    2016 I began building my 4 wheel drive and 4 wheel steer pedal kart. My design was very different than anything else I’ve ever seen. I got the frame almost done before the Lyme disease I was treating in 2015 returned. It was moved to the other barn until I dismantled it almost two years ago. I’m looking for aluminum tube I can get inexpensively so I can start over on the frame.

    A great bike, sadly in my province of Ontario Canada this is not allowed,. Why because it has four wheels a bike can only have three wheels at most. Maybe I will build a three wheel version like British Morgan. But there are some beautiful French Cyclecars that could be revised to this design also. Maybe I could do a three wheel bike with children's training wheels on the back? You have captured that "French" Flare as well, or I guess it was always a Sweden Flare and I have been mistaken.

    • @FantomsNephew
      @FantomsNephew Год назад

      Thanx! Definitively a Frech flare on the rear seat/luggage compartment, that is severly inspired by Mochet. Maybe the police have some heavier criminality to look after than one wheel to many on a bicycle? …but that’s a gamble…

    • @brianferguson6278
      @brianferguson6278 Год назад

      No the rules are what there are, so best to work within them, three wheels is what it will be. Now what I am thinking is similar to your bike (Atomic Zombie Modified) in three wheels with a lite 3mm plywood skin on spruce 19mm square framing. You will note the two dimensional fabrication that would make it easier to work on this link. Just a longer total length than this motorized Kart. The only question I have is the main tubing size and thickness? Can you provide what tube size you used for your main and steering tubes. The balance of my design I have figured out from the CyclceKart build sites. I have a mid drive Cube Kathmandu EXC E-bike so still not sure of mid drive or hub on this build, 500 watt is max we are allowed in Canada. ruclips.net/video/f7m3Q8fRNPc/видео.html

But if you purchase four different bike plans it's only $19.00 for all four, so being the "cheap" Canadian I purchased four different designs. And 700 pages later my second hand printer finished the print out. The 40 x40 x 1.5 box beam seemed too lite to myself, so I thought I would ask how you did your bike. But from what I can see it appears to be more than OK. You have great Ice, Strong Black Ice that Ice Boats love, maybe a DN iceboat in your future?

    Hello phantom I have watched this video many times. It is a great inspiration to me. I am going to try to build something similar using the streetfighter design from atomic zombie. I am curious to know if you experience a lot of road vibration with four wheels and no suspension?. It is indeed an elegant design. Well done! Big fan in Boston

    • @FantomsNephew
      @FantomsNephew 2 года назад

      Hello! Thanxalot,! Glad U liked it! There are some vibrations sure enough, but that depends (of course) on road quality. I am blessed with smooth (mostly asphalt) on my ordinary routes. Hence, vibrations are not an issue. On the odd shortcut or in the winter, however, one has to take it easy. (Check out my Frostbite video: ruclips.net/video/0fPBUtMRlNI/видео.html) So; If (when?) there will be a MkII I think I will add suspension to the rear wheels, which carry the better part of the weight. …but no suspension is easier to build and I do not regret the way I made it on this ride! It is more fun with a simple contraption on the road than an half built over engineerd solution in the workshop! 😁 If I could I maybe would put on fatter tires. But unfortunately (I prefer to call it) there is no room for that, the space between rear wheels and fairing is to narrow. Have that in mind in your design process! I you haven’t been there yet, I highly recommend the building forum @ Atomic Zombie. Loads of helpful people! Happy building!

    • @dandeangeli9860
      @dandeangeli9860 2 года назад

      Yes that is super helpful thanks for getting back to me. I have downloaded plans for the street fighter from atomic zombie which looks to be a much lower version and perhaps narrower than phantoms nephew? The original streetfighter is definitely too low and too narrow for my needs. I hope to make a four wheeled vehicle possibly with suspension .9 meter wide and 2.4 meters long. It seems that pudding fat or tires on the device will be simpler than trying to create suspension in the rear
