New eco frame.

Pretty cool I think,the frame of this bike is made fully from renewable resorses - basicaly grow one in your backyard! With only a few handyman tools from Mitre 10 you can craft your own frame from scratch....although burnouts may take on a whole new meaning.

Would look nicer with moulded plywood fairings though.

considering THIS>>>>>> is made out of wood, i don't see why a bike can't be

There were several vintage cars with wooden chassis (and canvas body panels). haven't heard of a bike with a wooden frame (for real) but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

This has a wooden chassis.

We still get trailers coming in for WoFs with wooden frames and draw bars.On one WoF course where the instructor was going on all anal about trailer regs I asked ''what about wooden trailers?'' He just said ''They've been doing pretty good up to now'',then ignored the subject.Been in use for 60 years,strong stuff I'd say.

back in the late 1800's there was a wooden framed steam bike does that count? and quite a few early cars had wooden chassis and in some cases wooden and canvas coachwork, hence the panel van or "woody"
