Build a Bamboo Bike

Yes, really!

Where: bamboobicycleclub.org

Tired of riding around town on a bike made of steel, aluminium or carbon fibre? Then perhaps it’s time to give bamboo a go. Bamboo Bicycle Club have been selling bamboo bikes to Londoners for a few years now and while buying a bike from them is great, what’s even greater is buying a kit to make your own.

Either book a workshop with them where you can learn the complete art to bamboo frame building and walk away with your own bike at the end of it (around £500) or buy a home build kit and put that garage/spare room/pavement outside your flat to good use. Expensive, but what price can you put on building your own bike from scratch?
