In the heart of Sri Lanka’s manufacturing industry, Lumala Bicycles stands as a proud symbol of homegrown innovation, durability, and trust. For nearly five decades, Lumala has been more than just a bicycle brand — it has been a part of everyday Sri Lankan life, empowering schoolchildren, workers, and families with reliable and affordable mobility.

From Japan to Katunayake: A Journey of Growth

Lumala began in 1975, representing a renowned Japanese brand. But by 1985, it transitioned into local manufacturing, marking the birth of a truly Sri Lankan bicycle company. Today, Lumala operates one of the largest production facilities in South Asia, producing over 500,000 bicycles a year — including city bikes, mountain bikes, kids’ cycles, and modern electric models.

Pedaling Toward Progress

What sets Lumala apart is its constant evolution. In the 1990s, the brand expanded its range to cater to different needs — from utility bikes to sporty models. In the 2000s, Lumala entered the export market, sending bicycles to over 20 countries including the USA, UK, and Middle East. More recently, it has embraced e-bike technology, offering eco-friendly solutions for urban commuting.

More Than a Brand — A Social Movement

Lumala’s mission goes beyond profit. Through initiatives like donating bikes to schoolchildren in rural areas and supporting delivery riders in the gig economy, Lumala is helping build a more connected and equitable society. Whether it’s getting to school on time or reaching customers in remote towns, Lumala bicycles are changing lives.

Built with Care, Trusted Everywhere

Every Lumala bicycle is made with precision, using strong, lightweight frames, and designed to handle both urban roads and rugged terrain. With a legacy built on quality, comfort, and innovation, the brand continues to win the trust of riders young and old.

Ride the Future, Ride Lumala

From local roads to international trails, Lumala carries the spirit of Sri Lanka on two wheels. It’s not just a bicycle — it’s a partner in progress, a step toward sustainability, and a legacy in motion.

Ride Sri Lanka. Ride Lumala.
