I built a single speed road bike over the winter of 2017/18. If you follow either of the links kindly provided above, it will take you to the thread where I documented the whole build. The bike it still going really well and I absolutely love it. It's a real joy to ride and above all else it's completely unique and built by me. I keep meaning to update my build thread with a long term report, but suffice to say, I've had no problems with it at all. You'll love building and owning something as unique as a Bamboo recumbent.

Have you seen Kate Rawles journey as well? She cycled the length of South America using a bike built at the Bamboo Bicycle club, showing just how tough these bikes can be.
