The sampling method uses proportional random sampling, and the criteria for respondents are bicycle users who are at least 15 years old. The structural equation model used WarpPLS. Findings: The proposed model shows that a healthy lifestyle is the main determinant of consumers in deciding to buy a bicycle. It can also prove that the product attribute as a moderating variable and make a positive contribution to the purchase decision. Practical Implications: Companies should be more inclined to build brand popularity to enhance brand image, so it becomes a reason for consumers to choose.

Bike to work activities will have a positive impact on reducing air pollution, and improving public health.
