No. No no no. These things look like that boat trailer that Red Green built using “those 2 bicycles you stole from in front of the 7 – 11 plus 1 roll of duct tape”. Or Red’s customized bike seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skfnxkixBp4&feature=related
This dude is trying to use what is essentially free raw materials plus nearly free third world labour to produce a product which likely would not survive our climate. His cost for the frame he wants to sell online at $500 is quite likely in the order of $3 and worth every cent of that $3. The picture looks like 7 el-cheapo lengths of bamboo held together with tape and resin. Can you say exploitation? Perhaps his 3rd world workers can produce something useful for riding around in a 3rd world village but the thought of riding one down Queen Street in rush hour is scary as hell.

Well, isnt that clever! And innovative. Plus it’s so ‘green’..bamboo grows back quickly.
I have seen these somewhere! National Geographic or something?
No way!!! You’ve been bamboozled…;-)
