It woodn’t rust, wood it?

And a bit of epoxy wood fix it. 🙂

I hear teak performs better than oak.

thats barking mad

Another manufacturer branching out into a new niche?

Is that a beech bike? Or is it Willow Koerbers?

Saw this outside my local a couple of weeks ago.

Had me completely bamboozled…

Alot of the locals came out to have a look at it, it was complete pandamonium…

Can’t get any more exclusive than being a member of a niche splinter group!

🙂

I certainly would knot buy one. You would look a right sap on it.
Sorry. 🙂

you’d definetely be going against the grain if you did. Although if it snapped you’d know what the root cause was.

i think it may lumber a bit on climbs?

yew wood probably get bored of it sapping your energy on the climbs.

I wood need to Spruce up on my skilz before riding one of these.

I wood be Pine-ing for gears.

Not the sort of bike I’d pine for.

That’s a relatively new design.
You can tell by the rings.

the older design got the chop

not the root I’d take.

best yet! 😀

What tyres Fir…?

Suits Yew sir.

Wood bike yes. That one no

The others look better

Surely it should Eboney for the dark side though

apparently those bamboo bikes have very similar characteristics to carbon……….really? 😯

I wonder how durable they are. Do they need a Laurel looking after?

If I had a bamboo bike I’d just “stick” it in the shed after each ride and hope for the best

Good to see manufacturers branching out and using alternative materials, but you wood need to be bark ing mad to get one.

Wood dew get one….?
