InsideEVs: Check Out Bamboo Bicycle Club's Unique E-Cargo Bike
In October 2023, InsideEVs — one of the world's most widely read electric-vehicle publications — covered Bamboo Bicycle Club's e-cargo bike, looking beyond batteries to the wider question of how sustainable mobility is actually built.
What InsideEVs reported
The article, written by Enrico Punsalang and published on 27 October 2023, described our e-cargo bike's construction and approach:
- Materials: the frame is made from Guadua bamboo, flax fibre and recycled aluminium, chosen to reduce the bike's carbon footprint.
- Flat-pack delivery: like our other kits, it ships flat-packed and can be assembled with a set of basic tools.
- Load capacity: a claimed carrying capacity of 250 kg.
- Ride quality: the bamboo's natural elasticity gives vibration absorption, for improved comfort and cargo protection.
The piece also noted our charitable workshops in Kenya, Rwanda and Ethiopia, where we teach people to build their own bamboo bicycles.
