Bamboo Bike Materials

I emailed Bamboo Bicycle Studio to see if I could get already heat treated bamboo tubes from them which they agreed to, $75/bike. The tube diameters for the front triangle they have are between 36 and 50mm, the tube diameters they have for chain and seat-stays are 16 to 24mm. As for the metal pieces (HT, BB, and dropouts) I'm going to order them from Paragon Machine Works. The hemp I'll be purchasing from Hemp Traders. I have yet to figure out what adhesive I'll be using.
