- This video shows my journey how I begin my recumbent trike project. It's starting from a school project, then I continue it as my personal project. Through the years, it has undergone many changes. If you enjoy watching this video, please like it. If you have any suggestion or comment to improve my project and video, you can leave it below. Thanks for watching (^_^)

Hello everyone! Thanks for stopping by to watch my video! This video I made with minimum video editing skill. So that's why it's just a slide show. Btw, I have improved it and make another video about my trike. So I would like to invite you to watch my other trike videos as well. Here's the link:

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
You did not fail. You learned something everytime and you did not quit! Those two things alone make you a better engineer!😊
Thank you! 😊
Not for nothing but part of the existence of the internet is to research and share ideas. There are already dozens of WORKING recumbent trikes out there that you can get ideas from.
Thank you!😊
The world needs smart people like you!! Invent on!! and love it..
Thank you!😊
Nothing wrong with failing, that's how we learn. Failing means you're learning to win. If we succeeded every time we tried victory would be meaningless. Great video. I might try this. We both need to learn welding at least I do.
You're right! After I did it, the failure that I've before become the best part of my story. Thinking back, I love the time I fail. There is where I learn how to keep it up
WOW!! You did such a great job!!! That is a really complex thing to build. It takes a lot of careful planning and dedication to figure out all the details.
You will be successful in all that you do!
One thing.... you did NOT fail in ANY of this....you LEARNED!!! Something most people never do!
Great JOB!!!!
Thank you!😊
Pretty cool project, your designs look good :) and I like your persistence
Thank you for watching. I'm planning on making another trike soon.
Wow...This is a better build than a lot of American adults could have done. Good for you, little brother... They say genius is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration.... If you're not a genius, at least you are way, way ahead of the game for age 18.
Thank you!😊
thomas edison was once asked when perfecting the electric light bulb after literally thousands of attempts...'how could you handle 5000 failures?' to which he replied 'I didn't fail once. I simply found 5000 ways it didn't work' . If you have a vision and a goal which is firm in your mind then through persistence the path becomes clear. if something doesn't work one way then it's not a failure . It's experience that no text can ever bestow upon you so it's a positive
Thank you!😊
assalamualaikum...saya dari bentong pahang...saya telah membuat cargo trike ...alhamdulillah...berjaya...sekarang tgh buat recumbent trike...gambar kat fb page # kerjabesikayu...tahniah sebab terus berusaha
+Haffadzi Che Rose Waa'laikumussalam, terima kasih. Semoga kerja anda dipermudahkan dan berjaya mencapai apa yang diimpikan. Jangan lupa share gambar bila dah siap nanti. :)
Nice job. Never give up!
Failure is an idea who's time has passed. With each model that doesn't work, you _know more_ about what doesn't work. Someone who has never tried _knows less_ than you do, even though they may never have "failed".
You win.
Jennifer Grove
cool
Thank you!😊
you didn't give up, you didn't fail, you learned ways to improve and kept going, very well done!
Thank you!😊
right on never give up dont you know,winners never quit and quitters never win.i'm in your corner cheering you on i know you will do it,just dont give up please.
Thank you!😊
Impressed with your work and following through. Problems might arise but that is part of the fun of building something yourself from the ground up. Be proud of the accomplishment and enjoy the fruits..
Thank you!😊
That presentation looked very professional, well done. You probably already know this, but Atomic Zombie is an excellent resource for recumbent designs.
Thank you!😊
A wonderful school project! And you just never gave up! Congratulations!
I like the front tires: very low and safe. Cruiser style Trikes, on the other hand, turn over very easily on hilly or just uneven terrain. I think you did a great job. And it looks safe. 😀🏆
Thank you!😊
Thank you so much for sharing All of this with us.I've read down the 'comments' too.and thank them also.I've also collected a few bikes to cut and combine.Now I know the best of ways.
Hello there. I would like to see your trike when you've done building it. Don't forget to share!
Great to see how you build a non welded trike, the last project looks much better the your schoolproject. Keep building on welded trikes, maybe from scrap metal (aluminum)
Thank you!😊
I gave you a thumbs up for perseverance.
Thank you! (^_^)
Excellent work young man. You designed and thought this out at the same time you were sitting your country's highest educational exam? I hope your parents are proud of you. Well done.
Thank you!😊
Great achievement. I admire your perseverance. 👍
Thank you!😊
very cool !!
Thank you!😊
Good Job. Great attitude to never give up!
Thank you!😊
Congratulations on your perseverance!
Thank you!😊
Great work. I can't wait to see the next one.
Thank you!😊
Awesome build
Thank you!😊
well thought out, good work.
Thank you!😊
Congratulations guy!!
Thank you!😊
I really enjoyed this video, and I learned something too. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!😊
Nice hat!
When I first read your comment I didn't get what did you want to say because I think I didn't wear any hat in this video After thinking about it, I remember the thing that I wear that time. Actually it's not a hat, it's called 'songkok' . It's traditional Malay wear.
Nice job - Keep up the good work!
Thank you!😊
super maszynę zrobiłeś przyjacielu jestem pod wrażeniem. Uważam, że najlepsze jest to co zrobimy sami. Ja też swój rower poziomy ( recumbent bike ) zrobiłem sam.
Thank you!😊
You're an inspiration
Thank you!😊
very cool congratulations!
Thank you!😊
Inspired by... 🙏
Thank you!😊
Don't give up !
Its always better luck next time..
Even after you succeed, try upgrading & new models..
All the best 👍
Thank you!😊
Nice video and build. The fading between the pictures seemed to be longer than the photo showed. That made it hard to see all of the pictures clearly. So I paused many times. I love it. :)
I noticed in one picture that the steering geometry seemed to be off a little. The steering arms from each front wheel should point directly towards the center of the hub of the rear wheel. when the drag ling is attached, the steering will track perfectly.
You probably already knew that. But the picture showed me different. It was hard to tell by the picture. information exchange is worth more than gold. I hope I have helped. I wish much good luck to you.

+muddymuddymuddmann thanks for watching my video. You must be observed it very well. Thanks😊
Thanks, i stop and analyze any build I see so I can get as much out of it as I can. when i saw your title, it dragged me into watching your video for more ideas. I have several bikes that i have collected in an attempt to build my own. I built one when i lived in Virginia. It was heavy. real heavy lol I built it using the framework from an old bench press bench.
the wheels wound up being towed outwards a little bit. that made it very hard to peddle.
I did get the steering geometry straightened out, and I peddled fine, even in turns. But it was still heavy. hard to get started, and hard to stop. And the chain was loud and noisy.
Then i had to move before I could put a weed eater motor on it. I left it behind to a friend, and it got stolen in three days.
But ever since then i wanted to build a new and better one with what I have learned since.
One Thing we did exactly the same was using the full forks for the wheels. But my pivots were welded to the inside of the forks. That way any bike wheels could be used. But You Sir, used only bolts on yours. Simply amazing work. Great job, And many thanks.
MUDDy
Intresting video montage, cool to follow your jurney - and courage to keep improving and making better each time ... See you later! :)
Martin Pernicka Thank you sir! Have a great life!
only matter of time until the bolt break, weld is necessary
+Bejho Uhuy Give him a break! (and post a video of a project you're proud of (to be ripped apart by people like yourself!) I'd be proud to have him as a son!
ow yeah i made a bike from a potato but it break immediately. that when i was a kid 20 year ago, have no videocam watsoever
+Bejho Uhuy No, actually bolts hold very well if you use a tempered bolt and lock washers and torque them to the recommended maximum range. Welding is nice, but it is not necessary, only makes things a little lighter.
go on you is the best
Thank you!😊
great job 👍
Thank you!😊
You did a good job on the trike. You knocked it out of the park with the graphics. You should pursue a degree in film arts or something like that. Not trying to say anything bad about the trike but your skills are in the graphics not engineering. Great job sticking with the trike project. Best of luck with everything. Also, your English is a bit better than some Americans I've know. Keep up the good work.
You're right! I just try to make the trike myself. It's one of my interest, not my field. Thank you for your motivation!
Thank you!😊
Hello. My best wishes to Malaysia. Thanks for the video. I hope that when even I could ride on my own recumbent.
Thank you!😊
@@MUFHAELITE You are good man. Good luck to you in your life way.
It's been 6 years since your comment above. Sorry for late reply, but have you achieve your dream to ride your own invention mate?
@@MUFHAELITE No, brother, i cant achive my dream. I have many problems. I think after 2-3 years I can do it. Tahnks for your comment.
Good luck brother. Everyone facing a lots of problems during this pandemic.
don't give up mine was already feature on our local tv news and on newspaper i also have done lots of failures too,.. no welding was my 1st attempt but luckily there was a free welding classes offer in our place i took it and bought an inexpensive 2nd hand portable welding machine to build my own trike,....
can you give me the link of your trike pics or some information about it?
this is a great design and am using it in mine. thanks for sharing this is great. a suggest for the forks in the seatpost holder...try a shock from mountain bike. i am gonna try some other things. will let u know how they work out. my other design i needed to weld wasnt that good. this is perfect nicely done.
do u have any better pics of the front swing arms? the steering. i cant see it all. ty.
You can take my design as long as you don't use it for commercial. When you've done please share your video. I love to see it. The steering system of this trike is not good. So I have upgrade it and I will upload some pics of the steering soon. Good luck on your project!

this is taking some time to make. i went through 5 drill bits already. i got a cobalt carbide tipped drill bit. making progress. got the back end done. and making a bracket for the seat post. . having fun.

Take your time. I done my project successfully after 3 years. I make it when I have free time, enough money and... motivation (sometimes I'am lazy to do it). However, if you do it constantly with full budget and skills, I think you can make it about a couple of weeks (or less). Anyway, have a great day! If you need more details you can watch my new videos : Part 2 - MUFHA Trike 3D view ..... Part 4 - MUFHA Trike review
MUFHA94
for the wheel assembly. the front two wheels/steering tube. what part are u using for the top and bottom. i am stumped on this at the moment. looks like a neck or seatpost cant put a finger on it thanks

If you have facebook account I suggest you to join this group : facebook.com/groups/436300886382371/
You can post your progress pics and you also can ask your questions there. That way is easier because there are other professional builder than me. So you can get the best advice to apply into your project. If you want to ask me personally, this is my FB profile : facebook.com/mufha94
I viewed your channel mate, absolutely love the content. Subscribed straight away, We should connect!
Llew Gibson thanks mate. I really appreciate it.
Thumbs up. Some issues here and there but keep going. All the best. Cheers ;-)
Thank you!😊
Bike looks like it *might* be a really cool design, but can't really as I never get a real good look at it. Trying to pause video every other sec just to have a good look at poor pictures sucks.
Check out my channel I have another video that give a better picture of the bike
Assalamualaikum.masih buat lagi trike? Saya nk buat velomobile tp x Ada ruang, tool Dan welding skill. Mungkin Kita bole JV.
Saya dah lama tinggal projek ni. Hajat nak continue juga untuk masa akan datang tapi belum berkesempatan lagi. Sibuk dengan kerja.
Always remember "Out of failure,comes success" All you have to see mine . jesikebiking
A few of my earlier builds I redid and they turned out better than before
Thank you!😊
Awesome...but telling your story in this format is not your strong suit.
Thank you!😊
to quote Thomas Edison-“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work…” and “Just because something doesn’t do what you planned it to do doesn’t mean it’s useless…”
Thank you!😊
i thinck you should show your projectic BEFORE in internet. So if there is a problem on one. The people who know about build that things can tell you.
Good suggestion. Thank you!😊
menarik
terima kasih :)
Design ini open source ker?
Macam mana mahu bincang?
Now if you could only narrate it better, keep the photos on a little longer (like about a minute instead of 1 second!) and not waste our time with the first 2 minutes, you might have something. Where's part 2, by the way???
Yes, leave the photos on longer. Don't make people pause the video so much.
Thank you!😊
There is welding in the vid. >:[
Sorry, this video show three models of trike. The first one I made with my team with the cooperation of expert. That one is welding trike. But the 2nd model that I made myself (the failed one) is without welding. Same with the 3rd model. There may have some welded part (the original welded bike part). The rest of it, I made without using any kind of welding. I just joined it with bolt and nut.
Great idea, poor video.
Less intro. and
Needs more time on build and less quick shots of frames. Good luck!
Thanks!
Thank you!😊

Thank you!😊
wth
Thank you!😊
the bike may or may not have turned out ok, i skipped through all of video, it was simply too painfull to listen to and watch !!!!!!!
Thanks for watching my video. This video was made about 8 years ago with very limited gears and skills. Sorry for your poor experience. Try to check out another videos on my channel about the trike project.
