@harveyzone Definitely made of wood. Looks as if it wouldn't be flexible enough to give a comfortable ride, - why weren't bikes always made of wood if it works? I haven't heard of cardboard bikes, but again can't believe it would provide a comfortable, or safe, ride. Perhaps I'm just inflexible and don't like the idea of something that's that different. Perhaps we should try making one and try the idea out Ask Pete if he's got time to make a prototype.
