Wadda you think?

I quite like it! Not the saddle or the bars so much, but still. Do you reckon bamboo located where it is will affect things much?
I did think this looks like it will break though...

If they made a BMX bike out of bamboo - would it be a grasshopper?

Since I can't think of anything witty to say, I'll simply state that I think it's an interesting and beautiful bike - a fantastic blend of craftmanship and engineering.0

I dont know if I like it or not. It does look good & I like the way it goes round the seat tube into the seat stays but I'm still not sure about itPain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.0

Looks similar to the design of the Volagi. No rear brake bridge - would that not make the back end prone to lateral flex?1985 Mercian King of Mercia - work in progress (Hah! Who am I kidding?)

Another unconventional bike that I'd say isn't particularly beautiful:

Agreed but it does remind me of the early wooden bikes from the olden daysPain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.0 -
I really like titanium bikes and I love the idea of bamboo bikes. But I find the combination of the two doesn't do it for me. I'd rather have a bamboo bike and a titanium bike.0
