7 August 2022. Giorgio Fouarge \u2014 alias Wood World Tour \u2014 embarked on a world tour by bicycle. His bike of choice: Zafi No. 16.<\/p>\n

Giorgio\u2019s journey was never about breaking records. It was about showcasing an alternative philosophy of travel. The timber used for his frame comes from an orchard just outside Brussels. To travel the world on local soil; to demonstrate that a bike can be at once technical, sustainable, and profoundly tied to its provenance. <\/p>\n

Built for longevity.
His Zafi Roots was outfitted for the long road ahead:<\/p>\n
