This greatly celebrated bike shop was founded just after the Second World War by cycle fanatics Stephen and Jean Maurice. The shop is still run today by their son and grand children. They have shipped their bikes all over the world as far as Australia and Bermuda.  It’s a real honour to have such a well respected shop as Woodrup Cycles on board.

We love the uniqueness of Porthcawl Bike Hire. A genuine shop with a real passion for what they do, it’s great to have them on board the VOLT dealership.

We first heard from this family run business when they added a couple of our e-trikes (VOLT Explorer) to their rental range. In two weeks time they’ll be receiving a couple of our greatly coveted Bigfoot models, where people can view, test ride and buy this fat tyre e-bike.  With this imminent arrival it seemed like a good time to find out just what makes the guys at Porthcawl Bike Hire tick!
