Bamboo Bike Build

[veggieburger]

It is time - this is the year, the year of the bamboo cyclocross frame. There are plenty of great online references, but has anyone here given it a whirl?

My biggest concern is attaching the rear dropouts...the joints can be lashed, epoxied, mitered, but those rear dropouts...not sure how to get them on there securely.

You timing is good. I addressed this general topic today - with a newer school twist.

With a bit more genetic tinkering, you should be able to grow the frame right out of the ground. THAT'S the future~

The page for Panda mentions the cross and mtb are on the way but nothing more.
