Bamboo Mountain bike...

So how cool is this:



Craig Calfee designed the bamboo bike as a publicity stunt in 1995, Craig's bamboo errand bike evolves into a well-tested new model for the general public. 12 Bamboo bikes had been built for employees, relatives and friends. The feedback on the smooth ride quality was too good to ignore, so they decided to go into production.

You can check out Craig's site Here.

Talk about making the most out of nature. It is too bad that the price tag is $2700.
