Which electric bike model for the Maremma?

For the Maremma, choose an electric trekking hybrid bike with a mid-drive motor, with tires of about 45 à 55 mm and a battery of at least 500 Wh ; a suspension fork will make the paths more comfortable. It's more versatile than a road bike, without being as heavy as an electric mountain bike. For long or hilly rides, aim for 625 Wh : the real range will depend on elevation gain, assistance level, your load and the heat, so don't rely solely on the figure announced by the manufacturer.

On the easy routes aroundAlberese, a hybrid bike is enough: the A7 route to the mouth of the Ombrone is about 5.2 km, and the Olive Grove road to Collelungo about 13 km. On the other hand, for steep or uneven trails, like the one to San Rabano, take a hardtail electric mountain bike with wider tires; a loaded hybrid bike may struggle there. If you rent, ask precisely about the type of route planned, the battery capacity and whether a charger is provided: "electric bike" does not guarantee the same equipment everywhere.
