"held together with lugs made from a hemp epoxy composite; long strips of hemp fiber soaked in epoxy that dry to create tough and durable lugs"

Should I read that as the epoxy is made from hemp, or its merely a composite of epoxy and hemp?

I don't really care how green it is, I want one! If it wasn't for the rubbish exchange rate I think I'd want one enough to get one - as it is I'll have to carefully check bank balance first.

how green is it really- not much demand for recycled bamboo nowadays.

But it is a nice looking machine. I'd want a few test rides before I parted with my cash though.
