Morning light hits the bike racks outside Komazawa as the guide tightens a helmet strap and the city exhales—a mix of diesel, coffee, and green park air. Pedaling away from crowded intersections, you'll trade neon facades for riverside cycleways and narrow neighborhood lanes, passing small shrines, convenience stores, and the low-rise factories that mark Tokyo’s peripheral neighborhoods.
