BAMBOO BICYCLES. BAMBOO BICYCLES. TX7"E nave just opened up a shipment of ' * the above, which aro entirely new to the Cyclists of Wellington. A somewhat popular fallacy exists that "Bamboo," as a primary factor in the construction of machines requiring at times extreme strain, is an innovation hardly equal to the test. There is no oooasion to theorise on the question, as soientifio tests have indubitably demonstrated the faofc that Bamboo, weight for weight, is many times stronger than stoel. In.the East it is used for bridges, scaffolding poles, pillars for roofs of houses, masts for ships, and for similar purposes where strength and reliability are absolutely essential. These Cyoles are not built entirely of Bamboo, but a combination of Bamboo, Steel, and Aluminium, the resultant machine being for strength, lightness, and life, far superior to the best machines of the most celebrated makers, English or American. The shipment we have just landed comprises Roadsters, Road - Racers, and Ladies' Ctclsb ; they aro thoroughly up-to-date, and are strictly Moderate in Frioe. * We Invite Inspection.
