      Broken Medic you should contact the artist and see if he’ll make a bike for you.

      Broken Nedic where are you from? I mean it really doesn't matter where you're from, me and my friends would love to build something to get you out of the house. Contact me bay.area.heli@gmail.com
      Me and my friends love taking on challenging projects, the last project I did was a flying mosquito fogger for the local schools, so we can the fog all the creeks and the kids can go in the yard without getting eaten alive. Was completely funded by donations everything went into the project nothing in our pockets. It will also make her a great CZcams video.

    This man hands down describes the art behind the things i do. I never could have guessed a possible explanation like this one yet, he hit it spot on. I build motorized bicycles. Preferably the 2 stroke standard setups that most people can afford. I specialize on the working class. You just opened more idea of advertising than i ever though possible. I keep my buids cheap but the level of advers you just showed me, gives me confidence i can take-off into the next swing doing kids bike builds. Thank you. Also if your wondering, an 18in. Kids bid with a 38t sprocket is too much torque. Run it on a 32 and the average 8 yr old can learn how to control a bike safely.

    These are the kind of project me and my dad did when I was a little kid, we used to get old don't electric forklifts and turn them into whatever we felt like turning them into mostly three-wheel trikes and some two- wheel bikes. Everything was from the dump and it was so much fun, I'm actually looking for a project to start with my dad it's been a long time and I would like to get him moving again.

    A amazing video. These bikes are just enormously tough, both with and without engine (preferably engine for me). I see nothing wrong with the manufacturer's imagination, he's probably operating on a larger scale now. This had to be popular.

    @sharkmentality9717 Před 5 lety +2

    If you've ever ridden an indoor (high tech) exercise bike or watched an eROCKIT video, you'll understand that the "feeling" of pedalling in sync with the engine is incredible. Wish more creative designers put emphasis on building bikes that pedal (with resistance) at high speeds. If you must just sit and ride statically, It's not really a bicycle. Rather It's just a pretty frame with an engine. And that's not being creative, that's deciding to compromise and using pedals as foot pegs...calling it a bicycle.
