Ever since I built my first cargo bike and uploaded some pictures of that build to reddit, I've been getting many questions about the bike, how to make it and on cargo bikes in general. Since so many people seem to be interested in building this kind of bike, I've finally decided to put out a proper tutorial on how to build one. Even with a long video like this, it's impossible to include all the necessary information like measurements, so I also made a set of plans to cover all the numbers and theoretical stuff.
So this is a deviation from the video format I used to do so far and I'm interested to hear how the audience likes it. I'm considering making more videos like this that focus on teaching/explaining things more.

Thanks! I was surprised how many people were inspired by that and went through the effort of extracting the information from those pictures. I hadn't intended the post as a tutorial back then since I didn't expect people would like it so much they want to recreate it. And I also never wrote down any measurements back then.. so that's why I had planned to do this video for a long time, we need more cargo bikes in the world :)

What a nice project log! Thanks a lot Phil. I just started working at my old art academy and there they have all the tools to build a project like this. Wood workshop, metal workshop, CNC mill to mill wooden parts.. I can just mill out jigs to hold the metal parts in place. Then move everything over to the metal workshop and simply assemble the bike there using all of the jigs. I might consider this project as it's really something that challenges me and I like a challenge :) Thanks for the inspiration! I know it's very hard work to besides doing such a project, also document every step in a sensible way.

Great work ! great plans, thank you so much for it ! I did mine for about 410€, 100 hours. I was a complete beginner in MMA welding. I spent a long time doing the welding. I had some difficulties for finding the 1”1/8 steal fork before I realized it was BMX standard. Another problem I had : I didn't manage to extract the bottom bracket, which was very seized up. I was affraid welding without removing it would burn the grease or even weld the ball bearings. Hopefully it is still rolling and no particular problem until now. And I did a small mistake with the steering tubes dimension (too thin) so I've been tinkering to make it fit. My advice : choose a good donor bike, I lose money buying new gearing, and other new bike parts.

@PhilVandelay 3 жыл бұрын
Nice! Also good to hear some feedback on cost and build time, 400 bucks and 100 hours is about what I would guess as well for an average build. Looks like you also learned a lot of new stuff which I think is a big pro with taking on a project like this. Seized bottom brackets are a pretty common problem on older frames, I would generally suggest to disassemble any donor frame completely before you use it to find potential problems. Maybe you can still get it out though, it's usually just a problem of finding a way to apply enough torque

How an automatically every step,.thought and action get me on the path when I can action though, wishes into sketches, designs and actual builds... Breathe....

Since these questions come up a lot: - The final weight of the whole bike is about 30 Kilograms in my case. Obviously this will differ slightly between builds depending on parts and materials. - No you don't need a motor to ride it, the effort required isn't that much higher than a normal bike unless you're going uphill with lots of cargo. - Yes it's easy to ride, you get used to the handling after a few minutes.

@BenMitro

I was thinking the same thing. One can strengthen the aluminium by judicious use of steel flat bar on either side of square hollow aluminium to get the strength only in the plane that it is required to keep the whole thing light. I was thinking that the flat bar can be attached to the aluminium hollow with stainless bolts and spacers to minimise galvanic corrosion.

Personally I don't have a need for such a bike, but what an ingenious solution for so many. Bloody awesome job Phil and a very well articulated voice over that explained everything perfectly.

Can anyone think of a way it would be possible to use 2"x1" instead of the 60mm×60mm in the plans? I have a ton of 2"x1" laying around that I would love to put to use over buying a new piece of 20' of steel.

Thank you for that intro explaining that you don't NEED a full blown workshop with thousands of dollars worth of tools. I've seen so many negative comments in DIY videos along the lines of "BS, it's only a cheap build if you have tool x, y, and z and they're expensive". As you said, a cheap welder and angle grinder or even hacksaw are the bare minimum along with some basic hand tools - under $200 to get started and they're useful around the house anyway. Not to mention the people complaining about cost of materials. Council roadside cleanups are your friend, as are give-away pages on places like Gumtree, Craigslist etc. If you're inventive, you can adapt all sorts of things that others consider scrap :D As for the build, that big gap under the donor bike looks like it would be a great space for a 4 stroke motor for people living in places it's still legal and want some help powering along with a heavy load. Or a great space for an extra large DIY lithium ion battery pack if you want to go electric. Great design. Relatively simple to build but looks very robust (welding skill dependant) and versatile.

It's such a useful idea. A trailer can do some of this quite well. This style of Dutch or Danish Cargo Bike is very flexible. When I was a kid in the 60s, I saw many of them in Denmark carrying crates of beer LOL. I even saw an old one here in the UK. With modern Electric assistance they would be very practical even for people like me.
