Sustainable bicycles to spin into Ghana

leave a comment »

Bamboo  has many purposes, but bicycle designer Craig Calfee has decided to use it to make lightweight bicycles. They are a bit pricy, but they are durable, strong, and lightweight.

Calfee is planning to teach craftsmen in Ghana how to produce these bikes so that they can make a living using their abundant bamboo.
