MY CUSTOM BUILT MTB DRIFT TRICYCLE IS RIDICULOUS!

  • My custom built MTB drift tricycle is ridiculous! I modify my insane mountain bike Canyon trike into the ultimate drift machine using huge plastic pipes and get as sideways as possible as fast as possible! Would you send it?
    The drift tricycle is back for 2023 and this time I modify my Canyon Stitched 1080 trike and fit it with plastic wheels to get it sliding like crazy in perfect urban freeride locations! The base of the bike is the Canyon Stitched 360 dirt jump bike but with the addition of the tricycle back end it became the sickest bike ever! We start the video with some mellow drifts in a car park after fitting the plastic pipes just to see if it would work before drastically ramping up the excitement by going faster and bigger at each new spot. For the finale I decide to fit the paramotor to my back to see if it would actually work to push me along and do endless slides, will it work though?
    I hope you enjoy the video!

    Yes! Drift trike to the max, love it-- can't wait for the next version! Your idea of putting plastic blocks under the tires reminded me of something my bmx buddy used to do-- call it the Dewey slide-- full speed skid hitting the back brake right as you approach a small square of cardboard laying on the ground, sending you into a super long skid if you find the right spot :) Was always a classic move when we were riding behind shopping centers with good sturdy cardboard for us to use

    Delrin! Great high density plastic that people use in industry for wear surfaces. If you want a single slippy surface, you could just mount a big lump of the stuff to a rim in one spot. To get it around would be harder and I’d advise contracting a fab shop to make that for you. They could just mount a bunch of little blocks then turn them down into one round. It’d cost a fortune, but they’d last a while and work a treat, I think. Else you can maybe do what my dad and I did for my big wheel as a kid. Big round of PVC tubing of the right inner diameter, cut to desired width plus an inch or so either side. Then, cut 2 more rings, take a notch out of each, and kinda compress them around the tyre like a snap ring. Glue in place with PVC cement, and boom. Retained wither side, nice and round, and mine lasted years on a Green Machine getting whaled on.

    Nice one Sam! I cant wait to see the future! Not sure about another kind of plastic pipe big enough for those wheels, but you could try thicker cuts of the corrugated pipe, they might be less wobbly as they get thicker. Also, you could screw little blocks of wood into the pipe on either side of the tires in multiple places around them to lock the wheels into place.

    If you are after plastic/nylon tyres for the trike to use for drifting, 'perhaps' use the 'blue' plastic/nylon water pipe that they use for the water main feed to domestic supplies.
    You can 'probably' cut the pipe to size and then using an internal coupler with a resin based adhesive to join the pipe ends together.
    I'm pretty sure this could work mate, you might want to seek further information on 'how to glue the pipe using an internal insert (length of insert needs to be about 25mm.
    Using the 'blue plastic/nylon watermain feed pipe, you should be able to create a tyre that actually fits within the rim of the wheel (more secure).

    @SamPilgrim. Try wrapping the wheels with melted plastic.
    Collect a lot of plastic bottles and other household trash. Sort it by plastic type (many YT videos available). Melt it in an oven and kneed it into long strips that you drape over the wheels while still hot, have the various strips overlapping. Include the top-end of the spokes for grip.

      Pvc bends easy too and flies well. Perhaps a long strip of Pvc hot bent around the rim. Wrap it up until the rim bed is filled them glue a wider strip to it and wrap it around a few times for a thick layer

    Hi Sam,
    You can try finding a CNC specialist or someone with a big enough 3D printer to fit to your specifications.
    An alternative is to create a wheel mold for an acrylic pour. The second option might be better BECUZ you can DIY.

    If you get a router and the right bit you could carve a half circle grove in the piping for the tire to sit in and it would probably stay on straight. It would only take a few seconds per each plastic tire sliver and you could probably cut them thinner since the tire is now a skinny road tire.
