Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What An Experience. Yay for Mimmo!
We were all a little rusty on a bike and had never used an E-Bike so were a little apprehensive about doing a bike ride. Mimmo was a great coach and incredibly patient as 8 women asked a lot of questions.
He did a tour with us and was incredibly encouraging, very kind, great fun and quite frankly I don't think I (and a few others) could have achieved what we did without him.
When you spend some time with him and understand his passion, his energy and his sense of fun, you can totally understand why The Bikes is #1 in Trip Advisor. Its down to him and his excellent customer service. I will leave Puglia with much more confidence on a bike and some great memories. That is down to Mimmo (90%), and the views (10%).
Thank you Mimmo.

The owner (Mimmo) was a pleasure to deal with from 1st enquiry. Prebooked the Ridley carbon road bike with Di2 and disc brakes.....top class. Mimmo had great advice for routes and had the bike setup perfectly for my dimensions. Cant recommend "The Bikes" enough. Ciao e grazie Mimmo

At times you meet wonderful people who have customer service dialled in and do so with an elegance only time brings. Mimmo, who runs this little gem of a company is one such person. Bikes great, guiding great, conversations great. Can't recommend him more highly.

I want to tell you: thank you. Thank you for the beautiful review you wrote me.
You probably understood that I do this job with my heart and not just for the money. It's very important for me to put my clients, sorry, my friends, in a good situation and that helps me a lot to learn and it doesn't matter if people are rich and vip or normal people; everyone gives me incredible experiences.
You will have a special position in my head and I am very happy to have you as a friend.

Would definitely recommend them!

Mimmo was fantastic, rented us great carbon bikes of high quality, delivered them at our hotel Borgo Egnazia and guided us for two days. He showed us all the most beautiful parts of the region. He is a great rider and will adapt to the type of rider you are. We recommend him without any hesitation!I’m

Mimmo of The Bikes in Fasano is a true gent - interrupted his ride and opened his shop up on a bank holiday to rent me a bike. He has a great selection of road bikes at very reasonable prices. Would highly recommend The Bikes for quality and friendly service.

THE BIKES in central Fasano is not just a bike shop. It is owned by the most friendly, helpful, thoughtful cyclist, Mimmo. We both rented high end carbon road bikes to explore the area for 5 days.
Mimmo was always available to help if we had mechanical, flats or other. He also delivered the bikes to our Monopoli hotel, then drove us to the train station when finished with the bikes. Thank you so much Mimmo!
Mimmo organizes bike tours which sound super fun with this man who knows the area so well. After all, he rides his bike regularly a mere 200 km during his lunch break - just because he loves bikes! Wow.
I can’t recommend The Bikes in Fasano enough. You’ll get exceptional service here!

We had an excellent holiday cycling around Puglia thanks to Mimmo. We were very impressed with the road bikes we hired, Mimmo was great at communicating with us before we left England, and really helpful and accommodating once we got to Puglia. Excellent service that we would definitely use again. A very reliable company.
