More bicycles, fewer cars. Thats not the only mantra of James Moore, Al Roback and Josh Armstrong. They go the extra mile when it comes to sustainability at their Grass Frames bike studio on Main.
The three use their combined skills woodworking, carpentry, computer drafting, fibreglass boat building, to name a few to develop and design their bamboo bike frames. Each bike takes about 40 hours to complete and is custom-made by hand from the most eco-friendly materials available: 100 per cent sustainably grown bamboo from California, plant-based epoxy, waterborne varnish and raw hemp fabric for hand-wrapping.
Bikes are available directly from the studio but the team is very excited about a new distribution channel. They are currently working with NOW condo developments (NowDevelopments.com) to offer a bicycle to the buyers of each suite. We have designed our marketing to hit audiences that otherwise feel out of their element in a bike shop. We want everyone on bicycles.
