Bamboo bicycle & Circle of Life Adventure

How did Obee come about

​​I knew that obee bicycle was going to be my life mission after the Circle of life journey. From the highest snow covered mountain passes of Central Asia to the scorching deserts of China, my first self-crafted bamboo bicycle carried me through the toughest terrain in the world for 6,103km.

The faces of countless villagers and curious children shared the joy, nodding their heads as they learned about the science behind the bamboo. As an engineer, I wanted to convey the beauty and mindful freedom that comes from a sustainable mode of transport.

Each of my bamboo frames takes thirty eight hours of craftsmanship, using processes that I have refined over a number of expeditions and tested in some of the harshest conditions in the world. Bamboo bicycles, for me, are a product of pure passion.
