great ride

Review:
despite all the climbs being fire road, the single track makes up for it. a great mix, rock gardens to flowy sections a great mix. and no matter what anyone says you have to ride CYB at some point

BEST IN WALES

Review:
This place is simply amazing, its very tech when ridden fast which is always best way!!! Climbs are out numbered by the downhills by far, rocky climbs are fun and challenging and fire roads give chance for a chat and breather. New false teeth section 10 out of 10, uncle feser brill as always, dream time, begining of the end, able, slated, the list goes on. its simply brilliant. Hardtail/full sus, whichever you have you will love this place. We drive 270 miles in one day to do this trip and it is well well worth the trip!!!!!!!

I feel robbed

Review:
Cant agree more with all of the comments. Lots of fire road with no where near enough reward. Coed y brenin gets a lot of hype as it supposedly has 6 trails available but I've done Tarw, MBR and the Dragons back and between those 3 i think I've covered pretty much all of the 6 trails there as they all seem to follow one another more often than not and the quality just doen't match the expectation. We also rode Afan Forest W2 trail and Penmachno loop one in the same weekend and these 2 trails were both of a complete different standard. I've done coed y brinin and wont be going back. On a plus note though the guys in the bike shop are legendary and can fix anything.

Awesome!

Review:
I would rank this up there with Glentress- it's got Everything; technical rocky bits, swooping fast bits (which could use bigger berms), fast rocky bits, whoops and berms, drop offs...
there's some pretty mean climbs too, so eat some breakfast before you set off, but yeah it's ace. if you're at CyB, do this (or one of the variants that shares most of the sections).

Dissapointing

Review:
This is a well maintained track of that there is no doubt but at what cost?
All the downhills never have enough flow for MY type of riding although I can understand other views of it being technical and enjoyable but I require a good rewarding fast flowing downhill challenge after boring fire road climbs which occur on this route!
Sorry but not a patch on llandegla but this is only my opinion and as stated I love fast single track not rocky stop starts
