The Red Arrow

[katerin959]

hey amigo por casualidad tienes lo planos me gustaria hacerme una de esas o talvez pasarme las medidas y los materiales ** me ayudas **

[sanctuarysucks]

great video....how long did it take to learn to weld before you built this?

[ilivefortheone]

@sanctuarysucks learned wielding in night school some 30 years ago, would have preferred a mig wielder, those are much more expensive and I rarely use it.

[goriverman]

loved your video you sure dud a great job on that trike

[leteveryoneknow]

@ ilivefortheone. Nice! How much does it weigh? And how fast can you go?

[ilivefortheone]

@leteveryoneknow mine weighs just over 50 lbs. a bit more after "slimeing" the tires. I got tired of fixing flats on the trail. Fastest I've ever recorded is 30.3 mph, but, I suppose that has more to do with the motor "me" than the trike.

[leteveryoneknow]

@ilivefortheone Thanks! 

[aroqsi]

Beautifull byke, and great job. But you made too many transitions in between the photos

[the0hatusa]

hermoso video, la música, el diseño de la bici, el ambiente familiar de todo.

[baobermeier]

cool bike this. How did the second song? it's great - feel's like a biking summer :-)

[CitizenOvTheWorld]

So good to see

[sevlagor2008]

Привет ! посмотрел Ваш лигерад, классный. есть пару вопросов, 1-й из чего сделали раму, и 2-й какую максимальную скорость смогли на нём разогнать (ну естественно я имею ввиду максимальную скорость на ровной поверхности). Заранее большей спасибо, если ответите, УДАЧИ.

[ilivefortheone]

@sevlagor2008 Я надеюсь, Google переводит это хорошо, кадр из дюймовый с четвертью мягкой стальной коробке, я бы perfered chromoly или титана, но, я работал с тем, что у меня на руках. Кажется, достаточно жесткие для меня, но все же мотодельтаплан весом 52 фунтов. Что касается скорости на ровной serface, у нас очень немногие из тех, здесь, в Колорадо и габаритные скорость больше о них Легс, что мотодельтаплан, но, мне удалось добраться до около 30 миль / ч.

[ThePadrewu]

Very cool that you made your own- good job!

[dudeontherun83]

these bikes are great but i have a bunch of big electric motors around and i could probably use a motor instead of peadling and to have it shift has any1 tried this or have any plans??? help!

[ilivefortheone]

@dudeontherun83 There are plenty of stuff on YouTube about motorizing bikes or trikes however, for me the point is to pedal as much as possible...for my health.

[TheBreamfisher]

hey mate can you please tale some pics of the stering system. im going to make 1 for fishing

[ilivefortheone]

@TheBreamfisher Please see the web site listed under the video

[853phile]

Queen's bicycle ride song is so corny. I cringe everytime I hear it.

[ilivefortheone]

@853phile Don't listen

[ilivefortheone]

@853phile that's what the mute button is for!

[ynkoya]

Hi, I´m from Brasil and I´ll make an red arrow too.

[illchilla09]

Hi,I was wondering where you got the plans to build this particular bike?I could not find them.Thanks

[12345senoj]

thank u for reminding me of that song bicycle i lost my mp3 and forgot what songs were on it

[rongpockle]

Nice work. Triangulating the rear dropouts to the seat would make that rear end a lot stiffer and stronger.

[VMATT500C]

Nicely done.

[Traxmot1]

I really like your 3-wheel design. i just built my own design, very different to yours. Would like to talk to you and share ideas and pictures.

[ROYALITARIAN]

fist song was really coo;

[12345senoj]

@ROYALITARIAN its called bicycle by i think queen one of my fav songs

[kapitanwasyl]

[disndat11]

Excellent video!

Why is your garage so clean?? LOL

[reginaron]

Cool Mustang!

oh yeah nice red ride too.

[ilivefortheone]

As a former 66 owner I completely agree!

[jimwisneski]

Wonderful job, good to see a homemade one. Would and wanting to do the same, full suspension and tilting front wheels. And a great video production, cool soundtrack as well. Who sings the second song?? "Charlie Davidsons Tricycle Club?"

[ilivefortheone]

Parker Bent, Tilting and suspension adds weight, complexity and cost that I did not want on my first try. I wanted to build with what was easy to get used. I have made many upgrades and am thinking about a coil over shock to take the place of the rear seat post.

[raftmant]

Thats my idea too, Tilting system comes from the video: Jetrike-how it works. It doesnt add very much weight. Rear suspension i try to invent something on myself. Good luck on yours.

[geepcj2a]

Man, that's beautiful!

[tomcatfranks]

ilivefortheone, what is that black tubing holding the lower half of the chain made from?

[ilivefortheone]

plastic hose used for underground sprinkler (thin wall)

[quahogwi]

You wouldn't happen to have built a web page detailing the build, would you? I'd like to know more about the build. By the way, the video is great.

[ChrisLuxembourg]

Great idea, good ingeneering & excellent work!

If want, look at my page...

CU, Chris

[CDickFly]

That video has "Americana" all over it. I thought it was great! Especially considering I have a red trike and am a crazy archer as well..

[ariasky1994]

hey, thats the coolest homemade trike i have ever seen. it hard to believe thet its homemade. during technolgy we havee to build somthing for our final project and i think im gonna build one of them :D would it be possible if you could tell me how to build it? if you could that'd be awsome
