- Full Description
-
High performance, sustainable bicycle manufacturer is looking for bike shops and other partners. The company aims to identify a select number of partners, who are interested in our award winning, sustainably manufactured bicycles.
The company develops high performing, award winning and aesthetically appealing bikes – hand-built out of bamboo in own workshop in Uganda. The bikes attract riders who want to ride a premium bicycle with a positive social and environmental impact. Riders come from all corners of the cycling world.
The frames of the bicycles are made in Uganda, and the bikes are then assembled in Sweden. The frames, which are made by natural composite materials, leave a minimal climate footprint.
Our aim is to improve the environment, one bicycle at a time, and contribute to job creation as well as the bicycle sport in Uganda.
The company is highly committed to its mission: The mission to improve the cycling experience while helping people out of poverty and reducing carbon emissions. - Advantages and Innovations
-
It took nearly four years from the founders of the company to develop the first bicycle and at the moment there are three different models available. The company has achieved a balance between strength and flexibility in frames, and coupled this with high-end components into a bicycle that is pure joy to ride.
Or as put by die Welt (15/06/2022): “It rides a high league and is an eye-catcher with an individual look, which combines the special riding characteristics of a bamboo frame with the ecological bonus.”
Results show a 93% reduction in net greenhouse gas emissions from this bicycle frame compared to an aluminium alternative.
The net emissions from one frame is only 1,9 kg of CO2e, compared to a traditional aluminium bicycle frame, which produces 28,6 kgCO2e. - Stage of Development
