What a blast, 7 of us had the hard tail e-bikes. Great routes, a short distance from the hire shop. Bikes were ready and fully charged. Went up the hills as quick as we went down them, effortless and so easy to use. Thanks

H. W.

Really easy to use website for booking the bikes. There is plenty of parking on site and all bikes were ready on time, with good instructions on usage. Harry is extremely friendly and helpful and gave us useful advice on routes. We got a puncture on one of the bikes half way round, luckily spotted at a cafe stop, and Harry dealt with it really efficiently, coming out as soon as possible and swapping out the wheel. The cycling itself was great, on lovely tracks and small lanes through the forest with fab views of the mountains from certain places. The bikes were amazing, really easy and fun to ride and fantastic going up hill! Our top tip would be to take a small rucksack to carry water as the bikes themselves don't have a bottle holder. All in all we had a great time and would recommend Snowdonia Bikes to anyone wanting a fun family activity.

G. K.

Excellent service, very knowledgeable staff, nothing is too much trouble. Good knowledge of bikes and the local trails. I am a regular and will keep coming back.

D. T.

Booked for a three hour hire, and on arrival had full tuition on the controls by Harry, who gave us some ideas as to where we could go. We where out for about two and a half hours and had a great ride, the first time we had used E bikes and they brilliant on the hills. I would highly recommend Snowdonia Bikes and will definitely be be using them again, thanks Harry for the experience and the professional service.

D. K.

We hired dual shock ebikes for the Marin trail and had a great time. The bikes worked perfectly and the staff really helpful.

J. C.

Truly excellent service. The bikes are in first class condition and even though I've never ridden an ebike before there were no problems. My son and I hired the bikes to go exploring the forest fire trails and they were perfect for this, making light work of any of the hills we came across. In the end we were looking for hills to climb so we could have fun coming back down. The hire terms on the web site ask you not to take the bikes on any of the red routes and I think this is a fair request. I would definitely hire again from here.

V. H.

Absolutely fantastic and easy going experience. Harry himself a very experienced cyclist and easy to talk to. On handover of bikes, brief on characteristics, opportunity to ride around park if you required, brief on actions on, then off you go. Harry more than happy to discuss suitable routes. The E MTB is great and more than suits your needs, no matter your level. The cost for what you get in my opinion is well up there. I took my wife on her first 5 hour ride around the trails of Betws and she loved the trails and the bike. On return, hand bikes back and good informal chat with Harry. Outstanding throughout and the owner, one of life’s genuine nice cycling guys.

Harry, and Otto the puppy, provided first class customer service and great technical advice. First time using any e bikes, out for 5 - 6 hours and did around 45km! Great location, free parking (able to fit a Ford campervan) and very knowledgeable. Overall 10/10! We will be back soon!

T. D.

We had such a wonderful experience!!! Harry the shop owner was super helpful and the bikes we hired were in great condition. The trail we took had stunning view and so many lovely sheep!! I highly recommend everyone to try it out cz it definitely worth the price and you can experience so much. Also the e-bike just did most of the job for you so you can enjoy the view on the way!!!! Please try it!! 👌❤️👍🏻

D. P.

Couldn’t recommend enough lovely guy brilliant bikes at fair prices will 100 percent use again thank you!!

p. b.

Well equipped business. Bikes were ready for us when we went to collect. A quick brief on the does and don’ts. We were given local route information and sent on our way. Then spent 3 hours exploring the local area in the forest in case the weather turned. With a 16 year old in tow, we had a great experience and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Snowdonia Bikes

M. B.

Great location and routes to choose from, Harry was very knowledgeable and helpful. We rode E-bike HT, still had 4-5 bars of battery left at the end. We chose the route 'Lakes, Views and stop in Betws', great views! Cycled around Lake Crafnant, well worth it for views and interesting route. Good fast downhill sections on gravel.

G. S.

Excellent eMountain hire service, £40 for 3 hours was great value, the bikes are brilliant, powerful and easy to use. Superb instruction and ideas for where to go. Will definitely be hiring again, might research our route a bit better next time 🤣. Best value rental in the Conwy Valley. 10 out of 10. I fully recommend Snowdonia Bikes. Booking online is wonderfully simple too👍

G. H.

The bikes were in very good order and we were given plenty of information on the operation of the bikes and the and the area we were visiting. Perhaps more importantly Harry was very helpful and accommodating,we had to change our plans at the last minute and it was no problem. We were very impressed.

R. H.

Excellent service, Harry could not have been more helpful, advising us about routes etc. It was our first time using Electric Mountain Bikes, they were excellent. Making climbs manageable and fun. We did a 16 mile route on the bikes, stopping off for lunch by Capel Curig. Would highly recommend!!

J. M.

The bikes were excellent. Harry was very helpful in providing routes to go and try and how to familiarise yourself to the e-bikes if you haven’t ridden them before. Really good value for money and some incredible views!

S. G.

Would really recommend Snowdonia bikes to people. Hired an emtb today and had such a great time. From making the booking to taking the bike back the staff member was fantastic and very knowledgeable. The bike was in really good condition. Fantastic shop. You wont be disappointed if you use Snowdonia bikes. Diolch

S. L.

Really friendly service (thanks Harry and Otto), easy to book online and collect a bike. The location is just excellent for getting up into Gwydir Forest with its many miles of tracks to enjoy. Plenty of parking at the shop and a nice Cafe. Will be back!

L. S.

Unreal service. The routes around the area are unbelievable and the bikes were great. Had an issue with one of the bikes which was just one of those things, and within 10mins Snowdonia Bikes has come out and offered us another bike. Worth every penny 🤜🏻👍🏻

E. M.

Great service and bikes! We were given lots of useful information about the trails which are really close to the shop. Highly recommended

C. W.

Having never ridden an ebike prior to this we were a little apprehensive as to what to expect. Harry talked us through how to ride them and provided a good route to take. We loved every minute of the experience and would defiantly hire from him again but next time for longer.

D. C.

Thanks Harry for facilitating a superb day out. This was my first experience of an electric bike ...... I'm a convert! I was amazed at the distance we could cover in such specacular scenery ..... ending the day pleasantly tired with a great sense of well being. We will be back! ... All the gain without the pain

S. F.

Harry was super helpful in helping us setting up, deciding the right trail to embark and was very accommodating with our time schedule. Would recommend this to anyone visiting and want a great first time experience mountain biking. Some of the uphill routes I simply cannot imagine doing without the extra thrust from E bikes.

S. M.

Brilliant day out on e-bikes, fair rental prices and Harry was really helpful with route recommendations. Will definitely be back. See you soon Harry and Otto. One love Stacey and Craig

S. K.

Very professional, great value for money, very polite, very helpful ( gave us routes to go on an app) Overall great experience and would highly recommend. Will be back again, thanks for having us.

A. K.

Absolute brilliant. Great service, I made a mistake on my original booking and they sorted it for me promptly. We arrived and they were attentive, helped with the route and showed how to use the bikes. No issues on return.. will use many time against

Amazing day on the electric bikes , super fun and amazing views . All the bikes were in great condition . Would highly recommend this experience to everyone :) Thanks Harry For helping us adjust the bikes , teaching us to use the bikes and helping us find The best route .

These guys are legends. I was on a long day ride from Loggerheads and my bike was suffering with a dry chain. After a lovely coffee at the café I saw the guys from the bike hire shop and asked if they had any spare chain lube. Not only did they immediately offer to supply some oil, one of them popped to his car to get a bottle of the specific wax dry-lube already on my chain. after 35 miles of a squeaky chain, I'd have been happy with any old engine oil! Its freely given help like this that restores faith in genuine kind-heartedness. I resumed my ride with no further chain squeak troubles and had a great day on my bike. Thanks gents!

G. W.

Really enjoyed hiring the ebike from Harry at Snowdonia Bikes for the day. He was very helpful with various routes available on Komoot to choose from. The bike was in excellent condition too. I'll be back!

C. W.

Very welcoming and great service. We had a fabulous circular route cycle from Llanrwst taking in Lake Crafnant, Geirionydd, Betws y Coed and Llyn Elsi. We were able to this with ease using Snowdonia Bikes. Highly recommend this as a great way to explore beautiful Snowdonia.

M. H.

Great service, great bikes, amazing tracks. Had a great time.

S. S.

What a great place . Owner was so friendly, and easy to get along with. Bikes are clean, great condition and practically new. Had a wonderful day with my son and our little dog.. thank you so much guys.. will come again very soon 😃😃😃

C. O.

We had a fantastic time on the bikes this weekend! The rental process was simple, the bikes were great, and seeing Otto the shop puppy was an added bonus :-)

P. E.

It is very easy to book a bike on the website. The shop is in an ideal location for every kind of trail. I wanted to try out an e-bike which I found amazing. Because going up steep hills is so much easier, I was able to ride much further. Harry was extremely helpful both on the phone beforehand and on the day. Definitely recommend booking a bike whether solo, group or family. You will have a great time.

B. B.

Great advice and knowledge of the trails in the area, including the weather climate towards Snowdon. Looking forward to coming back for a ride out.

J. H.

Excellent service, very helpful and knowledgeable. Recommended a beautiful route for us to cycle and it did not disappoint! Would definitely rent from here again.

I. H.

Really friendly host with modern e-bikes. Helped advise best route for our group. Highly recommended.

S. G.

Really great service. Very helpful with routes and info on the bikes etc. Will be coming back!

C. C.

Absolutely spot on. We took a group with mixed ability all severely hungover and had a blast of a day. Staff were more than helpful, couldn’t have asked for more.

C. M. &. E.

Great day out with our pals. Cycled into Betws Y Coed for some lunch and got in some great trails.

T. L.

Smashing ebikes. Red route was amazing, highly recommended

C. E.

Fanyastic - great guy, easy to book and change - great bikes. Amazing service.

A.

Amazing! Best day of our honeymoon. We hired some more ebikes at our next location after enjoying it so much but have to say the comfort and power of the bikes from Snowdonia Bikes, as well as the beautiful location and trails round the area just made is so perfect and we will be back soon!

S. T.

My wife & I rented a couple of e-bikes from Snowdonia Bikes in Llanrwst yesterday and did a route around Gwydyr Forest, visiting some lakes, up the mountains and downhill into Betws, where we had a great coffee and cakes at Alpine Tea & Coffee Room, by the train station. The booking online was seamless, Harry was very helpful when we called and he was great in person when we arrived. Explained to us how to get the most of our e-bikes, gave us our bikes, helmets, gloves and he even helped us plan our route on Komoot app and gave us suggestions on where to go, where not to go depending on weather conditions and where to stop for lunch. We even had the chance to play a bit with Otto, his playful Cocker Spaniel! We totally recommend doing a bike ride in any of the routes in Gwydyr Forest and using the e-bikes from Snowdonia Bikes in Llanrwst. The scenery is spectacular and the e-bikes are amazing on the climbs when you need the extra turbo kick to get up the mountains. We will come back!

T. L.

What a wonderful experience! Harry is very helpful. The bike is just awesome, can't imagine do the route without it. And the route around the place is amazing. Definitely will come back again and again.

J. D.

What an amazing experience from start to finish! Would highly recommend! We downloaded the Komoot app which gave us a sat nav for our chosen route which Harry very kindly showed us how to use and gave us a phone holder to sit on the handle bar meaning we never missed a turning! Riding up hills was a doddle with the Ebikes and made the whole experience so relaxing! Never going on a normal bike again!

E. S.

Great place! Hired an enduro e-bike to do the trails around Gwydir Mawr and wasn't disappointed. Good bikes and helpful and friendly staff. Would gladly come back.

G. B.

Great fun. Very helpful staff. Really appreciated the extra effort he went through to make sure the bike worked for me.
