4:35 For future reference, sturmey archer chain toggles (?) are dissembled just by unscrewing. Knurled nut end going to the frame first to remove tension, then unscrew from the hub. (or just snap it off 😂)
When it's finished give it to @SamPilgrim to see what he could do with it. He's done a few videos with a Mk3 Chopper like this one. The Mk1 & Mk2 Choppers had a long seat and could carry an extra mate on the back. This Fake Taxi Chopper definitely needs another person on the saddle too! 😜 15:53 Humping Fake Taxi Chopper?! 😱
Had a chat with Lewi Pilgrim already Sam is limited to what he can ride due to brand sponsorship reasons but I'm happy to collab at some point if we can as we're both Essex boys with a love of bikes
DOPE! I had a ralleigh chopper and was definitely considering converting it to electric at some point. I wonder if there's a front hug motor 16" option. I imagine that would help with the instant wheelie problem
This is a good project bike I use to love my chopper and it was red. Steve you've done it again you have build the most crazy but most fun ebike yet I love it dude 💯👍🏾
Dude stuff electrifying transformation in full effect...wicked little mean machine with bundles of power. Hands down an awesome ebike. Keep up the great work and look forward to your next video.
Try getting the reverse trike add on from Ali express .then you got a rapid ,stable and able to put twin discs on front, maybe more electric motors. Your vids are insane bro, like the straight talking . Not sure about those sliders you wear ..lol
This is hilarious! I used to have an old Raleigh "Krate" style chopper bike from the late 60's - early 70's and I would of loved to try this mod. I think I'm going to get one of the new Schwinn Krate bikes from Walmart and try this. This is possibly the coolest channel on CZcams I've come across in months. Love the Mastiff too. Good job.
See the flex in the top of those forks as your doin a burnie 🤣 You've really done it this time bruv, if I where you son I'd watch out for the loony tunes bus come pick you up lol
Yeah, that's awesome. Ive been thinking to fit a motor like that to a small bike with 20" rims. Seems like it would be more torquee, and I really like the small size of them. I wanted to shunt my ebike, but I chose to get a smart BMS limited to 20amps. Which I think was a good decision for reliability.
"Safe as 'ouses bruv" 🤣 totally brilliant Steve, love it 🤣, now you need to do a old Scootex with a scate board bolted to the rear end like when we were kids 😂🤣
Wow ur videos are always amazing and this is a proper cross breed lol 😂 Love it mate. Oh yeah bruv can u help me choose the correct hub etc kit. The same as you use in ur awesome videos. Keep up the good work it great to watch. And if u can help me pick the right package 📦👍
I have not laughed so much for ages. Hilarious! You should have fitted CWC (chopper wheelie control) and CTC (chopper traction control) And you did the speed run in flipflops, t-shirt and shorts. Helmet, leathers and racing boots at Santapod 1/4 mile strip😂😂😂
See this vidoe other day couldnt stop thinking how cool it looks my e bike was stolen while at work an was going to build or buy new 1 but now want/going to do what you have done. Chopper on its way going do a two tone design. If you could tell me what u used would be great if not will have to work it out myself. Did i say it look GREAT!!!!!!!! 👍 👌 👍
In Australia back in the 70's we replaced the little front wheel & forks with 26 inch and a 36 tooth rachet. Also changed the ape hangers for Cow horns., Basically made it look like a Speedway bike. It made it handle ten times better and was a real wheelie machine !!
When I was 8 years old I broke my sternum on my chopper. This was back in 1984. I lost control and hit a lamppost. They aren't the easiest bikes to ride, quite quirky from what I can remember, probably due to the fact it's an extreme mullet bike. I haven't watched all of this video before commenting because I want to wish you luck, wear a helmet.
That's the coolest looking bike I've seen you make! But you need to find a way to tone down the throttle from a standing start. Or just find a way of toning down the power generally, it doesn't look very safe even when you don't wheelie!
This vlog brought me back some happy memories from back in the day. The old skool Raleigh Chopper which belonged to my cousin was the first bike that i learnt to ride from a early age then i was gifted a Raleigh Grifter for Xmas. I’ve never seen a pimped up old Raleigh Chopper before converted into an e-bike that’s wicked 👍
Love your dog, the bike is mental. After surviving a few thousand miles, you will probably be able to do a standing start acceleration wheelie up to about 50 mph, lol...crazy, that bike was never safe to begin with. Good luck mate, take care and ride safe, your funny.
haha fantastic!! i have made a very similar bike, with 2kw 24" on 14s and a good controller its got an 28 wheel in the front, and some very old magura hydrostop rim brakes, but no brake in the rear :D ! "holland sleeper ebike"
😂😂😂😂 that’s the best ebike I’ve ever seen I’m going to sell my ebike and build a chopper can I just ask what size voltage battery did you use ? 48/ 60 ??
You should try convert the front forks into something like bmx forks with bmx size wheel to provide more weight and downforce up front, it would be amazing if you could put disc brakes on it rim brakes on this will shred rim/v-brake pads so quick
Hi Steve you know the black bits you painted?did you use the same brand as the yellow?got mk2 handle bars on it now,not sure what to do with the gears,either get a higher tooth chainset and single speed it or keep gears and try and connect it to my motor,and got a banana seat on way,it’s going to be mental lol brilliant video as usual,oh my hubby asks what breed is yr pooch aww she’s loverly
Next time you do a shunt mod, the best thing to do is bridge the top of the shunts with copper wire like from a coxial cable, or use thin copper wire, & wrap around 1 half of the shunt & then solder, a lot less cold go wrong & gives a way better solid connection
Wish you were my neighbor! I'd want to guy half your available build. This one in particular. Or if you converted a Sear's Spyder bike from back in the day.
Quick question..ive gone out yesterday and ordered a carrera impel im-2.1 with microshifters.with 3 years cover cost me just umder 1500.if its to go wrong and i get my money back,what could you build me thats reliable for the same price including delivery

@@DudeStuff 2nd motor in the front wheel for pllin of a dead star then shuts off for full power to rear ??
Your a lunatic riding that at that speed …shorts,T shirt ,sliders …..Bonkers mate …love it 👍🇬🇧
The pinnacle of vehicular engineering
Why thank you sir 🙏
That’s absolutely mental nice job with the fake taxi 🚕 👍🏻🚵🤣💨💨💨
You are mental..... Best channel on CZcams.... I'm in tears watching you build stuff ... Brilliant
DOPE! I had a ralleigh chopper and was definitely considering converting it to electric at some point. I wonder if there's a front hug motor 16" option. I imagine that would help with the instant wheelie problem
Going to do my Chopper now
The toggle chain actually just unscrews out undo it at the cable end then it winds out of the the wherl hub
The ride of your life on board the Fake Taxi.
This is a good project bike I use to love my chopper and it was red.

what a video awsome job i had one of these back in the day you have a new sub love it
Totally bonkers - love it! I saw a suggestion of wheelie bars elsewhere here, now that would be really cool and practical!
Cracking video
What a classic to update
Making my feet feel real sore now though buddy !!🙌
Ya need a bag of cement on the handle bar's to keep that front wheel on the floor.....looks well sketchy 🤣🤣
Brilliant job I got an old chopper in the shed I was thinking of converting to electric you given me the incentive to do it now 😀
Try getting the reverse trike add on from Ali express .then you got a rapid ,stable and able to put twin discs on front, maybe more electric motors. Your vids are insane bro, like the straight talking . Not sure about those sliders you wear ..lol
Chapeau 😆 that's mental but best e-bike content I've seen for ages

I'm so glad I found this channel! From start to end, simply brilliant!
Thank you 😊

Love it the cob webs are a must for authenticity bro.

Great job on your build it’s a little beast
See the flex in the top of those forks as your doin a burnie 🤣
You've really done it this time bruv, if I where you son I'd watch out for the loony tunes bus come pick you up lol

If you had 10 of these they would sell immediately , proper grin machine, keep em coming Steve.
Love the decals mate
I like it! Nice build!
"Safe as 'ouses bruv" 🤣 totally brilliant Steve, love it 🤣, now you need to do a old Scootex with a scate board bolted to the rear end like when we were kids 😂🤣
This is where u really wanna use the brake motor cut cables lmao
Wow ur videos are always amazing and this is a proper cross breed lol 😂
Love it mate. Oh yeah bruv can u help me choose the correct hub etc kit. The same as you use in ur awesome videos. Keep up the good work it great to watch. And if u can help me pick the right package 📦👍
Mad mate good job
Sick build my man
im obsessed in Ebike now huhuhuhuhu😭😭 that was awesome ride sir💯👍
Got to be a 'run what ya brung' at the Pod. Love it.
This is what you call a proper commuter looks quick (Y) well done mate
Come children, let us ruin a perfectly good bike frame. Wow !
You've got a sub.... Just because how much you love your Bully 💞
Great watch Steve that's awesome
I love yoyr safety shoes, lol, this is the second video. You're so .ucking funny
Love the straight send of this build.
I have not laughed so much for ages. Hilarious! You should have fitted CWC (chopper wheelie control) and CTC (chopper traction control) And you did the speed run in flipflops, t-shirt and shorts. Helmet, leathers and racing boots at Santapod 1/4 mile strip😂😂😂

The amount of stiches I've had on choppers when I was a kid with tank slappers there's no way on earth I'd get on that bugger, lol
Where do you get the complete set up in previous videos motor/battery/controller/display
You crazy dude!
Dawg! That's nuts. If I may share mine. I built mine rear wheel direct drive. 52v. 45amps. On a banshee scratch frame.
I dig the yellow color of too!
Those decals are brilliant!!!! 🤣😂
short-pants and rubber shoes riding the most mental e bike I ever seen, helmet? naaaa why 🤣 I'm a professional. just subbed.
ffs i dunno what made me laugh more!, the turbo chopper or the fake taxi stickers everywhere lmfao.
I love the bit where you realise you should have measured it hahahahaha belta mate

Well done dude .
You just need to get the rear brake working really well and learn some brake control and you've got a wheelie machine
Awesome work 👌🙂
Great stuff dude 👍 you are absolutely CRAZY 😂😂😂 I do wish you would put something on your head and not wear flip-flops though!
Awesome, I bet if you hit a speed bump, the front end will lift up. It's Dangerous, That's why I like it lol..Good Job 👊 it's a wheele king
All your weight is over the rear wheel that's why it wants to flip out. Still though epic build. Subbed to your cool channel bro, cheers for sharing.
that beast needs drag bars at the back
That's the coolest looking bike I've seen you make! But you need to find a way to tone down the throttle from a standing start. Or just find a way of toning down the power generally, it doesn't look very safe even when you don't wheelie!
It isn't particularly safe in the slightest 😂
Isn't that the point?
Safe = boring.
I need a dual motor e bike, i have a kaabo warrior x. I could sponser a small build 2×2000w 72v35Ahish, great fun video
That's bringing back memories wicked
Love ya dog!
2kw motor on a, wheel chair next

Amazing work 👍🏻👍🏻 can you let me know what kit you got please?

Wicked Chopper 👏🏼
Wow nice my favorite ebike😍😍🙏
Did he tell/show battery specs? I have something similar and I'd like to know about the battery
Super restoration. Nostalgic fun ..Beautiful dog brother...what is she
Not sure if you ride motorcycles but light use of the rear brake will bring a wheelie down, maybe the same will apply on this beast of a chopper!
Why do death traps always look like such fun? Great job!
Cool build..
Love your dog, the bike is mental. After surviving a few thousand miles, you will probably be able to do a standing start acceleration wheelie up to about 50 mph, lol...crazy, that bike was never safe to begin with. Good luck mate, take care and ride safe, your funny.

52v 2000w hub ☺️
Great video.
Who is this please?
I had chopper when i was a kid. really want to convert my mountain bike to nippy little commuter but i have no clue what id need.
WTF love it, i remember my 7th birthday when I was lucky enough to get a purple chopper, brothers had chipper and grifter .
You should try convert the front forks into something like bmx forks with bmx size wheel to provide more weight and downforce up front, it would be amazing if you could put disc brakes on it rim brakes on this will shred rim/v-brake pads so quick

Thanks 😊 black spray is hammerite and Gabi is an Alapaha bulldog
I have an idea... make a wheelie bar in the back
Hahahaha I’m so glad I got a front hub motor ,that is so scary with all the wait in the back !
Put a wheelie bar on 🤣
I’ve got two old choppers!!! Very interested 😊
Hello that is pretty fast ,what company is the hub motor from if it ok to find the same to order one thanks.

Next time you do a shunt mod, the best thing to do is bridge the top of the shunts with copper wire like from a coxial cable, or use thin copper wire, & wrap around 1 half of the shunt & then solder, a lot less cold go wrong & gives a way better solid connection
Looks like fun, I think hub motors are helping adults to re live their childhood !
That more bit hundred fast guided missile nice good one ok yeah
great vid,but can't believe you wear flip flops !
lol. be careful. the bike has the power!
Wish you were my neighbor! I'd want to guy half your available build. This one in particular. Or if you converted a Sear's Spyder bike from back in the day.
Flip-flops are you mad 😂 good bye toe nails
That's easily hitting 40mph weapon... I luv it
Quick question..ive gone out yesterday and ordered a carrera impel im-2.1 with microshifters.with 3 years cover cost me just umder 1500.if its to go wrong and i get my money back,what could you build me thats reliable for the same price including delivery
I don't deliver but you can get a 2000w build off me for around 1750 1800 region depending on spec. Can collect from nearest train station.
@@DudeStuff wheres location and nearest train station
