That's awesome... I love when people push the limits of engineering.

How 'bout a bike made of pasta now?

I dont imagine the front rim will last long with the rim brake, pretty neat though.

I guess the bit where he puts the fish shaped piece under water shows he waterproofs it?

and it's probably more than just a veneer, but if it's not, and maybe it got scratched, just like paint gets scratched off a metal frame bike, then maybe it might go all soggy around that scratch. Just saying....
