bamboo is tuffer than you seem to think, you can crash a bike like this without shattering it. and you use bamboo instead of metal, because of the vibration dampening. plus, its cool

[charlenecarter60]

[ohsk8an]

[TheTeslanova]

[DieWolfen]

All I see is a waste of a good bike. Whats the point of replacing metal with bamboo?

Unsafe at any speed. Chopped a normal bike to make artbike.

¿Can you tell me which type (species) of bamboo is the one that worked best for you??

[salmansaifulla]

hi can we use Araldite insted of epoxy for the joints

[mkc1hnohowen]

black hemp twine and resin used for fiberglass. I would wrap a couple of layer of twine then resin, then another layer so the resin would soak in.

[n0y0x]

what are your joints made of?

[appapo3]

I just bought and old bike at a garage for the same purpose.I to want also to upgrade components.

Wow. That's amazing. Did you get the plans from somewhere or just sort of wing it? Where did you get your bamboo? How much does the bike weigh now with the bamboo frame?
