got that right, man! it's pretty hard to find a worse welder than me. i'd be starving if i had to survive on this for a living!

Nice

Inspirational! Just what I needed to start my own recycled Christiania style bike. I remember seeing them in Copenhagen for the first time and just being blown away. Thanks for sharing. Much love from Australia

Wuauuuuu bery smart man tanks for your adia

congratulations,, you are awesome job... yess. dammmm from venezuela

With that steering pivot, all you had to do was to brace it in three directions, from the lowest point to the bottom of cargo box. The bracing would be two side bracings and one front bracing, that would have held that pivot . You used a an unbraced Colum effect which pits a lot of lad on the base but if a column is braced as a high communication mast normally is then that would have held at any load. The braces would be able to take compression and tension so they would be pipes. and no need to weld them just crew them in. at about 45 degrees will do. .

If every weld did that much good where it is needed this would be a better world. Respect!

Beau travail, merci !

Thumbs up to you and your kids. I think that considering what you have to work with, you seem to find a way to make it work, I admire that, not everyone has the money or the top of the line tools to get the job done, so us do it yourselfers make things work the best way we can, it may brake, but we fix it, or engineer it better. I also have sent many bicycles and parts to Africa and am happy to see bicycles in use. Keep up the good work.

Nice demo - thank you - good to see you having a bash with the welding. May I ask if you actually used bearings on the pivot tube.? I am considering building a modular trike myself. I think they are brilliant. I daresay people like myself have gleaned a great deal from observing your build. Very generous !

Very nice. I'd probably use my everlast mig welder if I attempted this project for myself.

Wish my kids would build bikes with me! COOL!

What an awesome video! Great quality/production, excellent storytelling, super informative. Helping people in need with cheap, clean, simple transportation. You captured your family, your community --your life-- beautify. Inspirational on every level, thanks for your efforts.

Aptera.....cool

ficou perfeito parabéns felicidade amigo

Also on the christiana type trikes, the rear pivot is angled to help make the steering less twitchy

top marks for effort mate , keep trying you will get better at it

Make it easier for them, I can see six rear gears, make them operational, it's easy. I would also try to find crank arm with three speeds. That bike could go pretty much everywhere you want it to go. But nice job, I'm gathering ideas for something like this.

Given how old this is, my comment is for other viewers..Welding on hardened steel like bearing races doesn't work, it cracks. What I did was use the entire forks of a bike and weld the forks to the metal, not just the pivot. hope that makes sense.

parabens cara voce e um mestre das invencoes.

Молодец👍руки с правильного места

Legal a iniciativa!!!!

Very nice

My inspiration for this bike was the Christiania style bikes that you see roaming around Copenhagen - they have two wheels in the front that swivel. I also might add a rear cargo rack to increase the capacity.

Those are some smart kids :)

Fantastic helpers, GOD BLESS.

Dude, sick build.. Hows it working out? Do you still have it? This video was published like 5 years ago lol

That's awesome, haha! Love it!

Two thumbs up for building something useful from scrap. Well done, considering what you had available to work with. I think the cargo platform might be more useful as a trailer that attaches to the seat base tube on a "normal" bicycle with a goose-neck type hitch.

a very wonderful video

How did the final mod hold up? how about switching the head tube pivot for a car wheel hub set up? I've seen it done on swing away rear tire holders, held up even with the weight. Also great to see bikes being put to use, I worked with a collective in Chicago and we used to send containers full out to africa. looks like awesome fun!

Dang I wuna see more vids like this... cool stuff guys.. can only improve from the first prototype....

It's still kicking around doing the job, but I prefer my newest build - a long tail cargo.

Thsnk you as i am going to be building a few my self. And this helps me look at things to not do and things to try. Thank you for your trys and headaches.

Great Job! :)

All my respect for the hard work. i think you should have put the tire closer to the steering bars I think there is too much weight on the center and nothing there to reinforce it.

Amazing..,bro,.....

how is it going? is it working good now? good job!

Nice bro

Knowlege for every humain in the earth

Gap yoq 👍

Muito bom. show

e ai jovem já resolveu o problema deste pino central?

Specially with the older cargo bikes the bottom side of the steering pin has a support strip to the sides of the loading area. The joint has to take the big lever force between the passenger and the cargo.

eh?you're cutting with hacksaws and handsaws?what happened to the effortless two second job of using metal cutting chopsaws and angle grinders?guillotines?reciprocating saws? and so forth?

ficou bom rssssss valeu

good thing hes wearing hes steel toe boots and leather gloves 👍

nice work

O BOM E USAR GARFO DE BEICICLETA DE CARGA ANTIGA OU DESSAS DE AMORTECEDOR NOVOS MAIS TEM QUE USAR UMA SOLDA MIG OU TIG POIS E MAIS RESISTENTE E NO CASO DE LEVAR PESOE BOM FAZER COMO VOCE FEZ POR UM PARAFUSO DE REFORÇO POR DENTRO MESMO ASIM SUPORTA TRANCOS MAIS UMA PAREDE MAIS GROSSA NOS METALONS ABAIXO VAI DAR MAIS RESISTENCIA AO PROJETO E DURABILIDADE MAIS FICOU LEGAL

😂😂xe đẹp lắm Anh ơi ❤️❤️

good kreytew maind

Good job 👊

like it!

dose kid a very good

you're the man

nice bro🤔 you're the man

Cool

There's a problem. The contact point between the cargo and bicycle body should be flat enough to tolerate weight and steering so you have to make a flat ball bearing base ..the is the only solution to avoid breaking of welding at contact point .

Very naice

But that’s very good ingenious

gud job god bless

Nice performance

good job!!!

Keep supporting #bhuchansingh

me gusta su trabajo,soy de chile yo hago triciclos que le valla bien hermano buscame en youtube fabrica de triciclos y bicicletas

Best

yu cann add bering.. on bucket.. can strong...

grandeeeeeeeeeeeee

I really want a Christiana Box Bike but I don't have $2800 to spare. I'd love to try to build one myself. Is yours still doing the job?

A uma esmirilhadeira ia ajudar muito em

Ты молодец, veri good

Show 👍👍

,,,,,,,,GOOD JOB,,,,,,,

Much easier to just make a side-car. No mods to the bike, just place the 3rd tire in the correct spot. No added weight to the steering. Add a pillion seat and a single pannier (saddle-bag)

Kreatif sekali

Considering where you are you have quite the styling shop !! You weld like me but what the hell eh ? What were your plans ??

Brasileiros, reajam!

Projeto falido infelizmente... mas gostei muito do vídeo.

Good morning can you give me driving how can I make home tricycle for cargo

Factory onde bike tome womam model

Tem que ser atraz, para puxar ! Empurrada não presta

Use a plate from a over stuffed swivel chair

Sir Can u give the sketch of these?

Hello, thanks for sharing this idea. I tried to produce something close to this and I find out that the rider almost fall off sideways when they do a sharp turn. How did you solve this problem?

👍👍👍👍👍👍

Prefeito

Будь здоров!

Me inspiras, pero a la vez me haces sentir que he sido un inutil.

Sujeitinho ruim de serviço aonde esta quebrando tem que ter 2 travessões 1 em cima outro em baixo ok.

Hello, I'm really interest in to the project of building cargo bike in Ivory Cost. Can we tall about how you can help me on this project? Looking forward to your answer.

bonjour je travail avec des velos porteur pour des personnes handicapés, et au niveau de l'axe sous le plateau mobile il y a un amortisseur de direction (style hydraulique) posé a partir de l'axe fixe jusqu'au plateau mobile. (super machine). Hello I work with bikes carrier for people handicapped persons, and in Level of the axis under the mobile tray(plateau) there is a shock absorber of Direction(Management) ( hydraulic put style) has to leave the fixed axis up to the mobile tray(plateau). ( Great machine).

Watermelons dude!

We call it is "becak".

Very nice. Pls share the dimensions and your contacts pls

basico y al punto!

Your nice baby

No offence but you need to learn how to weld because well first off your not holding a beed that tacking won't hold very good second stick arc thats only for heavy metal you need. Like a flux core mig it would be alot better and you can do alot more with it.. But good vid i dont want to sound mean just try to get a better welder

We called becak
