Corebook says: "if you take damage that exceeds your durability is in danger of bleeding to death. They incur 1 additional damage point per Action Turn (20 per minute) or they die.
This means if you exceed your Durability Rating (DR) with this bleeding, the morf is useless or unrepairable?
Thanks in advance!

The morph dies if the bleed
The morph dies if the bleed damage reaches death rating yet, but you forgot the part which says "receives medical care or dies", so the damage is definitely repairable.
It would be weird if morphs which bled out were unrepairable when medical technology can regrow limbs and bodies.

You confuse 2 values.
You confuse 2 values. Durability (DUR) and Death Rating (DR). When morph reaches DR it is beyond repair. Medical technology notwithstanding. It is an bewuivalent of damaging all critical systems/organs and excessive body damage. The part about regrowing the body from the head should be corrected because it is a source for major inconsistency in the setting.
The place for regrowing body parts and miraculous healing is between DUR and DR.
EDIT:
What i said is only true for synthmorps. Biomorphs are apparently cockroaches. And can be regrown from their left nipple in a few weeks.
EDIT:
Houserule that shit.

Synths have an increased DR
Synths have an increased DR to make up for the fact that they're actually gone for good.
Biomorphs can be regrown from parts, but ego death may occur and once the biomorph is non-functional you aren't going to have a living person inside. If there is significant brain damage, you'll need a new morph.

DR is the point past which
DR is the point past which the morph is functionally destroyed and needs to be rebuilt. DUR is the point past which the morph is disabled and potentially on the way to destroyed, but can be repaired.
Even so, as long as there's no major (cyber/)brain damage, the morph can be rebuilt, Schlock Mercenary style, as long as you can get the head into a healing tank (for biomorphs) or the cyberbrain hasn't taken any damage (for a synth.)
One of my characters carried a vibroblade machete for the [i]express[/i] purpose of decapitating people, and nanobandages to slap on the stump so that could be a nonlethal way of very violently subduing them.
Unless the morph suffers brain death, I don't consider the ego dead, or call for continuity/alienation tests. Meaning that unless the eggs get scrambled, or a biomorph without medichines is allowed to bleed out, you can get them into a healing tank.
