BAMBOOGO
Bamboo bicycles from Bern, Switzerland. Selected bamboo, bio resin joints, skilled assembly. Every frame carries a story no two bicycles can share, and every one of them is crafted by hand.
Nature's engineering,
perfected by hand.
A BAMBOOGO bamboo bicycle frame is built from selected bamboo culms, chosen for their diameter, wall thickness and fibre density. Each tube is treated, cured and joined using a bio-resin process.
The result is a frame with a distinctive material character, a ride feel shaped by the way bamboo behaves, and a story that starts long before anyone rides it. Crafted by hand.
Six reasons
it grows on you.
Lightweight
Bamboo's natural hollow structure keeps a bamboo bicycle frame light.
Natural Comfort
The fibre structure of bamboo can absorb road vibration, contributing to a smoother ride feel.
Renewable Material
Bamboo is a rapidly growing natural material with interesting possibilities for bicycle-frame construction.
One of One
No two bamboo grains are identical, so every BAMBOOGO frame carries its own natural character.
Skilled Assembly
Each frame is treated, cured and sealed, and every bicycle is assembled by hand in the workshop.
Craftsmanship
A bamboo frame brings visible craftsmanship into a product category dominated by industrial manufacturing.
Sustainable,
without the slogans.
We would rather describe what is actually happening than decorate it. BAMBOOGO is a bamboo bicycle project in Bern, Switzerland, where sustainable mobility means something very concrete: another material choice in the bicycle market, built and assembled by hand, with the skill and time that requires.
Bamboo is a renewable natural material, and it brings visible craftsmanship into a product category dominated by industrial manufacturing. We do not publish environmental figures we cannot substantiate. What exists today, what is in development and what we aim for is kept separate.
What exists today
Handbuilt bamboo bicycles, Swiss bicycle expertise and development bicycles in the workshop.
What is in development
Road, gravel, mountain and cargo concepts being refined toward production models.
What we are aiming for
Sustainable mobility in Switzerland: another material choice, more skilled assembly, and skills development around bamboo bicycle building.
From selection
to saddle.
Each step pairs artisanal craft with careful material selection. Development bicycles and prototypes are being refined toward production models.
Select
Bamboo culms are selected for diameter, wall thickness and fibre density.
Treat
Culms are treated, cured and prepared for frame construction.
Assemble
The frame is joined with bio resin, and every joint is finished by hand.
Finish
Each frame is finished, sealed and prepared for riding.
Every frame tells a story
The bicycles
in development.

Carry More, Carry a Story
A bamboo bicycle built to carry more: for everyday transport, family journeys and work.
Real development bicycles and prototypes can be shown, and are kept clearly separate from final production models. Final weight, price, geometry, warranty and component specifications will be published once confirmed.
Future Concept
BAMBOOGO
Wheelchair.
A future concept exploring bamboo as a natural material for mobility beyond cycling. The BAMBOOGO Wheelchair is separate from the current bicycle range and is not under active development at this stage.
