© spielplatz[/caption] WOOD.b is an urban bike made in France. The choice of the wood and the steel for the frame design was very important for us. We used high-quality materials to create an exclusive bike in its design, but not in its use.A portion of the frame is constructed using ash plywood, forming the architectural structure to which are then added high-quality Columbus brand steel (stays and fork) compatible with standard bicycle components.

The interest of wood and steel is to be recyclable materials. The use of ash plywood allows a better solidity in regard to massive wood while keeping a certain flexibility. The ash is also a very common wood in Europe, what is an advantage in term of production and environmental impact.

Components used are standard bicycle components that meet European quality standards allowing for easy at-home repair or maintenance by your local bicycle shop.

The differences are in the choice of the group of speeds and braking. This permits a complete customization of the bike.
