    This guy is a badass engineer. This takes years of experience, it should be a crime not to share this talent he's got. He should open a dojo or something. Just like Andrew Ritchie, this country is full of these brilliant people hiding in the shadows, and they shouldn't be. What a great video. I love this stuff

    Great job Sean. Im looking for a video of someone converting a hardtail bike to full suspension. There isn't a single video anywhere of anyone attempting this. You certainly have all the tools required for such a job.

    Seu projecto é excelente para nos aqui do Rio de Janeiro, principalmente na baixada fluminense onde o transporte público mais usado São os trens urbanos onde a maior parte dos passageiros moram distantes das estações. Parabéns meu amigo. Deus-lhe abençoe sempre.

    It be lot easier, cheaper, and environmentally friendlier to create a bike from composite deck boards (which are I believe made of recycled plastic bottles) you can buy at Home Depot, Lowe's, Menards, or an independent family lumber yard!

    What you can do to make it faster to fold up or get ready is keep a cheap drill with an Allen key bit in your car.
    Nice editing 👍

    Great job. But you did not show how to line up two hinges. it is the most tricky part. I noted this since I have converted a trek 1.2 which is aluminum into a holding bike.

  • @fraserm803
    @fraserm803 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    awesome engineering!
    why is the hinge end made of tube in three pieces ? cud it not be one single piece
    of tubing on both sides of square hinge bracket?
    Also how many man hours did it take you please?

  • @iangeorgewhatton7541
    @iangeorgewhatton7541 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where do you get the folding parts from to do the conversion?
    Would it be better to have smaller tube inserted into the bike tube and then put the bosses on and Quick release skewer in?
    Do the brake and gear cables need to be longer?
    Why cut the Handlebar Stem?

    As a "Lanky prick" it seems getting a folding bicycle that fits me and dont cost more than a car is a problem, so been looking into doing this (To a hybrid). More worried about if im going touring and have all my bits on the bike as well as my big self
    How is the bike holding up after all this time? hinge's still good?

      The bike I used was actually a pretty good bike when it came
      out about 18 years ago which is why I chose it, much better quality than the
      steel framed garbage you get today, now finished it rides flawlessly unlike the
      tron LED bike which creeks and rides like a sack of ****

    I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times.
    78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways.
    81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times.
    88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders.
    92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come;
    and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified.
    99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations."
    102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75
