  We numerically investigate the rigidity percolation transition in
two-dimensional flexible, random rod networks with freely rotating cross-links.
Near the transition, networks are dominated by bending modes and the elastic
modulii vanish with an exponent f=3.0\pm0.2, in contrast with central force
percolation which shares the same geometric exponents. This indicates that
universality for geometric quantities does not imply universality for elastic
ones. The implications of this result for actin-fiber networks is discussed.
