later to my Casa in LM.

Box was in questionable condition but bike and all packing was intact and unbroken.

Pack well!!

No Customs problems.
