  • Last video I did a walkthrough of how I build my favorite freak bike design ever, and this week I add a rear v-brake and give it a paint job. We also take a quick tangent this week and revisit a trip I took to Tsukuba, Japan to give a freak bike building demonstration. Chopping up a steel bike frame and turning it into some rideable artwork is fun, and a good form of self-expression.
    Special thanks to Tad, and Tak from the University of Tsukuba for organizing my first ever Freakbike Build Demonstration in Japan. And thank you to my buddy Evan for filming some of the test-ride shot of the finished Donk.

    Very cool build. Never seen anything like it on the streets. Like a tall bike in reverse with the crazy proportions!

    I love stuff like this. Especialy funny if it had some ridiculous velo bike carbon disc and front mag wheels on it. I just love over the top race parts put on silly stuff.

    can we see the donk being ridden with extra long seat post to get your leg extension/power transfer ++?

    Would look good with orange and white lettering 😁

    Will u make stunts with this bike? if not, you could have used a rear hub with a coaster brake, and then have no need of ANY brake-handles or brakes at all.. So to say, a single-speed-bike with an invisible rear brake...

    So glad I found this channel, you are really making me kick myself for not picking up that wheelset for cheap last year. Great work on the donk! You seem like a pretty smart guy, may I ask why you are wearing a mask outside?

      I'm wearing a mask outside because we occasionally have a "light breeze" here, and getting a mouthful of spraypaint suuuuucks. ;)
