E-bike rental in Salento

E-bike rental Salento

E-bike rental in Salento

Pedal-assist Trek and Rockrider e-bikes for the Salento coast and countryside, with free pickup in Lecce, Calimera and San Foca or delivery to your accommodation.

Salento is flat enough to be enjoyable and long enough to be tiring: between Lecce, Otranto and Santa Maria di Leuca the distances add up, the summer sun is strong and the wind off the Adriatic rarely stops. A pedal-assist bike solves all three, letting you ride 60 or 70 km and still arrive fresh for lunch and a swim.

We rent e-bikes we ride ourselves: four models, all serviced before each rental, delivered with helmet, lights, lock, phone mount, pump and repair kit. Every rental comes with route advice from local cyclists — where the asphalt is smooth, where the white roads start and where to stop for coffee.

Why rent an e-bike in Salento

Longer rides, less effort

Assist levels let you cover coast-to-coast distances or link several towns in a day without training for it.

Wind and heat handled

The Adriatic headwind and July temperatures stop being a problem: you choose how much help you want, kilometre by kilometre.

Ride together

Mixed groups work: different fitness levels can stay on the same route and the same pace.

Mixed terrain ready

Our e-bikes take asphalt, seafront paths and Salento's white gravel roads on the same ride.

Where to ride with an e-bike

Three itineraries that work particularly well with pedal assist. We give you the GPX and the local tips when you pick up the bike.

Otranto → Santa Cesarea Terme

about 20 km one way

The most scenic stretch of the Adriatic coast, with short climbs above the cliffs that assist turns into pure view.

San Foca → Torre dell'Orso → Sant'Andrea

about 25 km

Seafront asphalt, pinewoods and coves: ideal for a half day with swimming stops.

Lecce → Gallipoli coast to coast

about 45 km

Adriatic to Ionian across olive groves and white roads: with an e-bike it is a comfortable day out.

E-bike rental FAQ

How far can I ride on one battery?

Realistically 50 to 90 km depending on model, assist level, wind and rider weight. On the Trek models you can add a second removable battery for a longer day; the extra battery is a paid add-on per day.

Do I need a licence or insurance?

No. Pedal-assist bikes up to 25 km/h are legally bicycles in Italy: no licence, no plate, no helmet obligation for adults — although a helmet is included with every rental and we recommend wearing it.

Where can I pick up the e-bike?

Pickup and return are free at our three points in Lecce, Calimera and San Foca, with flexible hours. We also deliver across Salento — hotels, villas, B&Bs and masserie — with the delivery cost based on distance and confirmed when you book.

How do I recharge it?

Every e-bike comes with its charger: a normal household socket refills the battery in a few hours, typically overnight at your accommodation.

Which model should I choose?

For long coastal rides and comfort, the Trek Dual Sport+ 2 LT; for city, seafront and a nimble feel, the Trek FX+ 2 LT; for dirt tracks and hills, the Rockrider E-ST 500; for relaxed trekking with an upright position, the Rockrider E-ACTV 100. Compare them side by side or ask us on WhatsApp.

Can I book for the whole week?

Yes, and it is cheaper per day: weekly rates are shown in the price table above. Book early in July and August, when the e-bikes go first.
