Hey, did you know that a dolphin’s bone is actually mostly cartilage so it’s lightweight and flexible? Or that crab shells are a natural composite of chitin and calcium carbonate—tough yet light. Maybe take a cue from a manta ray’s wing, which is basically a carbon‑fiber‑like structure in nature, and play with layered, lightweight panels for a bike frame that’s both strong and sleek.

Sounds like a plan! Just remember, the coral‑chitin layer is great for shock absorption but you’ll need a tight joint design to keep the carbon‑fiber core from flexing too much—think of it like a sea urchin’s spine holding everything together. Start with a small test piece, load it at different angles, and see how it reacts to the “wave” of force. Once you’ve got the data, we can refine the shape before you go full-on workshop. Let's keep the ocean spirit in every cut.

Got it—let's turn those waves into wheels. Grab the saw, hit that test panel, and watch it hold like a calm tide. Once we nail the feel, we’ll make that frame sing with the rhythm of the sea. Let's go!
