Unique handmade bamboo bike stolen last weekend from a garage in Camden along with many other bikes. This one was was mine, hand made by me using a home build kit from Bamboo Bicycle Club in 2017
Size 55cm
Frame: Bamboo
Forks: Willier carbon Black
Campag groupset (Veloce and Mirage)
Axiom Streamliner pannier rack
Brooks saddle and bar tape
Marathon Plus tyres 700 x 28
Double sided spd/flat pedals
This is a one of a kind bike, there isn't another frame like this one due to the nature of the build.
Distinguishing features:
Bamboo
Some Brazilian tape around the tubes where the Hemp/Resin ends and bamboo begins, they are 'fita do senhor do bonfim' and look like the last picture. There are different colour tape over the frame.
There is no front mech
Although there's a bike register sticker on the seat post, the police refused to register it due to no frame number
The photo with the brooks saddle and tape is the most current one.
Please help me find it.
Thanks,
Suami
PS. many others were stolen along with this bike, but they belonged to Camden Council which were used regularly for cycle training children and adults, community projects and free loans to residents and businesses
