  1. I’ve always loved the feeling of hitting a trail with a good machine underneath me. The roads just don’t have that same kind of adrenaline. But in a large way it also lets me take a break from my everyday. Because of this, I always want to have a mountain bike in my life, even if it means I can only ride it in the mountains once a month.

  2. I have an open question to all the Hubbers out there: Do you think there is room for bamboo bikes on the SA cycling stage? There are some very good arguments for bamboo bikes, but yet we don't see them around our races, on training rides or in the streets parked outside nice coffee bars. How do you think this observation is to be explained? Looking forward to your words of wisdom and insight. CB

  4. Bamboo poles were cut from a forrest. The poles were then cut to the rough length needed for the various sections. The poles were then washed and the nodes punctured to avoid the tubes exploding during heat treatment. The poles were then heat treated, this is done three times first to remove the waxy layer then second to remove the chlorophyl layer and a lot of the moisture, i let them stand for about a week before i did the third treatment, this is to remove more moisture and give the poles a nice colour..

When finished it will be a mudguard on an unusual bicycle made of bamboo. German student Kalla and his flatmate Sabine Metzger are sending the bike around the world in aid of a charity drinking water project.
  6. Hey guys While surfing the net a bit I came across these bamboo framed bikes. Would you ride and feel safe on one? I am not too sure I would. http://www.calfeedesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Calfee-Bamboo-Pro-ENVE-Smart-System-and-Hemp-BarStem-1024x681.jpg http://www.calfeedesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Bamboo-MTB-1024x681.jpg
