I was with you up to this part. Anyone savvy enough to take on a DIY Bamboo Bike project in a place where Bamboo is indigenous can probably scrounge all the components you mention in this post. In the previous one, i.e. dropouts and such, those would have to be cut from a donor frame with a torch and that might be beyond practical.
