Prices vary by shop. City bikes are the most affordable option, while electric and gravel bikes — the best choice for the Tuscan hills — cost more, typically €30–50 a day for an e-bike. Weekend and multi-day rentals are cheaper. On Lokki you can compare prices across local shops before you book.

The Val d'Elsa is hilly and criss-crossed by strade bianche (white gravel roads), so an electric or gravel bike is the ideal choice. An e-bike flattens the climbs to hilltop towns like San Gimignano, while a gravel bike is perfect for the unpaved lanes. Classic city bikes suit gentler rides in the valley.

Ride the white gravel roads towards the towers of San Gimignano, follow sections of the ancient Via Francigena pilgrim route, or head south into the Chianti hills among vineyards and cypress trees. These are some of the most photogenic cycling landscapes in Italy, best enjoyed on a gravel or electric bike.

Yes. San Gimignano and its famous medieval towers are within easy reach by bike, on a mix of quiet roads and strade bianche through the hills. It is a rewarding ride with some climbing, so an electric or gravel bike is the most comfortable choice for the round trip.

In spring and autumn, the peak seasons for cycling in Tuscany, e-bikes and gravel bikes sell out quickly, so booking ahead is recommended. On Lokki you can reserve your bike online before you arrive, choose your dates and size, and have it ready when you reach the shop.
