Bamboo Cycle c.1896/98

A machine from natural “tubes” - from bamboo.  The idea was first put into practice by the English  Bamboo Cycle Co. (1894), whose model weighed only 11 kg.  In 1895, the Austrian firm of Grundner und Lemisch in Klagenfurt also began to make bamboo bicycles – the material was imported from Shanghai. It is difficult to find information for this machine. We thing that this machine was built in England probably.
