- Here we have the updated edition of the bike and trailer that I have continued to build for my two daughters a couple of additions as well as the future editions to come as I say in the video if you have any questions or comments as to where to start yours or how I particularly built a specific component don't hesitate to ask and I will do my best to answer gofundme.com/5r5z5v64
nice project. combining hammocks with a trailer is very space saving
You definitely exceeded all expectations in creativity with your cargo trailer, you are a total crack. Congratulations blessings for your beautiful girl and excellent trips
Nice. After watching this I don't feel so crazy building my trailer.
Is it legal for a 13 yr old in Virginia to weld
It's great to see a dad so devoted. It won't be long before you'll need to start on their cars.
JAFO ugh so not looking forward to that
Keep going, great things come from backyard inventors.
your willingness to put this together is apparent
along with your workmanship and attention to detail
the trailer looks very overbuilt and hence much heavier than necessary
good job, well explained
Yes it was very overbuilt it has been now completely rebuilt a total overhaul with about a 50% reduction in weight and 25% reduction in all the unnecessary things
what I've found that is cheap/light and easy to work with is EMT tubing.
I rounded up a set of 4 benders from Craigs List $15 or so each.
With some practice to allow for the stretching on the corners
the projects turn out Great
I'll bet the kids Always want to go for bike rides!
I can see this thing going into the shed and staying there in a couple of years.
Never! Lol the kids love it even the neighborhood kids love it I get asked almost every day to go for rides they'll outgrow it eventually but it will still be a head turner
@@liljay51884 And all thanks to Daddy, who was explaining that "we" piloted the trike into a curb.
I will be building something like this for my lawn mowing business so I can get around town and mow lawns and make some money
I haul a bike trailer for bike party Sacramento, thanks for all the crazy Ideas for maybe a future project, very nice 👍!!!!!
Cool project and great explanation of what you did! Thanks for sharing, ignore the negative comments.
BigDWiz thank you I do ignore them everyone needs to make them self feel better somehow I guess
@@liljay51884 you need too leave the drug powder cocaine alone,your snippleing way too much,i use too do cocaine so i would know.
@@liljay51884 so i can just walk up with bolt cutters and cut the lock and rip the horns and the the alarm speaker off and take off with it as i am shooting at you right.
My friend im from Puerto Rico and you do a awsome job, we love that trailer, very good job.
Thank you
i have a 48v 1000watts front weel on my tricycle meridian and i wish to have the ability to do what you did man, ur #1
I like the suspension, you took the time to make it ride nice. I want to find the video that shows how you did it, what you used for it, why, and how you figured out the right spring and shock.
I’m building a home, this has helped, you wouldn’t believe,cheers man,
Wow! That Looks Awesome! I wish I could have a bicycle like for my business!:D That bicycle is definitely on point:)
Your trike and trailer are awesome, good job. Change your battery to the lithium ion, they must be lighter weight and longer life.
Have a nice day.
I love TH-cam! It's the perfect showcase for those with more dollars than sense... Neat project though.
JPVegh Lmao I only have so much money in it cause this is the 3rd "prototype"
liljay51884 or you could have spent your money on a camper/van off Craigslist(my dad bought one for 2grand and all we had to do is replace the lights and redo the shower, then all we had to do is give it a remodel... My mom didn't like how it looked, but you need to spend your money wisely)
it's called lightweight construction materials. except for when u have high valued items in it, then you have to go for thicker heavier materials, but that's the cost for security and durability.
Very true
You can make chloroplast slap on siding and roofs clear.and pull out rooms for over nighters think paper plastic wood and metal and use all weathering walls cloroplast corrugated sheets and kitchenette pull ot 4 by 8 size puzzles?.GOD bless
Fun project. You must have some strong calves to ride that thing around. lol.
Love the ideas. Great work.
Well, I think you did a very good job on it. Good luck on the rest.
Awesome looks brilliant love it nice radio .😀😀
Thank you
3:45 my favourite song
Carlos could you please tell me what the songs called I can’t find it
I'm very impressed 🤜🤛🏻 you got a sweet ride there.
Thank you it has come a long way since this video
I could give a crap about a stereo on a tricycle. I was looking for ideas on building a cargo trailer to haul 3 grandkids on. I have the same Schwinn meridian. I'll need an electric hub motor too. I'll listen to a stereo while drinking beers at home. To each his own. Ride safe and far. Thanks for the video
Dale Wildey dropp me a text dude ill desgin you a trailer if you like ? just tell me what you need and ill implement it all in ma vision
This is awesome!!! Good job!! I know this is an old video but how has it worked out for you. Your power box is exactly what I want to with mine, I want to be able to use it in the summer and I live in arizona so will need to keep it cool.
It worked really well while I used it but eventually went another direction with the trike I built a wagon (that you can see on my channel) and that now pulls the trailer and it has now grown to 2 powered wagons and 2 trailers (43'long) and I take the kids to and from school everyday with it you can see some of the updates here gofund.me/8ef4a5a5
Looks pretty badass! How much weight can the trailer safely carry? And roughly how much did it cost to build the trailer itself without the sub's?
Joe Blythe the tires are rated at 275lbs each and the trailer weighs about 300lbs
That thing weights about a ton!
yes it did
You are a very hi-speed individual. Hooah!
You have no idea lol
That's a lot of money to spend on making a trailer when you can get decent ones for like $150-200 but at the same time I respect the creativity and cleverness it took to make this! Good work!
It started out small and then it just grew from there this is the 3rd "prototype" trailer and 4th bike pulling it I have done alot of redesigning to it to make it stronger and do more so the money is just the continuous upgrades that I have added to it its alot of wasted money I agree from broken parts or things that got tossed away because they didn't fit in with the ever growing of the trailer but the kids love it so that why I keep going
liljay51884 Do you think you could maybe do like wood work tutorials on how you put together because I'd love to do something like this but I'm 17 and only know the basics of wood work Maybe you could even just show how to make a basic hitch, I have a hybird bicycle by the way. Many thanks.
+Cillian I could do a tutorial on how I built the flatbed of the trailer itself that's actually pretty easy the hitch is actually just two pieces of wood through together and I shaved down just enough wood for a receiver hitch to slide over them and then just bolted it on I have a really busy week planned but maybe this weekend I'll try and get a video tutorial and walk you through exactly how I built each part of the trailer itself
liljay51884 That would be amazing, I've already subscribed hahaha. That would definitely be something I'd be interested in!
Ik im late asf but I think it would be best to put ur first aid kit near the storage bin in the front it would be drastic if a real emergency was to take place while ur riding to run to the back of ur trailer then to the front of ur trailer hop on it and fix the issue u would save at least 10+ secs and be able to actually diagnose the problem with the kit near you just some advice
Awesome I been want something like that but I am not much diy person
Well done. May i suggest you to use motorcycle tires. They are stronger and muchmore durable. Well. If you can. Of course. Be well and God bless you all.
when all computers shut down this would be one reliable trasportation
I really like the idea of a powered trailer that pushes the bike. But this is powered on bike correct.So it’s an electric bicycle vehicle basically with lots of amenities. Bells and whistles. And it was designed for that purpose? To power the bike and trailer weight? As well as carry your children along with ease? I find it and the process, magnificent.
You've done a great job
Thank you
@@liljay51884 U're welcome
Great job 👍👍
Thank you
cool three Wheeler with a trailer even the music is molodchina
Some comments here are just mean and unnecessary. What's wrong with people these days?
HRL48 you just learn to take them with a grain of salt sometimes jealousy speaks louder than appreciation
You should run the motor to the main sprocket and thru the derailleur.. Would be loads of low end torque, but pretty high in the mph..
...a dad that creates pleasant experiences for his daughters, bring joy & hope , ... for all abused & abandoned women. ..
That is awesome!
Great
Thank you
Awesome
Thank you
Great video. And a terrific trailer design!
Thank you
I hope you are going to put a cushion on the seat so it will be more comfortable for the child or children.
Penelope Quillen it has a cushion
i like the way you built your bike,goooooood luck
prodestar mukwa thank you
you are welcome
Great job
Thank you
Nice efforts.. Good results.. likes from India
Very cool indeed!
Thank you
Ok thats quite gnarly. 👌🏻
Wow, you sure put a lot of time and money into that rig. There are quite a number of impressive features. I'm not sure if I'm impressed or appalled; maybe 60/40. I think I'll look up he other videos on this to see WHY you'd make such an investment. Right now I'm thinking some kind of holiday parade is behind it.
Ron Yerke it has been in parades I built it for my kids mostly
You need to get sealed bearings in all your hubs then you'll be Rollin sick bike tho!
wesley mason thanks
Holy Ghost that is a good setup. :o
Have you been to the woods lately, :( because I believe some nasty trolls followed you back. Great video and project you've got there,don't let those trolls get to ya. I was wondering where you were ordering your new wheels,I've been trying to find sturdier wheels for my trailers with no luck. AWWWH... Looks like a poser is upset because his song cover videos haven't made him youtube famous,so he spends his free time trolling youtube. :'( Bless his heart. Is it because he isn't skilled enough to write his own songs,or just a very unhappy camper because he sucks at life?
jeremy henderson lmao thank you🤝. the wheel I get from Kingston Saddlery Supply they are horse cart tires a little on the heavy side but very sturdy
:'( I really dislike those know-it-all trolls,who just got lucky when they inherited opposable thumbs. Thanks. I'm actually building a small trailer to pull behind my bike,and I'm glad I found your video because I want to include a solar system (or maybe just add a sprocket to one of my trailer rims to charge my batteries as it's being pulled) for my power tools so it gave me a few ideas. Did you buy your trike,or did you buy the axle adapter and put it on an existing bike? I had a 20" Schwinn (when I was BMXing) that had the same frame design. I found some decently priced trikes online,but I think I'm going go with one of the 4 wheeled Rhode's bikes, or build one (because they are way over priced,in my opinion). I built an Asian cargo trike (2 wheels on the front) a few years ago but only after I built it did I realize that it wasn't what I needed.
cute kid and NICE trailer!
Noah Gaburo thank you
Cooling fans need to draw the heat OUT, you cant just blow in with no exit point, you need to draw cool in and blow the hot OUT! oh and those heat sinks need air to pass over them to work properly, so clearance all around them Is required, A hole in the front of the box, 3-4" circle, and a hole at the rear would do better with airflow through the box, great job other wise,
That’s epic
Thank you
@@liljay51884 I want to carry my friends in it
I would enclose the alarm horns as well. my .02
What if it rains? All those electrical circuits!
They were sealed inside with no way for water to get to them the only thing I ever had to worry about was the stereo itself and now I've built a new trailer that has a cover for the stereo and all electronics are sealed from the elements it has been caught in several rain/snow storms and I've had no issues at all
Sweet trailer!
FUCKIN AWESOME !!!
That's neat!
Thank you
buckled the fork backward? I've never heard of that!
Sweet trailer
*ready set go* this bike is really cool, but 6000 is a lot
JerryTortoise this is the third one and 4th bike so $6000 is a total that I've spent over a 4 year span on the constant upgrade and rebuilding it
Oh, that makes much more sense
('be thankful for what you got', song by William de Vaughn)..... EVENING BICYCLE RIDE thru the neighborhood! :-)
TV antennas in the back :)
I would put this on my golf cart
I like it
Nice
Your awesome.
Harriet Enloe thank you
Awesome bike dude!
thank you I still use the hell out of the trailer but the trike just sits now 😕
Insane
Yes is was an insane project
Nice vid bro
Good job!!!
Good idea!
wire did you get the wiring harness at looking at building a trailer for my moped and need something to have running, brake lights, and turn signals love the sleekness of that pin system

The trike is for sale if anyone is interested lol
how much are you asking
Tell him he's dreaming.
How much are you asking
It's gone pulled it apart and used it for parts for another project
I am from India and would like to build a camper-trailer. As I think I am getting the travel itch. Could you please advise....
Did you consider installing hub motors on the trailer for regenerate brakes?
I don't have that trailer any more it got rebuilt but that is a good idea for the next build
Hey man, where the hecks the dvd player eh?
Very good build sir. Put some serious thought into it. Cheers.
Can't trust the kids did not break the screen but I've definitely thought of it 😁
sick LED
Bc Tsunami which ones lol
Nice trailer. I am looking to build something myself over the summer. What is the company you got those wheels from? I am having trouble sourcing heavy duty wheels.
Altered Exposure Image Design look for horse cart tires www.kingston-saddlery.com/ here's where I got mine from
First, there is nothing wrong with spokes but you have found out what us serious haulers have found out. I made a serious grocery hauler after breaking standard spokes and a heavy duty cargo rack that I had a custom cooler side mounted to. So after walking that thing home for miles I bought a heavier duty wheel to avoid it ever happening again. BTW I didn't see what size wheels are on the rear of the trike. 26ers are the strongest. I bought 26ers with 11 gauge spokes from bikeman4u.com which doesn't even exist anymore. Anyway, thicker spokes is the solution.
I'm looking for some clues as to how to build a trike as I was given a free frame by a bike shop owner but I'm not sure what I need to buy to make it work. It's a nice frame, it has a diamond steel plate for a rear bottom.
I'm also looking to build a trailer for my Ebike. I have customized it by using T bolts to bolt on a rear cooler because it's wider than normal sized cargo racks so neither they nor reg dual baskets would fit. Two folding Wald 582 baskets allow me to carry 30-45 items on a regular basis. I have no car. I'm all about the bike culture and have not burned a gallon of gas in almost 20 years.
Now it's time to play some rock superstar
KEVIN_THE_ULTIMATE 98% of the time it's playing kids bop lol
Nice suspenison setup on the trailer, I want to fix my homemade ttailer angle when I tow it with my fatbike. It leans too far back and I want it to be level. What setup should I go with? Its built off a normal Walmart frame and the rest was stripped off and custom built.
I would have to see what you mean and what you already have set up you can send pics to my email if you want and we can go from there liljay51884@gmail.com
Alaskan Malamute in the background? Got one too!
YGK yes that's Achilles
What kind of fork did you use for this had the same issue
That isn't a bicycle...
Super top mega
It has grown tremendously
wow - totally superior to any bike/trike trailers I've seen - very inspiring!
Is this the last video you've made?
I've made others but now the trike has been ripped apart and repuposed and the trailer got a complete rebuild and is now pulled by the off road wagons I built
@@liljay51884 yup - just saw your vid list.
Careful with that drag bike...it looks mean, lol.
That bike is long gone 😁
I am at an impasse with my bike trailers axel assembly I like how you did yours can you help me with my project and get me a parts list your help would be greatly appreciated
The trailer axel is just a steel rod welded into a piece of angle iron and then two pieces of angle iron are welded into that at an angle and bolted into the side of the wood I have angle iron welded to the top of the springs as well as the Springs welded to the axle and then there are screws that hold the top metal plates to the wood
I'm building a micro camper that I pull behind my mountain bike you got any input on electronics that I should use I would like to have a TV fan stereo and LED lighting how should I be able to control everything and power everything should I go solar or let me know what you think
It all comes down to the efficiency of the items that you are running batteries get heavy and unless you're talking about running a TV that will run 12 volts that means you're going to have to run an inverter inverters aren't that efficient unless you spend big money on them but they do sell some pretty large TVs that are designed for vehicles I would definitely run some solar because batteries are heavy and if you're just pulling this with a mountain bike most standard bicycle hitches can't handle that kind of weight wiring is pretty easy I try to run most of it along the underside chassis that way if you ever run into any issues you have much easier access to it and if you ever want ad something in the future it's easier to tap in wires always leave yourself extra other than that most of what I build just comes from my imagination I go through a lot of trial and error so plan is best you can draw blueprints it will make it a lot easier
This is hella cool. How long does the stereo last on that battery?
Orlando Perrone about 5 to 8 hours
Show de bola!
wouId it faII if you attached a IittIe engine? or wouId it be hard on the engine itseIf? My bike has a 65cc motor
There's the motor in the trike
it would look better if it was like a camper like close
try running the stereo off a motorbike battery they are much lighter
jye anderson there is to much running on it (alarm stereo amplifier leds running lights brake light compressor air horns ) it would kill a motorcycle battery very quickly
TOO MACH....TOO MACH ..
Hey I have just a stock bike trailer/stoller and I'm looking to put a real axle on it without breaking the bank as it gets speed wobble, wondering if you can point me in the right direction as you have a pretty nice setup
That's kind of a tough one I've never really had to deal with speed wobble because I'm usually not about speed I'm about power because I'm moving more weight they usually you can pick up a solid steel rod from your local hardware store for not too much
@@liljay51884 basically need a solid axle, these wheel attachments just go to the frame basically giving it less rigidity
Yeah I would look into just buying either a solid or even a hollow steel tube from home depot, Lowe's, or your local Steel Mart
sick trailer make my dayM KO
P
