In this video, I take the Cyberdrop electric-powered bicycle camper south from NYC, chasing the warmer temperatures. If I've met you along the way, thanks for the conversations and camaraderie - it's kept loneliness at bay!
Heading south through New Jersey, Delaware, and into Virginia. Before I could get to Virginia Beach, I had to find a way across the Chesapeake Bridge-Tunnel (no bicycles allowed). The police come to my aid and get me across the bridge, but I really thought the whole rig was going to fly off the truck for a few minutes there.
My repaired rear hub motor has been shipped back by Grin Technologies, and I should be back to full power for the mountains coming later in the trip.
Issues I'm working on:
-Cyberdrop head tube creak/play.
-Bullitt Grin All Axle front hub motor shuddering and cutting out sometimes during regen braking
-One Cycle Analyst giving random watt readings and affecting power being sent to the motor
-Sourcing wider rims for rear Cyberdrop wheels so I can put fatter tires on them and hopefully reduce instances of broken spokes.
I'm learning a ton and meeting all sorts of fascinating characters along the way. I'll have to feature them more in upcoming videos.
See ya!

Interesting to see the urban obstacles that you encounter and subsequently overcome, largely by the friendliness of strangers. Loving every episode 👍

Hi Jeremy, I suggest that you get yourself to Harbour Freight or want whatever iron monger is in the area. Get some heavy duty hooks for the underside of the trailer for tie down . Such as needed for the recovery truck that took you across the bridge. Thomas in Kent England

I was thinking about how much you would charge for this if it was on the market. The bike and camper sounds fun to have for hunting and fishing.

Yeah! I have to find a way to bring the price point down and still have a modest profit margin. Working on it.

I guess that's what you were after but so far your camper seems to be more problems than benefits. I think you were better off either with an non-cargo ebike and a tent or an EV with a teardrop trailer. The Polydrops P17A1 teardrop trailer looks similar to yours and even comes with 9.6kWh of battery power. How are you keeping the whole thing charged? You are plugging-in at libraries? Are the solar panels enough? What are you gonna do in Latin America where the electrical outlets might be iffy?

I was inspired by the angles of the Polydrop trailer. There’s a learning curve with everything. I’m sharing the problems, but overall I’m thrilled with it.

The cargo bike is a big win. Massive battery not really possible otherwise. Towing weight distribution counts too. This, or at least much shorter, trips should be doable with just the cargo bike and tent + electrical cooking gear. The trailer at least helps with autonomy/charging, and can get out of the rain quickly, or camp in the rain/cold much more comfortably. My vote is that he should have brought his old dog.
