  • This one I made using a donor mountain bike, some tubes I bought from ebay, and a mig welder. Enjoy. DIY.

    I am 70% finished my trike. I am using your front wheel design is simple. I like it. I am doing a no weld bolts only trike. Its a challenge but I am getting it done. I just installed the boom tonite.
    With my other design for no welding and the wheels like this is perfect.

    Suggest putting some sort of seal over the steering bearings. They are sealed, but could use maybe a rubber weather shield, just to keep the water from dripping right on them.
    Easy to do because You have a bit of all-thread sticking out the top.
    A disk out of a bike inner tube would work.

    This is the best go to woah video that I've seen so far apart from some detailed explanations on physics behind the design. I would like to see more on how the chain is fitted under the seat though. Yes, I am aware that this is 4 years ago.

      4:39 is probably the best view of the completed drive train. The top one is most likely fixed in place (probably bolted straight to the frame) as it will hold a lot of tension, and the bottom one is probably adjustable to make up for any slack as the chain wears and whatnot. You can find chain idlers relatively easily on the internet. czcams.com/video/x2PBlE2E9P0/video.html This appears to be a similar build although I wouldn't copy it 100%

    simple solid design very nice , I see we are about equal in welding skills I think I shall build one for myself

      Poor welding, lower the amp. button on the machine and while you weld, stay in the fusion bath and dont go too fast. A little practice will make u a good welder...

    I want to make one, but too much welding, cutting, grinding ! How did you know where to cut & weld. Front angles are very important when turning. I need much more info. Help please !

    Great project!!which software do you use for tube miter?

    Interesting solution for direct steering,but I don´t see any front brakes? BTW very motivating clip.Good work!!!

    Did you put a bearing in the pipe at 0:31 minutes?

  • @k3wfnUTUBE

    Great Job! What did you use for the camber and caster angles on the two front wheels?

    • @ianallen2
      @ianallen2 Před 5 lety

      If I was you, I would google them. His are wrong. The camber and castor angle should point down t othe tread touching the ground. His points outside the tyre path so steeringh would be awkward and not true.
