want to see more? / sparetimeshop I got selected for the Redbull Soapbox Race Belgium 2017 and today is the big day! RACEDAY music: "Vibe with me" by Joakim Karud
Beautiful build for a red bull gravity racer... wish your wheel had not taco'd on the water hazard. I did a local bar to bar downhill race about 10 years ago where I was probably doing 30+mph over a double set of railroad tracks and caught a lot of air. 20" wheels and I definitely felt it landing, but my Greenspeed GTO recumbent trike took no damage... smaller stiffer wheels with high spoke count well tensioned. Definitely not a home brew build... a high end fast trike with 81 speeds at the time. I like your bodywork, the thick bodywork under it makes sense for a gravity racer where weight isn't a significant issue... more the better until you can't steer... but as someone who pedals their stuff, it hurt to watch that part of the build :)
This looks awesome, my only issue is the use of the bike wheels. In hind site it seems like a great idea but as demonstrated, they can’t handle the maneuvering the races require. Great build nonetheless.
Enjoyed all your build videos too, very good, very thin aluminium sheet probably would have been a better choice for the body shape though, I look forward to seeing your mk2 version. Keep up the good work 👍😊
Ruben i watched the the 4 part series and i think you did a incredible job it's sucks you bent your rim on that ridiculous set of speed bumps because you would have finished with a much faster time if you don't mind me asking what place did you finish in and also wanted to say thank you for sharing the series with us,all the best
Hey Ron, thanks for the support. I would have finished a lot quicker if I didn't have my handbrakes on the whole time (I didn't notice at the start) And I don't really know what place I was in, not first, thats for sure :) But I had fun and survived that, for me, is the most important thing

Beautiful build. I bet it wouldn't take much to convert the rear wheels to electric with that huge trunk space for batteries.

I think your rear wheel got bent, bcus you didn't install any shock absorbers for those wheels
Bonjour et un non plus tôt deux énormes bravos . Vous est bien barré tous les deux.
Gooooooooooooooooooodjob!!!
Great build great editing great channel - subscribed
Thank you, picture of pig 😜
@@SpareTimeShop maybe you could motorize the build with an electric motor
Really nice but some suspension would be really nice too
+ electromotor = candy!
Just gotta love it! ;)
Well done !
To musiała być fantastyczna zabawa :)
