Cycling around Puerto Escondido can be done on any bike – but most local people use a mountain bike. A gravel bike could be ridden 90% of the locations because the roads just outside of town are hard packed dirt. A few people ride road bikes but they only ride along the major roads like the costal hi-way 200 or out to the mountain towns like San Pedro or Colotepec. View some cycling routes here.
