Tim van Woudenberg

Partner workshop · Amersfoort, the Netherlands

One weekend in London. Then a workshop of his own.

Tim saw our bamboo race bike at the Design Museum and built his first frame on a London weekend course in 2016.

Based in Amersfoort, the Netherlands

“Not strong enough? I've seen an 80-metre bamboo scaffold.”

How Tim got here.

In 2019 he trained with us in London and set up Bamboo Bicycle Club Amersfoort, an independent partner workshop. He teaches small groups to build their own frames, in Dutch.

He keeps pushing the craft. His own gravel bike uses a split-bamboo top tube.
