Great stuff, the more vic and aus made product the better. The only competing product I see is ISI, I see strengths and drawbacks in both designs but yours is by far a more refined system. I've got the ISI and I love it, but if I was in the market now I reckon i'd be going with this.

And also my 7 yr old daughter that just won the yr 1 science and technology award at her school who has a rang of learning issues just lov d how you talk d about your failures and how you redesigned after each.

@@DesignedandBuilt good on you boys for giving it a red-hot go. Just on the iSi rack, iSi eliminated the traditional contact issues that you've clearly encountered previously well over a decade ago. Essentially zero contact movement and high mass at the interface in conjunction with a unique vibration activating rubber developed by iSi and Australia's leading polymer laboratory. @michaelbarnett2077 and @bbggakkba you can relax and enjoy the journey guys. Same with lights - iSi light board or whatever hanging off the back - easy. Now to the issue you'll face over time Richard(s), is that crank holders that were popular on shuttles over a decade ago, kill BB bearings when made to stabilse a bike. Stationary BB balls will cause fretting under oscillating loads - which is one reason crank holders were eliminated from bike racks a long time ago. Give the test rig a go at 10Hz - 30Hz with fairly sharp load ramping and then give the bikes a pedal or two - you'll see what I mean. Anyway, hope it all goes well boys. I'm dig'n the energy.

Something that came to my mined is the materials your using in terms of elastic-plastic-failure. Is your welded areas are your failure areas due to dynamic loading, would you consider a spring hinge or shock absorber? Trucks trays use simple springs within floating plates to allow twist and shock to reduce stress. Your rack could have an adjustable spring / shocky to cater for the lever of 2 or 4 bikes

Very cool design! Suggestion for the elastic loop: If you mount it upside down in the T-bracket (with the ball down) it will be easier to keep it out of the way of the tires. When securing it you pull it around the bracket and the wheel and when you release it the elastic pulls itself back into the 'off-position'.

Love it. Great Video and great product. I develop products for the Australian 4wd aftermarket too and know how difficult and painfull the process can be, but also how incredibly rewarding it is too. I do have a question though. You mentioned legalities. How did you get around the maximum legal overhang rules? The research I did when looking into it found that barely any vehicles on the market today satisfy the 60% overhang rules with a bike rack, and of the dual cab utes, i dont think any did. My Colorado only has something like a few hundred mm at most.
@DesignedandBuilt
@DesignedandBuilt 18 сағат бұрын
Hey Mate, for Victoria the maximum overhang is the minimum of either is 1.2 metres or 60% of the wheelbase (almost always 1.2M) . If it exceeds that you must have a warning signal visible during the day. Depending on the width of the handlebars on 4th bike on the rack you may need the signal to comply.
@Xander_1709
@Xander_1709 14 сағат бұрын
@DesignedandBuilt hey, thanks for the response. From what I could find, the maximum overhang in Vic, is 60% wheelbase, or 3.7m, the minimum of, with anything over 1.2m needing a flag or light. But more so that the rear overhang is measured from the rear axle. So while my limit on the Colly is around 1800 at 60% of 3080, most of that is used by the distance from the axle to the back of the tub and rear bar. After that it was like 200-400mm.

Why not make some sort of padded seesaw cradle that holds the down tube of the frame? Have it attach at that point with elastic bands and a shackle ratchet padlock that can secure the frame to the seesaw saddle. On the swivel point of the seesaw which would be a bolt and nut with no hex ends but rather a hole through the ends where the shackle ratchet lock goes through securing all together so it can’t be undone. That way the weight of the bike is mostly secured centrally and not on the tyres. The tyres can still be secured with straps and would reduce the possibility of tyre tray supports breaking.

Lots of R&D. Vertical bike rack is still a lot more practical. Less overhang, much easier to get your bikes off the back, can fit more bikes, etc.

They are great however they also have a worse departure angle, heavier, harder to store, sits above the roofline, harder to load, harder to fit number and lights Horses for courses! Room for both style of racks and it just depends which meets your needs better!

@DesignedandBuilt agree that they do sit above the roof line, but the departure angle of 2+ bikes stored horizontally would be greater than 1-6 bikes stacked vertically. You also have other benefits, such as no frame rubbing or ability to grab any of your bikes at a time. As for lights/numberplate holder. Light board similar to what you use for a boat works fine. Attaches to the rear wheels so it's roughly same height as vehicle lights too. Problem with difficulty loading (for the shorter people) would be resolved with a rear tilt option.

@@tenfeetwanderers774 Yes agree, the platform will have a better departure angle. We also don't have any frame rubbing, not quite true with a vertical as sometimes you have to load/unload from end to end depending on the sizes of a bike. Lightboard is an added hassle/thing to forget! The rear tilt option still requires a lot of heavy lifting and not everyone can physically do it. I have run vertical for years but stopped carrying more than 2 bikes when we all got our own cars, so platform suits me much better now especially given we are camping off road the majority of the time. Definitely cases for both!!!

3:20min in, covers the same experience I had in my jeep where having a horizontal frame between the ground and my bike saved me a set of expensive wheels at the least. Scraping the snot out of my rack was far far preferable to folding up my rear bike wheel going up to the trailhead. If I had an RV a vertical rack would get all my family's bikes up and out of the way while staying protected, but I'm really glad I had my Thule underbar to protect my bike on my short wheelbase YJ. Like he said, horses for courses imo too.

The Adventure bike rack also features a rise in the hitch! The touring has more rise given the extra length behind the car.

Exactly right, I have found it so interesting that people are willing to spend $20K on a bike and then build backyard carriers which don't look stable at all 😂

Is this clickbait or did it really take two whole years and 17 attempts to make a bike rack?
