Why?

  • Bamboo has a higher tensile strength than steel
  • Our designs maximise the natural stiffness of bamboo making amongst the stiffest frames out there
  • Bamboo is extremely absorbent of vibrations and bumps in the road & trail
  • Absorbing impact well, bamboo performs well for performance riding such as mountain biking
  • Bamboo tubes have extremely consistent properties from one to the next & so make an ideal natural material for high tech applications like bicycle frames
  • Aesthetically beautiful, each of our frames is unique due to the markings on bamboo
  • Using flax fibre composite lugs, our frames are constructed using natural materials wherever we can rather than man-made alternatives. This makes for great aesthetics & stronger frames
  • We use advanced jointing technology, working in conjunction with Oxford Brookes University
