Default Cellulose stronger than steel. Wood pulp stronger than CF.

"Wood pulp extract stronger than carbon fiber or Kevlar"

Prepared properly, CNCs are stronger and stiffer than
Kevlar or carbon fibers...

"Biodegradable fibers as strong as steel made from wood cellulose"
http://www.gizmag.com/steel-strong-fibers-wood-cellulose/32432/
...claim to have developed a way to make cellulose fibers
stronger than steel on a strength-to-weight basis.

Soon everyone will be riding on wood pulp or cellulose fiber bicycles.
