build your own bamboo bike! Cool Hunting says it best:
If Robinson Crusoe were to have a bike, today he would have made it at Bamboo Bikes Studio. The weekend workshop allows you to build your own bamboo dream bike, helping out Mother Nature while kitting yourself out with a sustainable, one-of-a-kind bicycle.
Bamboo Bikes’ mission is pretty simple. Their goal is to provide cyclists the experience of building their own ride from scratch, while also advancing sustainable development by financing bamboo bike factories in Africa and South America. The project provides real and long-term economic inputs while delivering an affordable, socially beneficial product back to their own communities.
