So we're looking at properties around between 1/20th-1/18th of 4130 cromoly, but a density quite a lot lower.
My biggest concern is that in order to get enough material to mimic the the properties of steel, you'd basically be riding a big solid block of frozen sausages with a headset and and presfit BB :D

Not sure there are many structural engineers specializing in the mechanical properties of frozen meat products..
But if you come across the yield strength and young's modulus of a frozen sausage it'd be quite easy to do the calculations.
