Riding Cheapest Handmade Iron Scooters of Indonesia

[@andayimushenye9839]

Growing up in the Third World taught me two lessons. 1. Do what you can with what you have from right where you are. 2. Since I cannot have what I like, I like what I have. If you look at life this way, half of your battles and stresses are over.

Don't worry Jase I'm with you dude. "Pimp my Trike" or "Mad Max meets Bali." In Thailand that sort of engineering is called "Thai Style" by the farang. I have also seen a Drag Race Team in Thailand called "Safety 5th" and flip flops are called "Thai Safety Boots". But Thailand like most Asian countries are extreme polluters of this world compared to the west. China is over the top bad. Have a good one. 👍

The clutch design of the train's belt drive is impressive and smart, so simple yet effective, i'm stokedd. To engage the clutch just slide the whole engine away from the axle to tighten that belt putting tension on it, ito open the clutch slide the engine forward a bit. Clever.

[@TheBeefSlayer]

Same thoughts exactly! 😂😂😂

[@chE3z1]

Most self-propelled lawn mowers have a similar system

[@nopadelik9286]

@@chE3z1 had to do some google / youtube research to see and understand what you reffered to, and yes, there's some similarities on how the clutch works with the belt friction, true. And was interesting to see and learn how they implemented it on lawnmowers. But still by far not as genius as that "train's" simple belt drive consisting of only three parts (engine, belt, axle) and the brilliant idea of a movable engine. It's even kind of self-adjusting, still works fine with worn out belts from the scrapyard ^^, thanks for pointing me at the lawnmower belt drive, just learned something new 👍
