Compact Cargo Bike / Cycletruck
VloĆŸit

- This Mini cargo bike was a bit of an experiment, I wanted to practice welding aluminum and also try out if widely available alloys would be strong enough for a cargo frame. So I picked a pretty old MTB frame for this and converted the front for a 20" fork and added a removable cargo rack as well as disc brake mounts.
The tubing I used is AL-6060 because I can't get my hands on high strength alloys (yet.) I use 5356 filler wire and I suspect the frame is 6061 but I can't verify it. I don't do any heat treatment. I have used this bike for a month, it's strong enough to carry an adult in front and I haven't had any issues with cracking. The handling is super snappy!

The video is hypnotic. Love the no talking concept.

@Rob M Then, you should watch the DiResta channel
Being able to store the bike standing on the luggage rack is an excellent idea for saving space or performing maintenance on the tyres and drivetrain.
Watching you work on this is truly therapeutic...
This is a work of art! Amazing bike and an amazing video. Good job!
Dude! That's pretty impressive build!
Super gemacht! Great videos!!
One of the most handsome cycletruck buildsi have seen. Great video . Great design. Hope you make more videos for us thanks
Thanks! Yes there's more on the way :)
Stem and Bars are spot on!
What a killer project! Looks awesome.
Bravo bravo !
TrĂšs trĂšs beau boulot.
Un travail de vrai professionnel.

Huge dude... Congratulations đđđ
Fantastic, Phil !!!
Work of Art
Amazing work! Love it!
Very fine work!! Looks sooo good đ
I fricken love the sound of machines during timelapse.
really nice paint and metal work!! and great final with beluga airbus!!
Sick bro! Love the build!
Super cool build. Lovely welding.
another monster build cargo bike!
I love it ! Perfect job
Great craftsmanship!!
Amazing process!
another cool build! way to go, man
Precious video, thank you đđ»
Fantastic project !
Oooh. I like that you take the time to make your metal all shiny and nice. I definitely would not.
That's one sweet bike man! keep it up!
That ' s easy. I could make that too if i had a tig welder, drill press, band saw and your TALENT. nice bike. Thank you for sharing?!
Anxiously waiting for your recent bike build bro!!
wow, great craftsmanship
Building a frame is a dream of mine. Nice work!
Really amazing work!!!
You are a artist Man! Your bike It's great! đ€©
Super Job!!!
Love watching your videos !
ole phil, hes pretty good. precision but simple. Notice the bolts and welding, just like my 10 car hauler, Bolted & welded at factory, stuff stresses.
I love adjust the Things for me ! Im going to do one like you! Thanks for the inspiration, God bless you.!!!
Thanks! That's awesome, show us when you're done!
how many amps you use for welding aluminum?
It depends on the thickess and some other things. I usually use a foot pedal whenever possible for Aluminum so I can't say exactly. But for this Material (2mm mostly) I use something around 80-90 Amps.
ok graeat, thanks Phil!!!!
That is so awesome!
Sehr sehr schön, cool gebaut
I wish I had the skills, the tools and the workshop to do all this !
And the time, and the parts and the..
No wait, just gimme the bike and let Me go and be Me.
I really like your cargo bike projects. Would like to see you build an ice cream trike cargo bike. Iâm wanting to build one for hauling grandkids around. Thanks for the ideas and videos

I love this channel. Would like to see the bike with front and rear 90mm sturmey-archer drum brakes. You da man! Great build.
Why would you want to see it with those brakes ?
bright idea you the man
Hab das Ding 2020 schon nachgebaut, und trotzdem guck ich das Video stÀndig wieder :D
Nice build!
Nice one. Cool workshop dude
Cooles Teil! Deine Arbeitsweise sieht sehr professionell aus!
This might be my dream frame !
Que genial! So cool! Contrast for this work
nice work by vandelay industries
Super cool build! You may experience a stress fracture on the rear triangle if you do not reinforce this area. This is due to the downward bending force the brake caliper puts on the frame, which was strong enough to break my modified titanium frame. A bar from the forward bolt to the seatstay should strengthen this enough that you won't see problems long-term. Lots of current hard-tail designs incorporate this feature.
Yeah I know a lot of people put them in, so far I've never had a problem without it so I'm usually too lazy to do it.. I guess It'll take a broken frame for me to learn the lesson đ
Haha, listening to Chancha via Circuito at 1:00! Great work of course!
I want this bike , so cool !!!
eine wahre freude, deine vids zu schauen! gruesse aus potsdam!
Nice job bro!
Just seeing this. instant subscribe. this is so cool!!
Awesome video!!!!!
Awesome! I want one!
Very nice job !
I would love to see you building a mini max version .I have been bicycling in this model for about 8 months and I have had so much fun . The best and most beautiful ,models of Omnium bikes . Very fast , manoeuvrable , and light .It is incredible , but also very expensive .đ
That actually has been on my list of want-to-builds :) I agree the mini max is a great format, very versatile. It's really tricky to bend tubes that size though which is mostly what has kept me from doing it.
Good Idea & Good Job..I like it
dam excellent!.........you have inspired me to build my own bike! someone stole my yuba mundo that i used to transport my instrument and amplifier! now, i will build my own!
Nice, show us when you're finished! Always like to see other builds.
12:40 I thought I was transported to another episode of Content Cop đđ
what we do is go back

Super Arbeit! WĂŒrde mich freuen mehr in Richtung Cargo Bikes zu sehen. GrĂŒĂe
Das nÀchste Bike ist sogar schon fertig! Video kommt auch bald
Good job đđ»
ok just finished the vid. I have to say I loved it, such craftsmanship. I liked that you bothered to create your own caliper mounts, when I guess you could have just used normal brakes. well done man.
sorry to be off topic but does anybody know a way to log back into an Instagram account?
I somehow lost the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me
@Eduardo Zayn Instablaster ;)
@Kole Valentin I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Kole Valentin It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Eduardo Zayn no problem :)
You are ironman from real life! Thanks.

Mega Hobel...respekt werâs selber macht!
That look nice bro
Awesome
Nice bike
Nice!
Super Arbeit :)
I'm thinking about using my everlast welder to make a cargo bike. You've done a great job on yours.
I think if I were doing that I might clamp the head tube and extension to a piece of angle iron to line them up, then do a couple of tack welds to hold them in alignment before doing the final weld joint.
Over all, I'd say that's some pretty good workmanship.
Yeah that's a good method if both tubes have the same OD
