Because they have never gotten around to Try Cycles.

[Annex]

A thirteen wheeled vehicle with one missing wheel just makes more sense.

[Brandwynn]

It would only confuse the locals.

[Hawklynn]

Perhaps these guys got the rights for Bicycles in the D&D settings (although not sure if it applies to DDO):

Because! Could you imagine the air traffic?!!!

[spifflove]

Because we ride the sleigh.

A thirteen wheeled vehicle with one missing wheel just makes more sense.

That’s bicyclely the same.

[DoctorOfLiterature]

Bicycles are fun but horses look cooler and teleportation is faster.

[Saekee]

because the horses, unlike the bikes, fit in the backpack

[Egilson]

Because the horses took and vote and they said, "nay."

[krzyysiek098]

Because they still use horses.

[Dragonlover333]

In Stormreach, the frequently uneven ground, twisting paths, and other city-planning oddities make bicycles impractical at best. (Imagine a reckless hooligan riding down a Deneith ramp and crashing into someone below.) In Sharn, the vertical nature of the city makes Soar Sleds far more useful.

[Dulcimerist]

Because they're two tired.

[The_Human_Cypher]

The sound of the squeaking wheels make the Warforged nervous.

[Taceo]

There would be too many accidents with Artificers around.

[mbartol]

House Lyrandar lobbied hard to suppress them.

[rfachini]

Because they are too much work, compared to fly spells, flying carpets, and airships.

[Memnir]

Why doesn't Eberron have bicycles?

The Grand Cloister of Flumphs knows... but outside of tales told to terrify young Flumphs at slumber- time, they've suppressed the knowledge as best they can.

[Drahxor]

Because no one invented yet.
