What amazing service from Uli and Christoff! And quality of bikes that exceeded all my expectations! 3 days, average of 100kms per day and 1500 - 2000m elevation on technical terrain was no problem at all for these bikes! I had the best time and would highly recommend Cape E-lion if you are looking for a reliable E-bike to rent. And 5 star service!

This was our first trip on eBikes and we needed all plans to fall in place seamlessly. The Lion team did not disappoint! From the initial briefing call and subsequent WhatsApp arrangements to the perfectly timed delivery and collection in Sea Point, it was all perfectly executed. Well done and thank you!

Big shoutout to Uli and the crew at Lion E-Bike Rentals for a top-tier experience! Hosting a friend from abroad, we secured a pair of bikes to discover Cape Point's natural wonders. Uli's insights were spot-on, and his flexibility to test the bikes beforehand was a huge plus. On the day, we were greeted with two impeccable bikes that made our journey through the reserve nothing short of extraordinary. The combination of their stellar service, superb bikes, and the beauty of nature made our day unforgettable. Would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Uli was amazing! We wanted to do a self-guided tour of some of the wine farms in Constantia. He was very friendly, organised and helpful. His communication is excellent and he listened very carefully to what we wanted, making helpful suggestions.
His bikes are in excellent condition and very comfortable.
At the end of our wine tour he even offered to pick up our bikes without charge, patiently waiting for us to finish our wine tasting!!
Such personal service! Thank you, Uli!!

It was a fantastic experience! Christoph was very helpful with his special must sees. The hybrid e-bike was a 2022 model with a strong engine. Don’t miss the ride from Hout Bay over Chapman’s Peak to noordhoek.

Uli provided us with an excellent tour of the Constatia/Tokai forest trails. The views were amazing and thanks to the e-bike, the ride was challenging but not overwhelming. We really appreciated Uli providing us with options throughout the tour to ensure we got the most our of the ride. I would definitely recommend Cape Lion eRides to anyone wanting to explore the Cape’s scenery!

If you are wanting a local to show you the best mountain bike trails around Cape Town, then you have come to right place. This is my second time eMTB with Cape Lion Erides. Bikes are in good condition. My guide Udi, is really great and strong rider. If you want a tougher ride, with best views of Cape Town, I can recommend to ride around the whole of Table Mountain, 50km of pure bliss.

Wow, this was such fun! We have our own Ebikes in Kenya and ride every weekend. Having done it before, we wanted to bike Chapman's Peak and back again as it's such an amazing ride, with fantastic views. Cape Lion's 'Avalanche' bikes were great. I took a medium and my husband a large. Cape Lion E-rides are so well located in Hout Bay to head off on rides. We did Chapman's Peak Drive and then upto Cape Point Vineyard (only open at Midday for wine/lunch) then Jakes Restaurant. If you are into biking this is an absolute must. What a fantastic way to get out and about and explore the scenery and be in fresh ocean air. They can also arrange mountain e-bikes around the Constantia area and can meet you to drop off-pick up bikes. Cape Town is made for bikers, hikers and runners. Highly recommend this outfit and will use them again next year.

We did a 3 day gravel bike tour in George. Cape Lion E-Rides was amazing and Uli Bachmann was fantastic to deal with. Everything went smoothly from collecting the bike to delivery back to him. I would highly recommend Cape Lion E-Rides to explore all the Western Cape has to offer.
