If it's made of oak, it can have quite a weight behind

except that it's clearly not...

Possibly repost, but:

don't think so..
nice rack! and bars..

that's what I thought. Everyone I know who's had a go at left hand drive has had NO problems though.

Conveniently I can't find the blog at the moment, but it documented two guys cycling across somewhere South-East Asia. One of the two had a LHD fixed gear and the pedal would fall out every 50 miles or so...

Let me find it....

Yeah I don't debate the pedal thing, that's fine. You can't do it with normal track cranks.BMX style cranks and a splined chainring (or LHD cranks) and you're good to go.
We were talking about the rear hub issues.

except that it's clearly not...

Jokes? Not clearly, not from the first picture - that can look like oak..

But it's bamboo alright. I know, that it's flexible and very strong, but I'm not sure how heavy it actually would be in that case...

it has disks on each rear.

certainly would inspire me to ride in one over the dirty looking ones around London

In my mind this is the best candidate for a thread closer so far. My size and i can´t think of ways to make it any better except getting rid of the rim decals.

thread closer? no way. the pink one was much much nicer

Needs double straps

What spoils that frame are the welds, but it's a personal thing
Anyway, I like Ray's little pinkish GT much more.

• get it a couple of sizes bigger & turn the seat clamp the other way?

It looks like the bodywork is made with panels of bamboo plywood. That's going to be a big material in the next decade, I reckon. Bamboo is going to get used in amazing ways once people get more into doing Gougeon-brothers-style epoxy engineering with it. I had a go myself a while ago and it seemed promising although getting hold of the right raw materials is pretty much impossible in the UK.
I'm not sure if the frame geometry is quite right for really getting your weight over the pedals with a couple of bulky passengers, though, even though it looks very chopper-ish and cool...
