A Huge Thank you to Shimano for Supporting this Project Bike!

This article is a continuation of our Bamboo Bicycle Club Build Kit Series – Part OnePart Two

“Bamboo Bicycle Club was founded in 2012. Over the years we have grown from a workshop teaching frame building to also provide kits that are built all over the world. Ours is a club is like no other. Our success comes directly from our collaboration with our builders. Every bamboo bicycle is built by a customer, and our names and reputations ride with each build.” – https://bamboobicycleclub.org
