I've just found out that weight for weight, bone is 6 times stronger than steel. That's even better strength/weight ratio than Titanium, so I wonder when they're gonna make bike parts out of it?

I can imagine it now...

"Can't do the trackday because I broke my swingarm in an off at Donny and my bike will be in plaster for another 6 weeks" :lol:

Nature is a wonderful thing with a protracted development (evolution) cycle. :)
