  • where can i get once??

    not the same but look at this ride..

    Hercules Cavallo

  • Song: Ghost K - Stop!

  • best swingbike vid on youtube,nice work guys!.

  • 0:45 HACKS!!! :P

  • Interesting bike, but the first minute or two had the most annoying editing I've ever seen in my entire life, and I've seen Crank 2: High Voltage.

  • Song

  • What song is this

  • nice evo :P

  • i have an old swhinn bike i found it and i got to buy it it took some time to paint and restor all the original parts! it beats all the bmx's on the block!

  • sweet only good vid can u guys ride unicycles???w8 ill just watch ur other vids nice ^_^

    squidz

  • @nimbuw I ride unicycles. On some of our  "cruises" I take the unicycle with a set of handlebars and a front wheel in hand so it looks like I am riding a swingbike until you notice there is no frame. haha

  • BAD ASS! I want one, I've never seen that before

  • u guys are bad asses

  • soooo sick! how much do you charge for one?

  • @MrBrandonbennningto1 we stopped making them for other people a while back. we are now making little ones for kids. Our prices ranged from 300-600. If you want to make your own and can do your own welding, let us know and we will help you find the parts you need.

  • my dad used to work for swingbike way back in the day. I have a bunch in the shed out back of his house in utah....... any idea what they are worth now days?

  • @ripbluerip original swingbikes are hard to come by. especially in original (good) shape. It all depends on the market (demand). I would expect to get anywhere from 300 to 600 per bike (same as what we were bringing in per bike).

  • @ripbluerip do you still have some? if you want to sell me one contact me: pschoerg4(at)gmail(dot)com

  • @Skythe84 i went out to my dads house because i finaly cleared a spot in my shed to put them all.....and they were all gone. I am so pissed off. no one can explain were they went but i think my dad threw them away. He even got rid of all the spare parts. 

  • my dad used to work for swingbike way back in the day. I have a few of them out in the shed out back. any idea what they are worth now?

  • this looks epic

  • where could i get one! they look like soo much fun

  • Awesome

  • anyway to get some plans to help me get started on my build ? I actually like the little gear system

  • They aren't real complex. How detailed do you want? An original swingbike had a 39" wheelbase axle to axle. These two have a 49" wheelbase. 20" rear fork and wheel. 26" front fork and 16" wheel. You will want the steerer tube for the rear fork to be tipped forward at the top some, but almost vertical. You will want the crank to be level or slightly lower than the rear axle. This will help make it stable. The seat post is basically a stem or gooseneck with an extention for the seat to bolt onto.

  • whats da name of this track

  • Also, mein echtes Swingbike (Balsbike) ist noch cooler !

  • Looks like a Snardlefarb producton

  • thanx guys. saw this vid a few years ago. put my own together today and rode it for the first time. sooo fun.

    Pete

  • @jnsbuggy1 Thank you. I think building your own is half the fun. I would like to see your creation. Please send me a picture.

  • what is the name of the song u used in this video

    and u sad at the end get your one how are they

  • @speedman480 The song is "Stop" by ghost k. it is a youtube freebie.

    I was building frames for a while. I am not really building any more, but you can email impala66k@hotmail.com. He has about 10 frames ready to go.

  • @speedman480 how much are they and if i do get one where are they going to be shipped from.

  • @speedman480 A guess would be about $200 per frame, but you will have to email impala66k@hotmail.com for an accurate price quote. It could be more or less. I think he is planning on painting some of them. I was including headset bearings he might not. They would be shipped from Utah.

  • drifting with a freeking bike.

  • what song is this?

  • @nocturnalx "STOP" blue mix by ghost k. It was the first song in the hip hop & rap section of youtube's free songs.

  • @wulfensteinster Thanks! I think it's a good song and goes nicely with the video. Thanks for posting it btw!

  • Nice!

  • I've just sent you an email. check it please.

  • I've just sent you an e-mail, check it =)

  • Sick are these hard to make

  • @Powerrider77 NO. They are not very hard to make. Send an email to the address in the video. I will send you pics ond measurements.

  • i noticed the guy riding backwards at one point in the video but it coasts in other parts. can this bike go both directions but coast as well? or did he just get pushed backwards. or did they reverse the video?

  • @megamindstorm101 I was coasting backwards. I kept my feet on the pedals so I wouldn't look even dumber with my feet off the pedals and the pedals swinging around. If I let my feet hang I can coast backward as long as there is a hill. I have ridden that orange bike I sent you a picture of backward for 1/4 mile or more.

  • @wulfensteinster oh ok :) well I heard these things are like unicycles with a front wheel so I wasn't sure.

    ps. orange bike is AWESOME :)

  • 2wheel steering lol

  • Had the pleasure of riding one of this a few years back... Thus video makes me want one bad

  • Can I get the designs you used to build it?

  • @MrTadaaaaaaaaaaaa

    If you build it yourself with old parts and can find scrap metal cheap, maybe $50-100. I have built much nicer bikes that have sold for $500+, but the bikes in this video were built using 98% recycled metal and bike parts from a metal recycling plant. The cables were the only things I had to buy new.

  • Where would we be without Bicycles? Of ANY type. Swing or not. Those bikes in the vid are awesome. Rather odd...but I don't think them to be as odd as "The Wheel", put out by Huffy, and I THINK Western Flyer back in the last 60s.

  • i will be fabbing one of these. where's my welder!??

  • haha, thats crazy... nice build!!

  • I wish i could buy one :-(

    Whats the name of the music please?

  • The song right now is so long by the volumes. I don't really like it, but I had to choose from the songs that youtube provides.

  • @wulfensteinster finally got mine! bought in the netherlands :D

  • holy crap look at the turning radeous!

  • my uncle has an original that me and my cousin both made a copy from. we learned on the original and to be honest if you rode one that the center bar was not bent and the rear tire has the centering spring takin off the ride is alot better. Change the bars to BMX bars and it will ride better. Five star rims make a difference too.

  • I can ride mine no hands (it swings away from centre, unlike the originals), but I tried an original once and it was tough. Bars stretched too far forward.

  • lol at mantaz808 dont you have anything better to do,these guys do a great job,and they are extremely helpful,,,keep it up guys,,,and thanks for the hand drawn plans,,,cheers richard

  • You are welcome Richard.

  • I have a really nice black swingbike for sale. $300 email me for pics if interested.

  • Sold.

  • I made one of these with my dad and i love mine!

  • Cool! Owning an original would be nice. I don't. Making them is more fun anyway.

  • Yh when i first saw one i thought it would be alot easier to make than it actually was! But thats what made it fun to make it.

  • We are working on a new video with more people and much nicer bikes. Keep watching!

  • you guys are not the best swivel bike riders and you dont make the best swivel bikes you guys just think your the best cause you neva see everyones swivel bike yet im not saying im the best but i sure can own you guys hawaiian style liven in da 808 and my swievl bike looks way better and works better then yours

    808 all day

    hawaii_5_0

  • Parts alone cost more than that.

  • CAN U BILD ME ONE??? ILL PAY 150!!!

  • $150? You can barely buy a regular crappy bike for $150.

    I have a budget of $1000 is anyone wants to build me a Lamborghini :-)

  • i got 2 crappy bikes for $30 and cut and welded one. it worked just as good as this. until somebody stole it:(

  • You said is correctly. YOU built it youself.

  • WHERE CAN I GET A SWING BIKE

  • me and my friend made 2 of those we made them different tho.

  • how much is the cheepest? i ride a unicycle and that looks like a loth of fun!

  • thats awesome. im looking for a custom man powered vehicle to build that is outside the box. this is very tempting

  • wow

    hard to describe

    those were some sick tricks

  • where can u buy one of these things.or did u make it ur self??

  • Send an email to the adsress in the video.

  • That's fun to watch. It essentially becomes a unicycle with an outrigger when maneuvering. Cool.

  • Thanks Guys! I guess it kind-of is like a unicycle with an outrigger. It's a LOT faster and easier to ride than a unicycle though. A five speed unicycle could be interesting...or dangerous.

  • love the bike

  • seg. 25 Nice..! 48..! 1:27 awesome haha buen videoo!! hehe bien divertido verme en una d esas! jejeje

  • COOL......

  • Thank you. I haven't done any parades, but I have done a lot of clowning. Swingbikes are a lot of fun. Keep it up!

  • Your swing bikes are a LOT better than the one I have. I only use mine for clowning and parades, but that's all I need it for. Scotomus
