And according to Renovo:<\/p>\n

Wood has unique engineering properties that deliver superior ride quality and durability compared to man-made materials, and…it’s sustainable, unlike other common frame materials. When the right wood is combined with an array of advanced technologies, it becomes a high performance material that will forever change your understanding of ‘wood.’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"Wooden<\/a><\/p>\n

Renovo say that wood has superior damping ability, is light, stiff and durable. In short you get a smooth ride, excellent power transfer, superior handling and a bike that will last.<\/p>\n

Plus wood makes your bike a one-of-a-kind handcrafted masterpiece.<\/p>\n

The frames are significantly heavier than today’s super light frames, coming in at around 4-5 lbs, so not your best option if you do a lot of climbing.<\/p>\n

Renovo offer a wide range of bikes, from commuter, road, mountain, touring and even time trial\/triathlon. Prices vary by type, model and options, but prices start around $4,800 for a road bike.<\/p>\n
