Bamboo Biker Boys

 
 

It all started when...

Established by James and Ian in 2010, The Bamboo Bicycle Club helps people who are passionate about cycling to design and build their own bamboo bicycles.

As two bike-riding engineers themselves, The Bamboo Biker Boys were inspired by their own experiments in bamboo frame-building and decided to create a cycling community to help others build their own custom cycles that were beautiful, robust and sustainable.

We at Intraspectrum wanted to document their pioneering work by filming one of their weekly classes at their workshop in East London’s Hackney Wick, before capturing the Bamboo Bike Club alumni as they cycled through the streets of London with their favourite bamboo bikes.
