Greenbuild - Wood Bike Frame

Collinswood, an FSC wood supplier, drew a big crowd yesterday with their wood framed racing bike. The link to their own products appeared tenuous but that didn't stop the booth staff and nearly every passerby from ogling the wooden masterpiece.
Interestingly the bike actually works as a bike. The frame is hollow and made from three different woods to give it the proper strength, flexibility and look. (birch rear fork, maple tubes, cherry accents for a slick look)

This bike was hot. Now visit Collinswood to see what it is they do...
