I don't know about that...horn is actually extremely tough, and flexible. The lugs are particularly interesting. I'm going to take a close look at this bike when I see it.

That is cool! Mosh, a company for BMX products had a line that looked like wood. It was cool as well, but the real thing is even better.

The Calfee cow horn and bamboo lugged bike is definitely on the list of 'must see' items. Fuxxbox, do you have a link for the Mosh bikes?

That Calfee is very, very cool. I wouldn't want it for myself but it showcases the passion and aesthetic ideas of Mr. Calfee. Awesome
