Pandas love bamboo, maybe you will too!

Bamboo wrapped in carbon fiber? Sounds like one expensive pair of chopsticks! I'm actually talking about Boo bicycles newest lineup consisting of a road and cyclocross frame, and yes, to make you non 26ers happy, a 29er complete with carbon fiber belt drive. Frames only will run you about $3k, yikes! Check out the pics here and the Boo Bicycles website. Gorgeous looking bikes I might say.

  1. Hey Biking Fools, thanks for noticing Boo Bicycles. I'm the guy that builds them. I've been biking since I was small, and have been living in Asia and working with bamboo almost 20 years. Ask Nick Frey where you can see on in the skin!

  3. Hey Fellas, love your work! Looks like your bikes are getting noticed and placing in races, congrats! I had never heard of your bikes until I was on Bikerumor today. Bicycle boutiques are far and few here in Nebraska, mostly just the big names show up at the races and trails. Thanks for swinging by my blog and leaving a comment. Keep building those beautiful bikes and good luck to both of you!
