A greener bicycle!

Think about it, Bamboo is probably the most perfect material for making a bicycle. It’s light, it has a high strength-to-weight ratio, it’s abundant, and most importantly, it’s eco-friendly! Couple this with carbon fiber, and you have one hella strong bicycle! Plus, it gives the bike a really unusually rustic yet beautifully contemporary aesthetic! That, my friend, is a win right there!
