Location:
Dwenase, Eastern Region of Ghana

Craig and Ben, getting the Tour bikes ready.

Dwenase is a village of about 2,500 people situated 2.5 kilometers from the main north-south highway of Ghana called the Accra-Kumasi road.

Workshop environment:
Ben’s shop is right in the center of Dwenase. It’s a small storefront with enough space for himself and two helpers to make frames and build bikes.
Ben Interview
Background:
Ben found Bamboosero when he was at a crossroads in his life. Pondering his options in the village which, at the time felt like few, he sought his chance at becoming a Bamboosero to no abandon. Since his initial exposure to Bamboosero Ben has seized any and every opportunity to attain further bicycle related training be it in frame building, mechanics, or bike touring/guiding.

Through his Bamboosero frame sales he plans to pay back his loan and pay for his last two years of school. Support Ben and his efforts to pursue his dreams by buying a frame from him!
