Maybe no frame at all and parts held in place by magnets. ?
Magnets would become too heavy since normal magnets aren't strong enough to hold much especially going over bumps in the street, so they would have to be electromagnets which means a battery for power and now we're back to using those damn batteries and relying on them not to go dead on a ride and dropping all our components onto the road.
