CalfeeDesign Bamboo Bike

After Craig Calfee watched his dog try to gnaw through a piece of bamboo with no luck he decided to create a bamboo bike frame.  At first it was purely a publicity stunt but then he found that the bamboo withstood impact damage better than carbon fiber and was less than a pound heavier than a comparable carbon fiber frame.  The carbon fiber also absorbs road vibrations better than carbon fiber which allows bikers to ride longer.  Now the CalfeeDesign Bamboo Bike ($1,900-$4,500) have one multiple awards and are available for road or mountain in different frame styles with a ten year warranty.
