A great place to to get you on a motorbike
Brilliant teaching methods, good location, bikes are very well maintained. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. I used initially for my CBT. I stayed on the 125 for 14 months then went back for the big bike taster. After that I done my DAS through Phoenix. It was very easy to book everything was clear and easy. A massive shout out to Julian, amazing instructor and a credit to the company.

Jon was an absolutely fantastic instructor. Very patient, very encouraging. He was incredibly conscious of the fact we were CBT'ing on the hottest day of the year in 42 degree heat and allowed for lots of water breaks and took the classroom sessions in the shade rather than the hot classroom. Highly recommend Phoenix and Jon for completing your CBT. Hopefully will get him for when I book in for my full license

Completed my CBT at Cwmbran. The staff were all friendly especially our instructor Dylan who was great at explaining the manoeuvres, where I was going wrong and how I could improve. All round very supportive. I had a great day and would highly recommend them!!
CBT at Cwmbrân
Recently passed my CBT at Cwmbrân. Before I started I’d never rode a motorbike before, my instructor (Dylan - big shout out) was so thorough and explained everything so well. He was also very good when we got to the actually motorbike riding and eased my nerves. Would recommend this training course to everyone.

Great team
Great team! Very easy to learn from and enthusiastic about teaching future bike riders. Loved every second of the training.
Definitely recommend to anyone.
With my little experience with…
With my little experience with motocross I thought I’d have an easy time getting my cbt. It was far from that, the trainers explained everything so well that it was easy to pick up. Not only did they tell me where I went wrong in different scenarios but they were so understanding that it was the most comfortable I could have been for a first time road user. During the road ride they gave clear communications and kept everything clean and simple. I can’t wait to do my module 1 because of these guys. Would greatly recommend
Great day had by myself
Great day had by myself, and Ciaran who was my instructor couldn’t have made it any better. Excellent teaching and very patient. They also had all the available gear to lend for the day!
Excellent staff
The members of staff at the cwmbran branch were fantastic and put my very nervous 16yr old daughter at ease straight away. I would thoroughly recommend doing your cbt or lessons with them

Direct access Passed
Direct access ---- Julian was an excellent instructor throughout my training. He struck the perfect balance between guidance and independence—giving clear instructions while also trusting me to ride and develop my own confidence without micromanaging.
What really stood out was how he provided feedback at the right moments. It never felt overwhelming, and it actually put me at ease, helping me enjoy the ride even while focusing on all the rules required for Mod 1 and Mod 2. Thanks to his approach, I was able to pass both tests.
Julian is patient, professional, and genuinely kind. He creates a relaxed learning environment, always smiling and giving you the space you need to improve. I honestly can’t thank him enough for the experience and support.
