It's a bamboo framed bicycle...
I don't even have the words to describe it's coolness...
but Joe does...
Actually, one of our staff rides a Calfee (not the bamboo version) and another staff had mumbled something about "the frame could be bamboo," but I quickly pushed that comment out of my brain thinking it crazy talk. Now my brain is thinking of other cool things that could be made out of bamboo.
All I came up with is pan flute. Already made. Damn.
On a side note, I showed the previously pictured bike to said Calfee-riding staff member and even though he said his Calfee didn't have a bamboo frame, he was, in fact, looking for a local bamboo distributor. Apparently he was in the process of putting an addition on his house and was attempting bamboo gutters for the roof.
Did I tell you I love this firm?
Other cool bamboo mods:
A Bamboo Laptop...
A Bamboo Helmet...
Eco-Plastic Bamboo Car Trim...
A Bathroom Sink....A VERY expensive Bamboo DVD Player...
Bamboo Charcoal...
Bamboo Speakers...
Bamboo Yarn...
And even bath towels...
The possibilities are endless and still...all I can think of is pan flute.
Damn you Gheorghe Zamfir and your melodic genius!!!
