Making my own EDC! - DIY Hidden Bike Tool

[@sp3edstr]

two words my friend. Shark Tank! I'd buy it.

[@hodgo1981]

Same, the simplicity compared to EDC is what the market wants. There is also granite designs make a top mounted one, but I dont like its multi tool.

[@TrailFeatures]

Pretty freaking clutch! You're still not helping me avoid buying a 3D printer. 😂

[@juliangoulding]

Stop procrastinating and just do it. I'm thinking of doing a gopro mount special next and seeing how many crazy views I can get in 48hrs. I'm sure thats something you'd be keen on?

[@aaritbabu3398]

Wow, amazing! I'm into 3D designing and I'm still not quite sure how you made that plug fit in the bottom of the fork but it looks awesome. Definitely going to print one. Great job!

[@adkmtb5046]

Fantastic design. I'm going to school for engineering right now and it's awesome to see some MTB product design and CAD. I'd love to try this out

[@juliangoulding]

Thanks Zach. What school?

T Handle wrenches are great when applying torque, but when the torque is not needed the the rotational motion is very awkward. You may want to check the Super T Handle with Metric Allen Set, compact with a unique spinning feature when torque is not needed.

[@nigeljohnson8022]

That is a clever piece of kit. Love to see how something is developed into a useable item. Stay save mate.

[@juliangoulding]

Thanks, same to you! Yeah thinking of working on it a bit more in the future maybe.

[@alexnewport8260]

Wow that looks great. Been looking at these type of things recently. The green matches my bike perfectly so would love one please. Keep up the great work and video's👍🏻

[@nickmcalinden5661]

That is a great tool!! I am going to have a go printing it and see how it goes! 😁

[@harelhov]

Thanks Julian, amazing idea! I took your 3D plans and printed (the plug only - FDM Nylon 12 low res 0.3 mmawesome

I would love one of those good job I have a giant anthem it has the overdrive 2 head tube so I think it’s 11/2 inches taper to a 11/4 stem

[@mikethomson6864]

This is awesome! Would love to see if you could add a tire plug kit to the top of this.

[@Untensuru.]

Do you have a link to what multitools will work with your download? P.S. badass design man, keep up the good work!

[@alejandrotretoromero8860]

Hello, the design is awesome... have you put it up for sale yet? I live in Las Vegas NV and trails here are really rough. I think here would be the perfect place to test it... I would like to get one, let me know how to get one.

[@bemf3549]

I printed this, just the basic one to see if it works and this week I took it down a trail where the small rocks where the size of a babys heads and the tool stash didn't budge. 💪

[@juliangoulding]

Haha nice. It's pretty surprising. Busy working on a 2.0 that should be even better....

[@davehedgehog4391]

Hi Julian, just discovered your channel, what an awesome introduction to it! Looking to get back into MTB after a long time (literally just bought a Cannondale SL3 today). and very excited to see selfless sharing of brilliant development. Here still in lockdown in Melbourne, it's a welcome thing. Absolutely would love to get my hands on one, but appreciate I'm probably too late. Subscribed and will be binge watching for the rest of the night no doubt. Cheers.

[@tiredtiger4669]

Amazing what you did there. Do you have an assembly and installation video?

[@grinellsmith]

Great idea! I wonder.. would you be willing to share the CAD file? I just got my first 3D printer and I'm an absolute novice but this seems like an ideal first print (and I also ride a Trek, a Fuel EX)

[@timothycamp8341]

Great video. Tip for the wheelies, need to go higher, find the balance point of your bike.

[@jeroenjeroenjeroenbb]

Wauw nice! You really made a good choice in the tools there! Would love one!

[@kieranrae]

you have the #dreambike. sweet plug design as well! very creative

[@whatthehuck9059]

Hi again. Sorry for the delay getting back to you and the short reply last night was too knackered too think. Forgot to click the Bell when I sub'd so only spotted your question last night. Hope you are getting slammed this weekend seemed like the whole of NZ was out and about. It is perfect Autumn weather to be out riding. My profile pix was taken at the start of the Timber Trail a few years back and was an "Epic" ride everyone should do. I've been watching your vids for a while now and am really keen to check out your camp for a day or two 🏕. You should do a short clip asking for sweet ideas to build (but I'm guessing your active imagination has plenty more swirling round in there😊) I would like to see your take on a rear carrier that is compatible with a full sus and a dropper post. Pretty dam tricky i guess with a printer. Thanks again for posting Cheers Andrew

[@spencersnodgrass6193]

If you don’t want to tap threads into your steerer tube get the smaller more affordable option that doesn’t require you to tap threads into your steerer tube the one up edc lite and also pretty cool tool you made there

Can you provide the cad file for a 'blank' of the section with the cutout for the tool? That way anyone can adapt it to fit whatever they want to. Great Design!

I uploaded one for you mate, it's in the thineverse link.

[@niketpatel9797]

@@juliangoulding Thanks, but could you provide the CAD (Fusion 360) file too? It is difficult to accurately edit STL as its a mesh file type.

[@juliangoulding]

@@niketpatel9797 I'm holding onto the Cad file for now. will maybe release it later so will let you know when I do. If you are having trouble editing a Mesh file, you can covert it to a Base feature. In Create, down the bottom, "Create Base Feature" then in "Modify > Mesh > Mesh to BRep" click on the mesh and the click "Finish Base Feature" Hope that helps.

[@cooper_sends21]

I would love one the one ups are expensive and can’t buy it anywhere

[@timsmallwood8181]

That’s awesome. I love the mash-up concept of the OneUp EDC and the Fork Cork. Have you considered using a more readily-available multitool, like the Crank Brothers M5?

[@timsmallwood8181]

Also, which chain breaker did you have in there?

[@juliangoulding]

That's a great idea! I'll have a look. this was just whatever I had lying around. not sure on the chaintool, it will be just the cheapest one around that we chuck in our rental kits.

[@ElRenoto]

that´s is just amazing! how is that surving after 1+ year of use?

[@leomolloy5067]

Awesome video!! your product design skills are getting next level. with the wheelie you actually need your seat down or halfway for balance(you want a low CG). And it may seem counter intuitive but you want to use the hardest gear you can get away with because low gears will make the pedal pressure twitchy.

[@juliangoulding]

Thanks! Yeah will try it tomorrow. Gotta get it dialed before the end of lockdown!

[@reynaldohermoso3638]

Great idea, how much would you sell the whole kit?

[@darrenallinson8147]

Hi Julian, i hoping to get it printed soon. Do you have any details of what multitool you used and what chain tool too?

[@juliangoulding]

It was a replacement specialized swat tool and a bbb multi tool. The best is to print just the plug part that I did first then you can throw anything up there in a sandwich bag. That's what I I've actually been doing for the last few months.

[@darrenallinson8147]

Julian - amazing build so well done. Would you be able to ship any to the UK? If not maybe share print specs so I can get a friend to attempt one for me.

Could you please tell me, whats the multi tool is? All in all awesome job!!

[@juliangoulding]

Specialized SWAT

[@connorhalpin2305]

these are awesome. Id buy one!

[@adamthomas1222]

Thanks for the idea but that plug thing you didn't actually need to design it since you can get an expanding stem top cap that would have done the same exact thing, only issue is that you'd need a tool to tighten and loosen it but I have a bit driver hidden in my hollowtech crank (all in multi-tool) to take it off and I also have a chain tool hidden in my handlebars (topeak ninja c)...so now all I needed to carry around was a couple of tyre levers. I know topeak makes a bottle cage that has tyre levers but it looks ugly compared to the carbon fiber bottle cage I already have. So all I did was to wrap the tyre levers around some velcro and shove it up the steerer tube and used the expanding top cap to keep it from falling out. Had to wrap velcro around the levers just enough so it'll be snug in the bottom of the steerer tube, so it doesn't rattle around.

[@philso7872]

Wow! That's a really cool project. In your next video, please do some close-up shots so we can admire the details. How many iterations did you need to get the plug to work to your satisfaction? I find people often lose patience and stop after too few iterations and then are unhappy with the results. Is the TPU you used to make the O-ring the stuff called "poly cord"? It's often used to make belts for material handling in factories. Did the tools rattle in the carrier? What did you do to stop the rattling? We really appreciated the ingenuity and the "do it yourself" attitude when we lived in NZ :-)

[@juliangoulding]

Thanks for the comment. I must of done about 10 prints to iterate the mechanism. The TPU is a flexible filament for the 3d printer. If you put the tools up there in a plastic bag then they don't rattle at all.

[@simonyoung6590]

This is cool would fit my treak

[@daviddorado5632]

Supercool my friend. Too bad i dont have a 3d in hand

All you need to do with the base cap is a rubber coated multitool or a deceased inner tube turned to a bag.

How’s the design co ing along? Ready for taking orders? I’m sure they would be fork specific installations.
