An organisation recently conducted a bike race event in India that showcased several local products and innovations. The event featured bicycles made with traditional Indian craftsmanship, including handcrafted frames using indigenous materials like bamboo and locally sourced steel.
Participants in the race used bicycles equipped with accessories manufactured by small-scale Indian industries, such as leather saddles from Kanpur, bicycle bells from Ludhiana, and tires produced in local rubber factories. The event also promoted traditional Indian snacks and refreshments made from local ingredients for the riders and spectators.
This initiative helped highlight the quality and durability of Indian-made bicycle components while supporting local artisans and manufacturers. The organisation plans to make this an annual event to continue promoting indigenous products and sustainable transportation solutions. |
