Toulouse, France – May 2024 – The Bamboo Bicycle Club, a pioneer in sustainable bicycle manufacturing and DIY frame building, is thrilled to announce the opening of its new workshop in Toulouse, France. This new location, led by renowned Bamboo Frame Builder Guillaume Denneulin, marks a significant step in the Club’s mission to revolutionise bicycle manufacturing through locally-made production.

Building Locally, Expanding Globally

Founded in London, the Bamboo Bicycle Club has consistently been at the forefront of utilising bamboo—a sustainable and high-performance material—for bicycle frames. The Toulouse workshop embodies the Club’s commitment to expanding its global presence, empowering individuals to build their own bespoke bamboo bicycles locally.

James Marr, co-founder of the Bamboo Bicycle Club, expressed his excitement about the new venture: "Our dedication to local production and sustainable practices is now firmly established in Toulouse, where we aim to replicate the success of our London and Amersfoort workshops. Under the expert guidance of Guillaume Denneulin, we look forward to offering the finest bamboo bike building experience and fostering a community of knowledge-sharing."
