If anyone is looking for a gift to buy for me, I'll take one of Calfee's bamboo commuter bikes. Any one of them will do. From their website:
This is not just a cool bike. It is appropriate for everyday use and for racing. The vibration damping is a performance advantage on longer rides. Each frame is built to order and every frame is a unique. Tubes are selected for the weight of the rider. The geometry of the frame can be any of our usual geometries: Pro, Tri or Cross. Custom frames can also be made.
Bamboo is also a sustainable material which means these bikes are green as well!
