Compact Cargo Bike / Cycletruck
Ғылым және технология
This Mini cargo bike was a bit of an experiment, I wanted to practice welding aluminum and also try out if widely available alloys would be strong enough for a cargo frame. So I picked a pretty old MTB frame for this and converted the front for a 20" fork and added a removable cargo rack as well as disc brake mounts.
The tubing I used is AL-6060 because I can't get my hands on high strength alloys (yet.) I use 5356 filler wire and I suspect the frame is 6061 but I can't verify it. I don't do any heat treatment. I have used this bike for a month, it's strong enough to carry an adult in front and I haven't had any issues with cracking. The handling is super snappy!

@Rob M Then, you should watch the DiResta channel
Being able to store the bike standing on the luggage rack is an excellent idea for saving space or performing maintenance on the tyres and drivetrain.
Watching you work on this is truly therapeutic...
This is a work of art! Amazing bike and an amazing video. Good job!
I was watching this and thinking this is amazing every single person that makes DIY cargo bikes can weld so well and then I realized, you make the other bike also
What a killer project! Looks awesome.
Dude! That's pretty impressive build!
Oooh. I like that you take the time to make your metal all shiny and nice. I definitely would not.
Bravo bravo ! Très très beau boulot. Un travail de vrai professionnel.
Super gemacht! Great videos!!
One of the most handsome cycletruck buildsi have seen. Great video . Great design. Hope you make more videos for us thanks

Stem and Bars are spot on!
I fricken love the sound of machines during timelapse.
Beautiful build! May thy be blessed by the Retrogott!🙏
really nice paint and metal work!! and great final with beluga airbus!!
Anxiously waiting for your recent bike build bro!!
That ' s easy. I could make that too if i had a tig welder, drill press, band saw and your TALENT. nice bike. Thank you for sharing?!
Very fine work!! Looks sooo good 👍
Building a frame is a dream of mine. Nice work!
Amazing work! Love it!
another cool build! way to go, man
Huge dude... Congratulations 👊👊👊
Great craftsmanship!!
ole phil, hes pretty good. precision but simple. Notice the bolts and welding, just like my 10 car hauler, Bolted & welded at factory, stuff stresses.
Fantastic, Phil !!!
Super cool build. Lovely welding.
Amazing process!
Really amazing work!!!
Sick bro! Love the build!
wow, great craftsmanship
I love it ! Perfect job
Fantastic project !
I love this channel. Would like to see the bike with front and rear 90mm sturmey-archer drum brakes. You da man! Great build.

Why would you want to see it with those brakes ?
I really like your cargo bike projects. Would like to see you build an ice cream trike cargo bike. I’m wanting to build one for hauling grandkids around. Thanks for the ideas and videos
I wish I had the skills, the tools and the workshop to do all this !

how many amps you use for welding aluminum?
@PhilVandelay
7 жыл бұрын
It depends on the thickess and some other things. I usually use a foot pedal whenever possible for Aluminum so I can't say exactly. But for this Material (2mm mostly) I use something around 80-90 Amps.

Hab das Ding 2020 schon nachgebaut, und trotzdem guck ich das Video ständig wieder :D
Nice build!
You are a artist Man! Your bike It's great! 🤩
Love watching your videos !
eine wahre freude, deine vids zu schauen! gruesse aus potsdam!
Nice one. Cool workshop dude
Cooles Teil! Deine Arbeitsweise sieht sehr professionell aus!
Super Job!!!
That is so awesome!
Great work
amzing work
Nice job bro!
Super cool build! You may experience a stress fracture on the rear triangle if you do not reinforce this area. This is due to the downward bending force the brake caliper puts on the frame, which was strong enough to break my modified titanium frame. A bar from the forward bolt to the seatstay should strengthen this enough that you won't see problems long-term. Lots of current hard-tail designs incorporate this feature.

Yeah I know a lot of people put them in, so far I've never had a problem without it so I'm usually too lazy to do it.. I guess It'll take a broken frame for me to learn the lesson 😅
Que genial! So cool! Contrast for this work
Just seeing this. instant subscribe. this is so cool!!
bright idea you the man
Você é um artista, parabéns.De Cuiabá MT Brasil.
It’s little projects like this that just make me wish I could weld sometimes!
Very nice job ! I would love to see you building a mini max version .I have been bicycling in this model for about 8 months and I have had so much fun . The best and most beautiful ,models of Omnium bikes . Very fast , manoeuvrable , and light .It is incredible , but also very expensive .😔

That actually has been on my list of want-to-builds :) I agree the mini max is a great format, very versatile. It's really tricky to bend tubes that size though which is mostly what has kept me from doing it.
Haha, listening to Chancha via Circuito at 1:00! Great work of course!
nice work by vandelay industries
Well done excellent job
Good job!
great job!
I like your style!
This might be my dream frame !
Awesome video!!!!!
Awesome! I want one!

ok just finished the vid. I have to say I loved it, such craftsmanship. I liked that you bothered to create your own caliper mounts, when I guess you could have just used normal brakes. well done man.

Ficou top! Parabéns!!
Great videos mr phil, continu & sharing, i hope you have plan available for this built, give us a link., tjanks, joe.
Nice bike
Very creative 👍😉👍
I think if I were doing that I might clamp the head tube and extension to a piece of angle iron to line them up, then do a couple of tack welds to hold them in alignment before doing the final weld joint. Over all, I'd say that's some pretty good workmanship.

Yeah that's a good method if both tubes have the same OD
That look nice bro
to watch that tools and facilities, seems that i have to buy my used car to afford :D
Super Arbeit :)
Beautiful work, the only thing I can't understand is the inner tubes on the rack....
Very Good
