You can get a taste of the test bike days from these posts on the TredzBlog

If you're new to the concept; test days are perfect to test ride that new bike you’ve been reading about for months. We usually have an awesome fleet of full sus Giant, Scott and Specialized mountain bikes which will pretty much float anyone’s boat but we also plan on inviting other brands to join us as well. We’ll post more about that closer to the applicable dates.

SHOP TESTS
Not available on the demo dates? We also let our fleet out via our bike shops on non test days. We run it slightly differently in that we charge £25 for a 48 hour period. We then turn this into a voucher to be used in our Swansea or Cardiff store. Whether that’s used against a new bike or a load of inner tubes is entirely up to you (even give it to Uncle John or Aunt Joan if they’ll get more use).

Call us 01792 702555 to arrange a one-off test and collect from store.

This isn’t an around-the-car-park affair. We want you to test the bikes in the environment they were designed for and ride a shortened version of the Penhydd trail (missing Desolation and Hidden Valley). The route is cut back to approx 12km which will take most riders between 40 and 80 minutes.

See the trail in our Afan Argoed video.

The Cwmcarn trail details will follow shortly.

BIKE SETUP
We’ll tune the suspension to suit you: your riding style, your size and weight. This will help improve your experience of full suspension. By all means bring your pedals along and we’ll fit them for you. That goes for saddles as well.

If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your stead or have always ridden a hardtail and wanted the chance to see what all the fuss is about, then this is definitely a day for you.
