"We hired an electric bike today and it was an enjoyable and comfortable ride. i rode the bike with my family riding their own bikes. . we rode up to the snails pace cafe for a lovely cream tea, and then back again. we had no problems and the electric bike made the ride effortless. the hire came with a hat included, and an emergency kit in case of punctures. the bike was well maintained and needed no attention! definitely recommend this bike shop." - TripAdvisor
