Fantastic! A shockingly dangerous bike requiring 5 times the effort to go as fast as a toddler on his hands and knees.

[@cgstz]

Also, I would like to watch it going uphill...😂

The perfect example of "just because you can doesn't mean you should".

Over a million views in less than three days is his should.

[@danieltremayne2267]

It makes me sad that I watched this and contributed towards encouraging this fucking pointless shit

[@jamisonjamisonx]

Ah yes! I too want to struggle with pedaling 10x harder for significantly less forward movement!

[@soliniv1411]

And the bonus risk of losing limbs

[@cgstz]

...let alone going uphill...

[@stupidocanerosa]

Ludicrous speed!!!

[@richardlindsay2804]

I love watching these magical DIY videos. Yeah,you can rattle up one of these in no time in your kitchen, with your welder, programmable metal cutting router table and about another grands worth of tools that just happen to be lying around....😂😂

Right, oh ya let me just get my table out because i have an extra laying around

What a great idea, perfect for NYC

[@Brian_S.]

That 2nd bike was legit love the back wheel. I would love to see it rock with 2 of 12.0 high output batteries I'm sure it be lit af

[@bytejourneycodes]

What would the range be with the small ones they used?

[@clomputech]

​@@bytejourneycodesTaking in mind the weight of the bike/ person... Less than 5 minutes for sure.

Such easy DIY! You just need thousands of dollars for a dozen of specialized tools and equipment and some year of experience wielding, painting, electronics and hours and hours of free time. Gosh! Anybody can do this!!

Props to that guy

[@Quazar-e6f]

WOW did you see the speed of that propeller bike, amazing,he went right into the kitchen and sliced up all the potatoes for Mom ,if it wasn't for that bike there would be no sliced potatoes to eat,

[@cyntar556]

Totally awesome!!❤❤❤

[@EnginEvren]

Good ideas. 👍 I think it looks better when you add softly lit to the skateboard.

[@UtahJobSeeker51]

So all I need is $100,000 or more dollars (US), a $big shop, and unlimited income to make these experiments. 😮😮😮

[@htijohnson]

Honestly, no, not for the metal fab parts. Just some Amazon welder, grinder, and a few other stuff. You could do what he does

[@Medabee8]

Here I was hoping that it would have a propeller in the back to make it go faster 🤣

[@kennypayton8833]

All of the incredibly detailed workmanship, competent skill, and apparent availability of every necessary tool and bro spraybombs the bike... in a ventilated paint booth at that! 🤯...😂🤣😂 That's just freaking awesome , hats of to you 👍

[@sthaviuswolf]

All this experience, all this hard work , get you my ma. This is bullshit.

[@cgstz]

...all of it wasted on idiotic ideas...

[@markgarland9000]

Considering the sour note of some of the comments I've seen, I believe I can hear those inner voices saying "..man, I wish I was intelligent enough to be this creative!"

[@aloksuraj]

Perfect bike, the design is very cool and pretty stable..this should be considered for mass manufactured

[@TheGoatShowMan]

Very cool build. Just don't get it wet!

Gives new meaning to the term "reverse engineering ".

Great bikes

[@Gonepostal00]

Awesome

[@JR_is_JR]

What a weird way to put wheels on axles. Also, that "long board" was on the edge of folding in half.

[@xadev9848]

Haha that's true, it nearly "snapped" 😅

[@CB27]

Think you need some gears for the 1st one so can go faster with less pedalling. Not sure what the advantage is vs a normal bike though? The skateboard looks like it would break dangerously in the event of a crash. I like the Boris the animal bike

[@braddowns17]

The first one. Twice the cardio without the dangerous speed of the bike😆😂🤣

[@axelthelad]

The first one is just an irl creation of the bike from kiki's delivery service I believe, I don't think it's supposed to be truly functional

[@michaelandrewolaso1369]

❤great

[@joewoodchuck3824]

The propeller bike shows promise and is very cool. Looks like some gear ratio change is needed though. I'm scratching my head on the second one though. Mainly that I don't see what the car tire contributes to operation. The negative effect it may have is increased rolling resistance. Or maybe it was done just for aesthetics. I assume the skateboard uses polycarbonate plastic. Acrylic is probably too risky. The extra money for polycarbonate is worth the difference in performance. Nice builds otherwise.

[@kvarnerinfoTV]

He is great craftsman but all his rides are useless.

[@joewoodchuck3824]

@@kvarnerinfoTV Even modern engineers and Da Vinci had failures. It's an interesting journey of discovery along the way to eventual success. Remember the Hubble telescope? Hmm? Perhaps you are perfect at design, so you wouldn't understand.

[@notheorytrue]

Sure dude. Wish you the best.

[@jefferyshall]

The only thing I learned was that they make an actual tool to put the pin back in a bike chain. I’ve always used a nail punch to get it out and channel locks to put it back in. Second bike was cool though.

[@thatlittlevoice8292]

I learned that I should spend less time watching random KZbin videos.

[@Biker.Adam22]

What 3rd world country are you in?

[@JohnDoe-mf5db]

0:23 you forgot to add a large bike cassette on the main pedal shaft.( leave it for the strong man)

[@EricMarquardt-ku4hj]

What kind of welder do you use in this video?

[@blueturbobike]

What brand of cnc you use?

[@Quazar-e6f]

The propeller bike use to go 30 miles an hour ,now it goes 5

[@mamertoprochina8938]

Hi, i like the bike, may i know how much would it cost, if delivered in Davao City, Philippines?

[@bernelnery2191]

I could have given you my old ceiling electric fan blades 😅😅😅😅

[@milosavage3214]

Hi there. Cool video. What end mill and speed/feed do you use on your cnc for cutting the aluminium propeller blades? You seem to get a great cut. I have a CNC with the same Makita spindle and haven't been brave enough to try cutting aluminium on it yet. Cheers

[@dabooge]

Why do people always say that? I have several Industrial cnc machines in my garage (plasma lathes and mills) and I know several others that do also. All of my old machines were fine mechanically but I rebuilt the dead controllers to PC based control. All the info to do these retrofits can be found here on KZbin.

[@cyntar556]

​@markdavert3063 😅😅 that's a fact

[@petevannuys5642]

Yeah I am agree with you 😌

[@daytimetundra7757]

Why front wheel drive for the chopper bike? Why not rear wheel drive for more traction.

cool, man...

If this was 1890 he'd be sent to a mental home😅

First ones inspired by Kiki's delivery service

El borde de la patineta podría ser rellenado con espuma expansible y asi aislar la humedad,ngenioso truco está bueno

DIY, everyone has 1 of those cutting machines in their shed.

[@williamyoung617]

What kind of rear rack are you using on the back of the bike?

[@robbiramli1378]

i was imagining the propeller bike would be used in water. i'm devastated. 😭

[@cbb9580]

Where can l buy one ?

[@nxesr]

What with all that additional weight and the tyre what was he thinking?

[@randycollins7008]

1st bike would have been cool as some type of watercraft, however that would have been one huge prop. 2nd bike very cool bike awesome idea 3rd skateboard had a lot of bend... not good. All in all great skill and ideas maybe need more research and development. Enjoyed watching the video.

[@ccff6161]

One way to make car drivers give you a wide berth!

[@anim8ted923]

Overall great job. But I'll bet those flat propeller blades waste 50% of your energy. One reason the Wright brothers flew before any one else was their efficient propeller design.

[@nilobeebee]

Why bother making big tires for the rear wheel but the motor is on the front wheel?

[@clomputech]

The propelled bike looks so dangerous and the skateboard will mess up once it gets wet. But yeah, they have creativity.

[@AndrewStokes1966]

Pretty sure these are all fails

[@korodski]

Ignorant comment

[@Mungowongo]

Question : What's the purpose of the propeller on a bicycle?

[@axelthelad]

I believe it's a recreation of the bike in kiki's delivery service, so that reason rather than functional I think

[@joelgarcia-zc9dk]

Why you cut through a brand new tire was busted on the side?

[@zjoesmoe2670]

[@brettbarager9101]

Not sure that this can be considered a DYI project since the vast majority of people don't have access to a CNC machine or an arc/mig/tig welder. Way cool vid but not sure what the point is. Seems like a lot if work for very little gain.

[@benbarwick41]

So what part of this was diy... Other than the spray paint? Lol!

[@castortoutnu]

It's genius, this way your acceleration is not limited by tire grip ! If you pedal hard enough you can accelerate quicker than any normal bicycle

[@J0HNKR66]

Yeah cos all general DIY people. Have those Manufacturing tools and equipment ready to go in their garage 😂😂😅
