We slept in and unfortunately they were all out of bikes but had 2 electric bikes left. They were super apologetic about not having any other bikes. We weren't looking for a daily rental so were okay with the higher price tag for the electric bike, plus we've always wanted to try riding one. And off we went, zipping around the wall! We did the entire wall in about 20 minutes, including numerous stops along the way to take pics. The electric bikes are FUN! I don't think I've smiled that much in a really long time. I definitely want to look into purchasing one now! It made the (very few) hills so easy. We wound up going around at least 4 times, including a yummy stop for lunch at Lo Skianto As we returned the bikes, I checked in on yelp and got a 20% off bike rental coupon! What a surprise! So the more expensive rental actually was less expensive! The guys were super nice in the shop and had lots of bikes back when we returned them. Everything looked great!

DANGEROUS BIKES! Highly discourage use of Veloce for anyone doing touring. Bikes were unsafe (one…read morehad disc brakes with no brake pads! One had totally destroyed bottom bracket -pictured here- AND a back tire with no tread left). And, he had the nerve to show me pictures of the $5000 bikes he was buying for road bike rental when we delivered the bikes back! We were led to believe we would be getting high end bikes, they would have been decent had they new/good mechanical condition. Not high end though. We could have bought new bikes for the same price and sold them back to the store at the end of trip. And avoided 3 trips to the mechanic during our trip. He did pay us back for the mechanic visits and refunded one day of rental after multiple requests. Absolutely not advised to patronize.

DO NOT RENT BIKES FROM VELOCE!!!!!!!…read more Gennaro de Concilio that works for Veloce is dishonest, overpriced and delivered bikes that were at least 8 years old. Two bikes for 4 days was $600!!!! The bikes had inadequate gearing for the big mountain passes near Bormio. They did not appear to be safe and had obvious cosmetic damage. We advised Gennaro that we were not going to use the bikes and requested a refund. He said he would process the cancelation, but never issued a refund.

If you're looking for a bike tour in Florence, I highly recommend Toscana by E-bike…read more My husband and I (62 & 61 yo) took a 30 minute bus ride from Florence to Montespertoli to get to the bike shop. The owner, Massimo, is absolutely the nicest man you will ever meet. Our guide, Valentina, was the best. She is very passionate about ecology and Tuscany. The included lunch in a local cafe was a highlight. The local cheese and meats were fabulous. The E-bikes were so nice in the rolling hills. You can also just rent bikes and do a self-guided tour. You must email them to arrange your ride; there is no on-line link on the website to reserve a trip. Massimo wants to arrange a trip just for you.

If you're looking for a truly authentic local experience in the countryside around Florence then…read moreyou must consider Toscana by Bike. Montespertoli is an ideal location from which to embark on a variety of destinations; day trips to Vinci, San Miniato, Via Francigena, San Gimignano, Certaldo, and downtown Florence are all accessible from the shop if you're interested in a full day of riding and exploring. Alternatively, for those looking for a shorter excursion (I would recommend at least 4 hours), the hills, castles, bakeries, wineries, and little restaurants/delis of the area in and around Montespertoli are second to none. On top of that, if you're lucky enough to be guided by the owner, Massimo, you'll be treated to a true Toscano whose knowledge of the area, combined with his hospitality and charm, are guaranteed to deliver an unforgettable experience. Don't miss out if you're in the area!
