Whhooooooo.... fantastic .... you know what's the best part of it..?! You're sharing with all the people your knowledge and your mistake and your hint to build this amazing bike ... THANK YOU
That’s exactly it! It also supports me developing it even more! I’ve been working hard on some key extra features like build in charger and signal lights!
Well... it's how you see it. You still gotta pay a good penny for the information so I wouldn't call it sharing but he still needs to make money so it's not that big of a deal
Fantastic work! A perfect example of what the internet was originally for...free sharing of ideas and information. I wish I had the time, money and skill to build one of these!
Be careful guys. 3600$ is not really true. After buying Ladi's parts list, I went trough and concluded that all prices + shipping are much higher in real, plus take into account import TAX. Frame, fork, motor, brakes, battery, other small stuff are more expensive than in original calculation. This build barely will fit into 4500 euro in Europe, not sure about USA and other countries. Options which Ladi shows in this video like lights, switches, charger, mirror, etc... are considered as extra in parts list and will cost additional money. Especially Schlumpf drive, quite expensive thing... Think twice before buying parts list. For sure you will not get bike you see in video for 3600$, absolutely.
what a sleek ride. good call on the alarm, some curious folks probably couldn't help to keep their hands to themselves when seeing that locked up on the sidewalk!
So cool, I wish the speed limit switches were hidden under the seat instead of on the handle, like the delfast ebikes though, just incase cops pull us over lol🥴much respect though, will you ship to Toronto, Canada btw??
Absolutely! It changed my life and opened the world to me (as cheese as it sounds). Fuel is expensive so I always consider if driving is worth it. With this I always find the smallest excuse to ride somewhere. To pick up things, shop, meet friends or just to explore places I don’t know. It doesn’t matter what mood you leave in, you always come back smiling!
Mate I appreciate everything you shared as I first bought a stealth fighter then built a larger framed enduro with fibreglass panels and now my best of is a steel framed which I am yet to start due to my body. This is a not stop learning process and your bike is something to be so so proud of and anyone that says different has shit for brains. I will be purchasing your info just so as to learn what mistakes I have yet to make! Thank you for the shared info and safe biking. I will send some pics and vid of my builds from oz, cheers
That is a rad bike. I was about to purchase a Santa Cruz High Tower but my buddy wants me to go the ebike route. He's looking at mid motor production models but that doesn't really interest me because the prices are almost prohibitive and they're all maxed at 20 mph not 49.I know there's some legal wrangling going on there but that's what I want.Your bike seems to cover a lot of bases. What kind of off roading do you do? How much does it weigh? Is it good on the bumps, jumps, trails and climbs? I don't mind building but it does look like a lot to bite off. I've built rc cars, helicopters, planes. How much build time are we looking at here?
this is just incredible.. I wish i will ever have the fortune to own something like that... i would exchange this to my 1979 honda motorcycle. for real.
I’m not confident enough to build such a bike for fear it will blow up in my face haha! Great job, it looks really cool bike too! Il buy it off you haha
Hi, I’d love to see an e-bike designed for Van life (also, for travelling on a car mount). A second vehicle to get about on but also useful for errands. Such as food shopping, laundry visits, collecting fresh water. I don’t need to go like a bat out of hell but easy to mount on the van would be crucial.
Ahoj, ani nevím jak to říct, paráda! :) Jsem také fotograf, také jsme postavili solární campervan (ochechule.cz), kde cestujeme s rodinou a již nechodíme do práce a nyní přemýšlím nad elektrickými přemisťovadly do dodávky... moc držím palce, jste skvělí a díky moc za ideu a celkově sdílení, teď mám brouka v hlavě :D Ať se vám daří! :) Martin
Finally found this specific model! Ladi, you should probably make a more unique and distinguishable name for this one, bcs i struggled so hard trying to find this again I mean, all the bikes you 'sell' are e-bikes if you think about it
I loove it , great video Ladislav!! This is really good E-Bike for 3.600USD. Peek power and charging time are exelent. Great project, I fully support it. Love from Croatia!
I have converted my $35 dollar second-hand Mtn bike into a 32 mph 1500 watt rear hub ebike. I bought a mostly complete CaliBike kit from a dude on Craigslist for $375. The Calibike battery is 52V 20 Ah. So I think I have a pretty great ebike with about a 30+ mile range. I enjoy pedaling along with throttle power as needed on hills, and to accelerate at traffic intersections. A big key for me is exercise; I have had 4 knee surgeries and bicycling seems to be the only way I can strengthen my knees (and relieve my arthritic pain!) If I were to purchase your full kit plan for this 60 mph ebike DIY, will I still be able to work my knees and legs for exercise? I like building my own stuff and I feel strongly that ebikes, e motorcycles are the future! (Better for Mother Earth as well). I am in Tucson Arizona, USA. Are all the supplies I would need in the USA? Also, I would like to make a more "motorcycle looking" bike with fat tires, and higher handle bars, perhaps "z-style"; kind of like a mini-old school 60's style dirt-bike-chopper! Lastly, does your $3600 kit price include estimated shipping costs? If not, is there a way I could do a cost of shipping analysis/estimate? Are there any other "hidden" costs? I am retired on a fixed income and I need an accurate picture in terms of "real costs." I need to know accurately (as possible) what I would be getting into with this kit. Thank you. Cheers!
In NY it is illegal, I believe in the NY city the max speed for ebike to be considered bicycle is 25 MPH maximum. That bike is a police magnet and NYPD will just snatch it like it is nothing and poof, ya'gone!
Seat level is set too low. You should be able to extend your leg to a straight position when sitting on the bike, with your foot on the pedal. I guess if doesn't matter if you only use the pedals occasionally. Also in my opinion, a standard bike seat is no good, get something that supports your entire butt, not a regular bike seat that puts pressure on your privates. It's like the inventors of standard bike seats were not even thinking.
Yes. The motocross style seats look much more comfortable. I've done 100 miles in a day on a good bicycle with extra gel padding and still it hurts. Cuts off the blood to your wang, also.
is it a combo of a higher Volt and AH that gives the bikes distance, or a combo or Volts, KW size, and Amp hours? Sorry for my ignorance, just kind of getting into the Ebike world and loving what I see.
AliExpress is your best friend :-D de.aliexpress.com/item/32344911452.htm de.aliexpress.com/item/32949343041.html There are multiple versions of this frame. If you live in the EU or UK you could consider Andy Kirbys bikeshop: www.cloudsto.com/ebikes/frameset/high-power-e-bike-frameset-detail.html
As you said it take 2 years of effort and previous experimentation to get it perfect, thats the cost vs just buying a professionally made one, and many people don't have that level of skill or confidence in engineering to make it.
50 mile range with a 2.2kwh battery is pretty good IF that range is at high speeds. Comes down to about 46 watt hours per mile. If someone crashes into you... good luck getting their insurance to cover you. Don't be surprised if a cop takes it off you as well, at least basically anywhere in America. You will never get away with putting this on an American road and having it be street legal.
This has so many of the features that I would look for in an E-bike with power and range to spare ... I LOVE IT !!! If I were you Ladislav, I would petition Elon Musk with a formal proposal to hire you to do a limited run TESLA E-Bike with a full proper facility and team. This is something that would sell as fast as you could build them. I mean, he did build flame throwers ... LMFAO
Ladislav Jecminek ... the best part is that it would only be a limited run and you might be able to make a few decent bucks putting your design out there. Then you could carry on being awesome once it’s done. Shorty contract. You seem to be the EXACT kind of person ELON is always looking for !!! I’m sure you could do up a resume that would get his attention personally. Do a TESLA mock up with a wicked logo and send it to him with that parts list and video !!! Lmfao ... Ask him how much better it could be if TESLA and you could collaborate on next level innovation.
Try Shimano Zee\Saint, Sram Code R\RSC, Magura mt5\mt7 (cheaper\more expensive) with metal pads and the biggest rotors your fork\frame can manage instead of these. They're the most powerfull brakes in MTB world. Sure you'll feel the difference.
I know zee well, this time I tried these brakes because they are cheaper and are supposed to have different levers only. On my current build I’m testing mt5. What I don’t like right out of the box are cheap plastic levers. Also good point with rotors. I’m building a new machine now with 225mm rotors. You are on point 👌
If only I had one since my current ebikes horrible. the battery can't even go 10 miles without being completely dead, not to mention it is a 48v 1000w battery.
Hello.Im using a ebike of 750w which runs on 48v Powered with 4 vrla batteries (4x12=48v). Can I use 14s li-ion battery pack which is 58.8v (when fully charged)?
Hello could you give me some advice regarding the motor disc brake screws, why they unscrew even if I tighten them tightly there is this problem that they unscrew.
I'm thinking now what would be the right donor vehicle. I'm starting a ebike project with a old specialized mountain bike. With xt/Xtr components. I realized this bike seems a bit weak for high performance. I'm thinking a old 125 mx 125cc bike with a brooken engine would be much stronger. I remember my old rm 125 only weighed 86kg with engine and water cooling.
I have a pretty tight budget, so I could only dream about affording this type of bike. It seems near impossible to source a cheap 1500/2000w conversion kit with battery included, for a good price in Europe. Moving to Turkey next year, so if anyone knows where I could pick up a cheap conversion kit, my broke ass would be extremely grateful.
As much as I love 2 strokes they suck compared to this. Always dealing with oil, is’s so loud for people around, it stinks, short gears... when you have opportunity give strong ebikes try!
LMAO !!! petrol scooters sound shit . Just one long farting sound . It doesn't even have different pitches like a proper motorbike . Ebikes are quiet, don't stink and have instant torque . Even RJ said an electric bike is better for commuting than any of his motorbikes
Always liked motorbikes but couldn't really enjoy the outdoors along with the engine noise, this is the future. Btw in eastern europe we assemble those with junk.
I have a question for you in your opinion which type of motor is better to have if you’re going to ride in the rain I have motor or a chain drive motor?
@@VRMinde Ive had shimano and magura mt7 and mt5. mt5/7's are better in my opinion for ebike use, especially that magura makes brakes designed for ebikes!
A bike like this might actually let me ride downhill at Sunday River Maine without having to use the chair life to get back up xD People saying this is expensive for an E-MTB... to buy a commercial model you're looking at a top speed of 18-20 MPH in the US, and most likely a 250-500 watt battery. This guy's build costs less than half of what my pedal bike costs.
That's why they invented motorcycles. A motored cycle. A motor bike. A motorcycle. Jesus. This is nice diy bike. But it's not a new concept. It's not a mountain bike either. It's a 1920 Harley with an electric motor and a phone. But it's useless on any road.
Ladislav, I'm slightly confused with Schlumpf drive. First year is just a bicycle cruising gear with no electricity. Second gear takes it to around 50 mph with electric assistance? Great design. Thanks. Very interested. This is even better than the Sur-Ron.
@@nugetta Yes, of course it's ok. But he shouldn't be saying "big believer in shared information" because that's the opposite of what people will expect.
You know Chris, filming this video guide 4+ hours took a lot of time. Building up my skillset took years and I spent so much money on previous models. One think is getting something back and another one is sustainability. I love developing and I produce good innovative results because enough people purchase my video guide.
@@ladiandmargaret Of course, but the statement "I've always been a big believer in shared information" doesn't really fit here, and feels pretty misleading. If it was me, I'd share the parts list for free, but then charge for the DIY videos. Just my thoughts.
Here in Finland, motorized bicycles that reach speeds exceeding 25 km/h with the help of a motor are considered moped and you need a license to ride them.
To be fair, a decent mtb is $3500 (or more). Even for a simple road bike, the cheapest non-junk bike is $1k, and that’s with very budget rims and absolutely no carbon fiber besides the forks. Then if you want a disk wheel, that alone might be $3,500 just for the rear wheel (and no that doesn’t include the tire, often won’t even include the gears either at that price). Me drooling over a $3k wheelset for my bicycle, and you’re complaining $3500 for an ebike is kind of funny. It’s not as cheap as it could be, you can certainly do it cheaper, but he’s probably wanting some quality parts that can deliver some performance when couples together. If you want something different, then that’s totally cool, you don’t need to pick the exact parts he did, customize it for what you need. It’s all about perspective similarly I look at new cars and thing “dang, $15k is about the cheapest crappy car you can get new? Screw that, I can find cars that will do wheelies for cheaper!”, I wouldn’t want some boring low end base model granny mobile, and at that prices I look towards used. It’s just preference.
0:15 - sorry mate you are wrong, the best Hub motor ebike money can buy is the top spec stealth Ebike. 9 speed internal gearbox. base 6200w to 14kw. integrated computer thats on on the bars, aircraft grade alloy.
@@ladiandmargaret Yeah see thats wrong, I dont know why people think they are $12k usd. The stealth's are Made in Australia in Melbourne, ive been to the factory. The top spec one is $10k AUD, thats $6.6k usd. Seems the importers really charge double.
how does it do on a hill climb? Can it maintain a high (60km+) rate of speed? Could you post a video of this in the future? that is a big point of interest for me.
I'm a big fan of your work, both the van and this bike. It's a killer ride and I can totally see myself giving up my normal motorcycle and just have one of these things - I'm also considering some vanlife. However, there is one big problem, and that is that this bike is turbo illegal in most nations, at least if you want to drive it on the roads. With this kind of speed and power, this is essentially a motorcycle from a legal point of view, and it's not homologated so that means it's not even possible to insure it like a motorcycle or ride it legally on the road. Which is unfortunate. I mean - you can still pretend it's a bicycle and ride it normally but if the police clocks you doing 100, you're going to have a bad time. Or if you decide to ride on a bike path and drive over a pedestrian, you'll have a worse time. But it is definitely an amazing bike, and the fact you can buy all the components and build it is very cool. I wonder what the law says about DIY projects and using those on the road... maybe there is some loophole there.
Thanks so much! I’ve been working hard on making them street legal! I’ve just finished prototyping mud guards and signal lights are following. These frames have homologation so there is a way. Legislation is not catching up with these projects but within few years they will be legal!
Usually custom builds, regardless of vehicle type, can be inspected by an engineer from your local DOT to approve for use on public roads. It can be expensive, but once done, you just need to have it inspected at the regular frequency by a regular mechanic, just like any manufactured vehicle. A person can always stick to the trails if they're not interested in driving on pavement - not necessarily urban/suburban bicycle trails either. Toss the bike in the back of the car and head for the country if you don't already live there. Lots of off road atv trails just about everywhere in the world to enjoy. Inspection, registration/licencing, insurance isn't typically needed in that case - just follow the local laws on safety gear and generally the law will leave you alone.
@@JamesBiggar Absolutely, for off-road exploring and riding this thing looks absolutely spectacular. Just wanted to point out that there are legal issues taking something this fast and powerful on the road in the EU and the US both for instance. If you ride this at speed and crash into someone, things will be worse from a legal point of view than just crashing a "legal" vehicle, as in possible jail time even.
80km range after only 90 min charging... Impressive...
probably not true lol
Down hill, and while pedaling, and no headwind. lol

100k is that 60mph!, well done.
Blank Blank ...yes, 100kph = 62 mph.
Try Shimano Zee\Saint, Sram Code R\RSC, Magura mt5\mt7 (cheaper\more expensive) with metal pads and the biggest rotors your fork\frame can manage instead of these. They're the most powerfull brakes in MTB world. Sure you'll feel the difference.
I know zee well, this time I tried these brakes because they are cheaper and are supposed to have different levers only. On my current build I’m testing mt5. What I don’t like right out of the box are cheap plastic levers. Also good point with rotors. I’m building a new machine now with 225mm rotors. You are on point 👌
@@ladiandmargaret yeah, true about levers. Sad, that all of them have some cons have to be fixed :(
Love this🔥
Fastest or not I've been drawn to this beauty.
Fantastic bike i want 2 👍
Got any sales jobs going?😃
Only for europeans at the moment 😥 build it yourself, if I can do it, you can do it too!
@@ladiandmargaret Can you Ship to Portugal?
Continue your missions. I love those videos
If only I had one since my current ebikes horrible. the battery can't even go 10 miles without being completely dead, not to mention it is a 48v 1000w battery.
@Data Soong I'm sorry, what? It's hard to understand what you said. A Dynamo?
Pecka. Fakt. Už ale mám tolik hraček. Freerida KTM. SMcr KTM. E-dragstra. A stejně mám pocit, ze tohle potřebuji.
Bože, dej mi silu 😂
Souhlasim, tohle potrebujes! 😂
Bože, tu silu, kde jsi ?
Jdu zkouknout další tvoje videa...:)
Snad mě to přejde.
Btw - fakt úžasný kus práce.
Ma
Ja jsem na Olomoucku! Stav se na projizdku!
Ladislav Jecminek Já jsem už 4 měsíce na ostrově, snad budu v ČR na delší dobu v říjnu...po návratu z Afriky. Do kdy tě chytnu ?
Ja mizim v druhe polovine zari.
This would be good to ride on the moon. Or Mars just kidding This is very impressive
Hello.Im using a ebike of 750w which runs on 48v Powered with 4 vrla batteries (4x12=48v). Can I use 14s li-ion battery pack which is 58.8v (when fully charged)?
Its just a light motorcycle with electric engine.
Actually, Its just a mountain bike with electric engine. I've owned motorcycles for 40 years.
Not really a mountain bike frame. That's a box not a triangle. The hub motors are great for less chain maintenance and more direct power.
Its a motor dammit.
...and hub motored, not chain drive. I'm not seeing many electric motorcycles with hub motors. Mostly they have mid-drive motors. Few hubbed.

Hello could you give me some advice regarding the motor disc brake screws, why they unscrew even if I tighten them tightly there is this problem that they unscrew.
damn, thats fast!
Well done Ladislav.
if i buy it, it costs $ 3,600?
$3555 to be exact
Ladislav Jecminek ...and how much to buy yours 🧐
Very expensive!! Isnt a motorbike...
I'm thinking now what would be the right donor vehicle. I'm starting a ebike project with a old specialized mountain bike. With xt/Xtr components. I realized this bike seems a bit weak for high performance. I'm thinking a old 125 mx 125cc bike with a brooken engine would be much stronger. I remember my old rm 125 only weighed 86kg with engine and water cooling.
great job, just a bit beyond my abilities but otherwise a really great job!
I have a pretty tight budget, so I could only dream about affording this type of bike. It seems near impossible to source a cheap 1500/2000w conversion kit with battery included, for a good price in Europe. Moving to Turkey next year, so if anyone knows where I could pick up a cheap conversion kit, my broke ass would be extremely grateful.
As fast as my old 125 2 stroke! Doesn't sound as cool though
As much as I love 2 strokes they suck compared to this. Always dealing with oil, is’s so loud for people around, it stinks, short gears... when you have opportunity give strong ebikes try!
@@ladiandmargaret what's the range and recharge time like?
80km average speed, 90minutes with my standard charger or 44minutes with a super charger.
@@ladiandmargaret and the range ? Or did you mean range?
LMAO !!! petrol scooters sound shit . Just one long farting sound . It doesn't even have different pitches like a proper motorbike . Ebikes are quiet, don't stink and have instant torque . Even RJ said an electric bike is better for commuting than any of his motorbikes
Bike looks fantastic glad to see your hard work payed off.
Thanks so much! It’s definitely a lot of fun and very rewarding activity riding it!
Always liked motorbikes but couldn't really enjoy the outdoors along with the engine noise, this is the future. Btw in eastern europe we assemble those with junk.
I have a question for you in your opinion which type of motor is better to have if you’re going to ride in the rain I have motor or a chain drive motor?
Sick! I would go for Magura mt7 breaks tho.
Hey, thanks for the input! Very pricy but I bet good brakes!
But keep the shimano handles instead of the plastic magura nonesense..
@@VRMinde Ive had shimano and magura mt7 and mt5. mt5/7's are better in my opinion for ebike use, especially that magura makes brakes designed for ebikes!
A bike like this might actually let me ride downhill at Sunday River Maine without having to use the chair life to get back up xD People saying this is expensive for an E-MTB... to buy a commercial model you're looking at a top speed of 18-20 MPH in the US, and most likely a 250-500 watt battery. This guy's build costs less than half of what my pedal bike costs.
Thank you for vocalizing it 🙏
i need this for work, car driver giving me abuse thinking it's funny when going past, well push button catching driver up now who laughing 😂
I’m the same! It’s absolutely amazing for commuting!
That's why they invented motorcycles. A motored cycle. A motor bike. A motorcycle. Jesus.
This is nice diy bike. But it's not a new concept. It's not a mountain bike either.
It's a 1920 Harley with an electric motor and a phone. But it's useless on any road.
It’s actually pretty good on roads. I’m confident enough to say it’s one of the best city transportation options these days.
Nice...question, why dont inventors utilize the kinetic energy of the bike (and first battery) to charge a second or third (spare) battery?
There is only one big battery and it charges when breaking.
angel eyes on an e-bike = Slav that probably owns a bmw..
I don’t 😉
Pedaling the bike does what? does it recharge the batteries somewhat??
Pedaling pushes the bike forward, regenerative braking charges the battery.
Lol no way you reached 100 km / h on that thing, doesn't even look like 60.
Ladislav, I'm slightly confused with Schlumpf drive. First year is just a bicycle cruising gear with no electricity. Second gear takes it to around 50 mph with electric assistance? Great design. Thanks. Very interested. This is even better than the Sur-Ron.
Ok. I checked out the Schlumpf site and it's all manual. What model Schlumpf did you use? Is that in your info packet? Thanks.
Idk to be honest, they are pretty expensive and I bought one second hand. I think it’s 1:1 ratio the first gear and second is 72 tooth or something.
"I've always been a big believer in shared information" Charges $35 for a parts list.
WTF??
@@nugetta Yes, of course it's ok. But he shouldn't be saying "big believer in shared information" because that's the opposite of what people will expect.
You know Chris, filming this video guide 4+ hours took a lot of time. Building up my skillset took years and I spent so much money on previous models. One think is getting something back and another one is sustainability. I love developing and I produce good innovative results because enough people purchase my video guide.
@@ladiandmargaret Of course, but the statement "I've always been a big believer in shared information" doesn't really fit here, and feels pretty misleading. If it was me, I'd share the parts list for free, but then charge for the DIY videos. Just my thoughts.
It’s still a shared information no matter how you interpret it.
Here in Finland, motorized bicycles that reach speeds exceeding 25 km/h with the help of a motor are considered moped and you need a license to ride them.
62kg!? Way too heavy!
u know its really powerful right and when u got assistance you dont need to care about the weight that much
Is this or can it be street legal, public sidewalk legal in Europe when using the slowest mode?
"Or they were just super expensive"
*Has a $3,600 electric bike*
Big difference buying $6000 ebike factory made that is not even good as mine for $3600.
To be fair, a decent mtb is $3500 (or more). Even for a simple road bike, the cheapest non-junk bike is $1k, and that’s with very budget rims and absolutely no carbon fiber besides the forks. Then if you want a disk wheel, that alone might be $3,500 just for the rear wheel (and no that doesn’t include the tire, often won’t even include the gears either at that price).
Me drooling over a $3k wheelset for my bicycle, and you’re complaining $3500 for an ebike is kind of funny. It’s not as cheap as it could be, you can certainly do it cheaper, but he’s probably wanting some quality parts that can deliver some performance when couples together. If you want something different, then that’s totally cool, you don’t need to pick the exact parts he did, customize it for what you need.
It’s all about perspective similarly I look at new cars and thing “dang, $15k is about the cheapest crappy car you can get new? Screw that, I can find cars that will do wheelies for cheaper!”, I wouldn’t want some boring low end base model granny mobile, and at that prices I look towards used. It’s just preference.
You mentioned that one of your friends lived in Europe and bought same like this bike with 2 years warranty. Can you provide me with a link ?
I will stick to my petrol trail bike.... cheaper, faster and longer range.
Sure
0:15 - sorry mate you are wrong, the best Hub motor ebike money can buy is the top spec stealth Ebike. 9 speed internal gearbox. base 6200w to 14kw. integrated computer thats on on the bars, aircraft grade alloy.
For $12.450 usd? 😂👎
@@ladiandmargaret Yeah see thats wrong, I dont know why people think they are $12k usd. The stealth's are Made in Australia in Melbourne, ive been to the factory. The top spec one is $10k AUD, thats $6.6k usd. Seems the importers really charge double.
Should have a mini solar panel charge as you are ride,or if you stop to enjoy the view
how does it do on a hill climb? Can it maintain a high (60km+) rate of speed? Could you post a video of this in the future? that is a big point of interest for me.
I’m climbing a hill in this video!
I'm a big fan of your work, both the van and this bike. It's a killer ride and I can totally see myself giving up my normal motorcycle and just have one of these things - I'm also considering some vanlife. However, there is one big problem, and that is that this bike is turbo illegal in most nations, at least if you want to drive it on the roads. With this kind of speed and power, this is essentially a motorcycle from a legal point of view, and it's not homologated so that means it's not even possible to insure it like a motorcycle or ride it legally on the road. Which is unfortunate. I mean - you can still pretend it's a bicycle and ride it normally but if the police clocks you doing 100, you're going to have a bad time. Or if you decide to ride on a bike path and drive over a pedestrian, you'll have a worse time. But it is definitely an amazing bike, and the fact you can buy all the components and build it is very cool. I wonder what the law says about DIY projects and using those on the road... maybe there is some loophole there.
Thanks so much! I’ve been working hard on making them street legal! I’ve just finished prototyping mud guards and signal lights are following. These frames have homologation so there is a way. Legislation is not catching up with these projects but within few years they will be legal!
Usually custom builds, regardless of vehicle type, can be inspected by an engineer from your local DOT to approve for use on public roads. It can be expensive, but once done, you just need to have it inspected at the regular frequency by a regular mechanic, just like any manufactured vehicle. A person can always stick to the trails if they're not interested in driving on pavement - not necessarily urban/suburban bicycle trails either. Toss the bike in the back of the car and head for the country if you don't already live there. Lots of off road atv trails just about everywhere in the world to enjoy. Inspection, registration/licencing, insurance isn't typically needed in that case - just follow the local laws on safety gear and generally the law will leave you alone.
@@JamesBiggar Absolutely, for off-road exploring and riding this thing looks absolutely spectacular. Just wanted to point out that there are legal issues taking something this fast and powerful on the road in the EU and the US both for instance. If you ride this at speed and crash into someone, things will be worse from a legal point of view than just crashing a "legal" vehicle, as in possible jail time even.
Daamnnnn SEXY bicycle !!!!!! I really want to DIY !!! But watching this built already i want to buy from you or rent😁😁😉😉
Great work sir!!!!!💪💪😋😋😋🙌🙌🙌🙌
Thanks so much!
Do you have a little pocket on the bike for the soldering iron?😁
Awesome! How could anyone give this a thumbs down?
Good question :)
