Since a bike is a more complex mechanism than a stroller, it is likely to break and on Shabbos it would involve doing a melacha. All complex mechanical things are banned on Shabbos.

In urban area, it is halachically allowed but very dangerous since if you bump into a car, the person on the bike loses. In places with no motor vehicles, there is no such problem.
