- Welding project during this time of social distancing: Recycled a broken hand truck & a kid’s bike into a dually / mono wheel bike trailer. Mono wheel for pulling through narrow trails and paths. Dually so it won’t sink into beach sand. Now I can take my own folding chair anywhere, plus haul cargo. Practically, transforms a bike into a ‘pickup truck’. The hand truck was convertible to a dolly & made of 2 parts. This means the trailer overall length can be extended, able to take long cargo like lumber, canoes, surfboards, etc. I hope to replace the bin with a lockable plastic tote. Test at Boundary Bay dike and Centennial Beach, BC.
Great video. Thanks for posting... Soon as I saw Supercycle I knew this was Canadian...haha
i like watching People like yourself that Build there Own Trailer, i recently converted a Golf Bag Caddy into a Bike Trailer, i have put the Load so it is balanced and does not put all its weight on Bicycle, but then again the Cart is Light weight, with 2- 12inch tires, it had 3, 1 i would not need for it to be there, i made it Quick Release + safety strap.
Very nice. It seems to work well in rough terrain. It's a keeper. Have a great day.
Hi!
I'm from Brazil and your work inspired me very much. Thanks for this.
I'll see more of your works.
Congratulations!!!
Thank you, I’m in Houston Texas jealous of your weather in the video. Have been looking for diy bike trailer. This video has inspired me.
I believe you mentioned motorizing the trailer, I had picked up an e-scooter someone threw out. So that got the wheels turning in my head. I can almost visualize it, it almost builds itself. Thanks again…
Good score on that free e-scooter and good luck with the build.
Realmente maravilloso!!! Es el que más me gustó de todos los que e visto
Coincido , me voy a hacer uno
Sure like that duel but me I'm into length,how would u stretch it out....?
Thanks for commenting. The dual wheels are great for deep sand. Are you planning to trailer a surfboard? I would stretch it out by bolting on two long metal tubes. Maybe even PVC pipe, depending on cargo weight. Just have to ensure the inner diameter is large enough to insert the existing tubes on the trailer. No welding needed, just drill holes and bolt everything together. You can further reinforce with crossmembers (like a ladder).
Buena noche , muy buen remolque , una pregunta el compatimento de enmedio de la bicicleta lo hizo usted ??
Gracias. Sí, lo hice con pedazos de lámina de aluminio. Los detalles están en mis otros videos, comenzando con este, th-cam.com/video/5LuabXC8eOU/w-d-xo.html. Enlaces a otros videos relacionados en la descripción allí.
where did you get the battery cover from?
I made it with pieces of aluminum sheet. Details are in my other videos, starting with this one, th-cam.com/video/5LuabXC8eOU/w-d-xo.html. Links to other related videos in the description there.
Excellent work! What are those ends called that attach the trailer to your rear wheel axle?
Thanks. They are called heim joints or rod end bearings.
@@randphong Ah yes that’s right. So you’d get these from the auto parts store right? Thanks and look forward to more creations. I just put a Bafang SSHD on my bike too, and planning to build a cargo trailer
@@big_red_machine3547 Yes. I am in Canada so I got them from Princess Auto. You can get them on Amazon too.
@@randphong excellent. Do you just put a normal bolt through the end of the coupling? You must love BC by the looks of it! I looked those up, but I think I’ll try the M style air hose coupling idea first.
@@big_red_machine3547 Yes, First I bolted small plates to the existing holes on the dropouts. These already had threads in them. Then I ran bolts through the eyes of the heim joints into the plates. I also applied some low strength threadlocker.
where did u buy your panniers?
They are plastic ammo boxes. I wish they were a bit deeper though. I am in Canada so I got them from a local store.

If they are not available in your area you can probably get them on Amazon.
@@randphong greetings from porto velho rondonia, and thanks for reply, sorry with possible faults i dont know speak english very well
@@fernandosoares8619 Não tem problema, eu uso o Google tradutor!
São caixas de munição de plástico. Eu gostaria que eles fossem um pouco mais profundos. Estou no Canadá, então comprei em uma loja local.

Se eles não estiverem disponíveis em sua área, você provavelmente poderá obtê-los na Amazon.
