I wonder if the cardboard is impregnated with epoxy or something.

And when it rains.....

I remember having cardboard furniture when I was an undergraduate student in London, but a cardboard bike is sort of cool

And when it rains.....

He rode it through water so there is some kind of resistance there. I presume he was dipping it into some kind of paraffin or something. right?

This is really sweet, but that is some seriously thick and strong cardboard, wonder where it comes from.

Of course, if he ships you one, in comes in a cardboard box.  That is like two for the price of one.

How much does the raw aluminum in a regular bike cost?

Don't get me wrong - its' friggin' awesome! He spent a lot of time testing and planning and producing - anyone can appreciate that!  However...I've never seen cardboard that thick in any box that I've seen and I've seen a lot of boxes....(that doesn't sound right...)
