Our purpose
We are a passionate bamboo bicycle company on a mission to inspire epic travels and unique experiences, empowering well-being and sustainable mobility.
Our journey
We are two siblings that always dreamed of working together on an inspiring project. But it never crossed our minds that this opportunity would happen while living and working in China in 2018.
There, we got dazzled with bamboo, its astonishing benefits and all the possibilities to build anything with this beautiful and sustainable material. When we first discovered bamboo bicycles, we became amazed by their unique appearance, beautiful design, light weight and comfort to ride. Instantly, we fell in love with the idea of crafting our own bamboo bikes and being the first bike builders of these wonderful bikes in our home country – Portugal.
Inspired by the initiatives of INBAR to promote the economic, social and environmental benefits of these power plants, we decided to put our hands to work and bring to life our bamboo bike company.
Right after, we built our first prototype. Excited with the results, we challenged ourselves. We built three bamboo bicycles to ride the famous Camino de Santiago and had an unforgettable adventure, together with our younger brother in 2019.
Since then, we’ve been crafting and refining our products with heart and soul to bring you the best bamboo bicycles nature can give.
