you're a master eletric engineer, put a motorized thing to pull it up and bring it down! It would be a really cool video to watch! XD
I want to see this!
Dude he is as good a mechanical engineer too!!
He had to save something for another video. Perhaps the next one will be adding the winch motor followed by a video where he adds a remote control to it. An additional video could be where he attaches a Tesla coil to it for a security measure maybe????
Exactly!
@@robertoswalt319 the anticipation is killing me haahahahah xD
A screw in the wall doesn't mean there's a stud there. It only means that somebody thought there was a stud there sometime in the past. :)
Can we take a moment to appreciate him taking time to draw in LITERALY all of his videos, and there not bad drawings either.
Nice video, but a bit disappointed ....when you will add a DC motor to it? with a gear ratio...or something....just press a button and the bike is up.... :D:D:D:
would be a good main channel vid

what more can you ask for
I’ve had this hoist system for several years for my two bikes. The friction force in the pulleys can be minimized but using a spray lubricant. Also, the reason the end of the bike nearest the pull cord raises first is because the travel distance of the first pulley is shortest. The more pulleys added, the longer the path and the slower the pulleys rise.
Mehdi, i really hope you are doing great, and that you and your family are healthy and happy. Thank you for all the fun and amazing videos you give us!
You should have painted the wood white to match the ceiling. You know, because of the wife and all. :)
You could add the wood as a new cross member between the joists in the attic so you get the same thing without looking at the wood

I just want to say thank you. I'm in my 20's and my life doesn't revolve around science. But your videos (these and electroboom) keep my interest in science going. It may just be a hobby/interest for me. But your passion helps keep mine alive, so thanks.
Don't worry man. You don't need to be a scientist/ engineer to appreciate science. Anyone can do it irrespective of their field/ work. Creators like Mehdi on CZcams really inspire a lot of people to take interest in science and appreciate it. We need more people like you especially in this time where science seems to be neglected and treated with suspicion. So hope your passion stays alive👍
@@manan-543 a genuine thanks from me. I think science is amazing! It's just not the thing I was made to do. But that's doesn't mean I can't support it, or always try to learn and understand more. So thanks for understanding and also being supportive. I agree we need science and people into science these days. Thanks for being a random person who created a positive interaction on the internet. I truly hope life is treating you well!
@@logancrapser3866 yeah you should keep learning and understanding more and keep that curiosity alive! And you're welcome. I try to spread positivity on the internet as much as I can cause in these terrible times all of us need it and sadly the internet filled with a lot of negativity. I hope the same for you👍. Good luck with all your endeavours.

Thanks Mehdi. Great product review. You captured my short-attention span for the full 16 minutes +. Informative, debugging, and entertaining.
So great. Love that you explained centre of gravity with a practical relevant example as well as going through tweaks to methods.
I've used these hoists for years. The rope is not the first thing to fail - it's the pulleys. They get brittle and eventually crack and seize. I also modify the hooks, so that I hook them sideways into the wheels, which is FAR more secure.
I’ve had this setup for 3 years now and it hasn’t failed once
maybe yours had rust so the pulleys degraded?

Hey Mehdi, (sorry if i get your name wrong), I found some improvements that you could apply onto your pulley system. Hope you consider my feedback. You may use this comment in your videos, under creative commons. Hope this comment got noted down on your list.
1. Takes a long time to pull up, can get rope burn if too fast.
a. Use a counterweight, on the side of the rope where you were pulling up. Make sure you can add more weight than the measured weight just in case. This allows you to:
-Lift the bike up with little effort, like lifting a pencil.
-Involves no electronics with the build. So you don't have to bring wiring all the way to the site to use motors.
-Counterweight can come from anything, just be sure to contain and or hide the weight, and make sure it doesn't bang around and make noise.
b. A counterweight, with a motor.
-You might hurt yourself. I've seen your electric booms videos. Hope you are still ok.
-You have to bring wires from your cable box all the way to the site (Or borrow from another nearby source if you are lucky).
-It costs money to buy a motor, unlike getting a counterweight from inside the house, or salvaging another motor, and making it work.
-You could get another sponsorship from those awesome pals with those cool scopes (NO guarantee THAT ONE THOUGH).
2. Make A slotting, easy, secure mounting point. (Edit)
-You can make it in onshape, or a different cad software.
-Recommend starting out on paper, and start measuring out your dimensions for the hooks. Make sure you allow a good enough tolerance for the parts to fit nicely. You might want to add ramps for guiding the hook in effortlessly.
By the way, my mom really likes your electroboom videos and if it wern't for you, I wouldn't have lectured her on electricity though the bathtub plumbing to ground. If mom's seen this, I'm in for a surprise.

Lassi Kinnunen ha me too, but then i read it again and im happy i did.
wait Electroboom???
Wait is this his second channel...?
05 ItepK yes of course
HolyKlea • 12 years ago yes
Personally, I installed both pulleys (front and rear) on a two by four and then fixed that to two rails that are perpendicular. This allows me to have multiple bikes stacked on the side and then pull them to the center un hoist down the one I want. Think of a container crane on a dock. That was my inspiration and it is super practical and saves space.
Thanks for showing all the quirks and features and giving it a Mehdi score.
The thing that you mounted to the wall to tie up the excess rope is called a cleat.
In Dutch it is called 'kikker' which translate to frog, because it looks kinda like frog legs.

If I had to learn all this sense in a physics class, I would have been very bored and it would have took more than 16 mins to understand it. But ElectroBoom makes it so smooth and easy to understand 👍👍
I remember doing a similar project for storing kayaks. We didn't drill directly into the studs/joists, we drilled on either side of the joist and used u-bolts to mount a pair of block-and-tackles for each kayak. We were lifting with a pair of ropes, but it prevented the unbalanced issue you mentioned earlier in the video.

Pro tip - to prevent marks, paint the walls and ceiling near the bike with two coats of a good quality interior gloss latex paint, tinted black.
Also, if you repaint the entire garage that way, it will seem larger, especially at night. It worked great in my college dorm room.
That much black would look so depressing though…
Nice to see a video on Mehditation once in a while!
my dad set up some hooks that hook onto the frame. The wall got ripped off.
He must have screwed them into the drywall, not the studs.

Great video. Answers all the questions and was fun to watch.
Looks like your back feels much better since the 120V/230V video. GOOD!
I think of two things that could improve this system - much thicker rope (like 4-6 times thicker, not for strength, it's much more comfortable to pull or lift weight with comfortable thick handle) and better pulley wheels with bearings.
Since you're in Vancouver, you should do a home improvement collab with Linus Tech Tips and Brian the electrician!
I need this guy to review everything. Wildly entertaining.
Thank you. The "thread the rope down through both parts of the locking mechanism" was not clear from the instructions that came with it. So your video was a great find.

I'm not going to lie, I turned in to see if the bike was going to crash into the floor, I really enjoy the comedy aspect of the channel I also always learn from theses videos.
“hoist” is funny because it reminds me of “MOIST”, Mehdi!

You're a dad - I was just waiting for that "It finds me - I'm a stud" comment. Nicely done sir. LOL. How could I not subscribe to someone who made me reach for the "like" button multiple times during a video only to find I've done it.
"stud found!" LOL! I remember you from the videos my son first showed me your shocking electrical adventures! Thank you for teaching him- he is now a budding electrical engineer!
i used to have my bike on the fixed ceiling hooks as a kid, the easiest way to put the bike up is to hold the bike with the rear wheel up and the front wheel down and hook the rear wheel first
I thought I was on electroboom and was going to see the bike hoisted up with a garage door opener. Maybe some sparks thrown in somewhere too.
It's awesome, he applies engineering to fix everyday life problems, and it works. Thank you for the video, and other video.
Really enjoy your videos! The true test: see if ElectroCute can HOIST it up and down!
After I bent the hooks, I hang my rear wheel onto its hook, and the front to the handlebars. That would straighten your lines too. The seat is not a good attachment point.
Out of curiosity, why is the seat a bad attachment point? Is it due to the instability of the mount itself (i.e the amount of "wiggle room" it has to end up off-center?) ? Or is it because you're worried about the dropper post? O.o
@@lordmrcs Theoretically it shouldn't need to entirely hook it, the downward force pulling onto the "ledge" of the hooks should be plenty to keep it secure enough unless you're just bein foolish around a 45lb object hanging from the ceiling, but I do see your point!
@@meatsmell8639: The construction of most saddles, especially leather saddles. You can definitely tear a leather saddle using it as an attachment point.
Yes, the seat is only held in the riser tube by friction, and may start to move. I'd hook off to the back wheel.
That was such an overcomplicated and expensive solution to a problem that could have been solved with 6 ceiling hooks worth like 10 bucks.
I love it.
The problem was that he would've been always the one hanging the bike up rather than letting others do it.
But he has a bad back
@@joshnabours9102 Do the manly thing of sucking it up and for his family. Go hit the gym sometimes.
Love how you picked my favourite Christmas song :)
Random passing note. If you only ride on the streets, get bikes with only front suspension. Rear suspension absorbs a lot of the motion from your pedalling making your ride less efficient on your body and you'll get tired quicker. You'll also find the ride is actually smoother as a result and you'll go faster and accelerate easier too 👍
13:25 thanks to all those electrocution
Crazy idea: HOIST the child bike which is lighter and keep the big heavy one underneath. Just sayin.
Big brain time.
Depends on how often you use each bike. I thought of buying such a device myself, but 2 times per day lifting and settling? The weight is not the problem, about 11 kg, a classic racing bike with extensions for the traffic.
About the weight: For lifting the bike, you can use your own weight, to pull it up. Probably install some kind of handle on the rope, to avoid burnings.
@@unbekannter_Nutzer What about a hand winch? With gearing (and an electric motor!), you could make it effortless, if time-consuming.
@@Markle2k
Weight and power is not a problem, at least not for me. I would prefer to have a shorter pulling way, which takes 2 times the power but a shorter pull. But child and wife might have different views on this. Winch and motor consume space, too and space seems to be our limiting factor.
There is a common pattern in engineering/design, that while trying to solve a main problem, the side aspects and surprisingly arising problems and their solutions gain overweight, and in the end, you only focus on wether the boundary contraints where met - the main problem is out of focus. Did the current solution even win some space? But if we compare 8:35 and 9:51, we can confirm, that a second bike of the same size would - with a bit of shaking, pull and push - fit below the lifted bike.
But now imagine the big monster truck, staying in the garage, you want to get to your upper bike but there is already a lower bike. You have to pull the lower bike out, first, release the upper bike, find a place to lean it on (the best place is already occupied by the 2nd bike), bring the second bike back in ... :)
Okay - let's sell millions of ads on CZcams and engage a butler for tamagotching the comfort extensions of our homes. :)
I was about to comment just that lol
