anglia4 Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 MEGA EDIT: Have changed the name of this thread from my tandem build so now its for my bikes in general. Quote
anglia4 Posted June 17, 2011 Author Posted June 17, 2011 Design thoughts? The green sections are what I will need to add to the frame Quote
Leebo3 Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Sweet, do it. I think the shape of that white one is neat, with the whole twin top rails. Me and Smellan saw a real old BSA or something in an antique shop that was designed for one girl and one boy. Quote
ThePog Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Design thoughts? Stop using autocad. Edit: sorry that was unduly harsh, it is just that a little part of me dies when I see autocad in use... Quote

Whats wrong with autocad??? I could have used solidworks and done a full solid model of the whole thing but I only wanted to know what lengths of steel needed to be added motrax kit inbetween?i like it, i want to build a quad to race at taupo (weird but i want to make cycle fags look stupid by beating them on lol worthy machine). I really wanna ride this thing to a party after I've built it and then offer a chick a ride home Quote
ThePog Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 I like the bottom one better, the rear handlebar mount can be a stem off the seat post like you have. the frame will be cleaner looking then. I have a MIG you can use if you want. Quote
anglia4 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 Yeah I like the bottom one better too, flatmate was trying to talk me into just welding the headtube of the rear bike onto the seat tube of the front bike but i reckon it would just make it way way way way tooo short for the rear bike. Lou is short but not that short haha. I've got a shitty little gasless mig here that I had planned to use for it, its not great but i can get a decent looking weld out of it. Also from time to time there is a guy here with a tig set welding my flatmates race car, so if I time it right... Quote
KKtrips Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 You should make the handlebars half way down the front seat tube and its all human centipede spec so passengers mouth is uncomfortably close to the drivers bum... Quote
xsspeed Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 ^ actually lol'd/snorted at work - got weird looks from my peers Quote
Steelies Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 ditch rear handlebars, frontman's moustache will suffice Quote
Steelies Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 sorry its not constructive in the slightest.. but yeah, cant wait to see this thing in action. can you make it 20 speed? or 100 speed Quote
anglia4 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Posted June 22, 2011 haha I wondered if that was what you meant but had seen "moustache bars" for sale on the internet earlier. 100 speed would be awesome but sadly in this case 2 x 10speeds = 5 speed Quote
anglia4 Posted July 12, 2011 Author Posted July 12, 2011 Stripped down the donor bikes last night Girl bike gives it to boy bike, wonder what will be born? Also went to go and pick up steel and found that my corolla has a flat battery So had to do this: I now see the use for loooooongbike! (aside from just being badass) Quote
ThePog Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 I see what you are carrying is a mere 1.5 meters in length, longbike laughs at the paltry carrying capacity of your steed. Quote
felixx Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 those bikes sitting like that reminded me of the 'human centipede' movie Quote
anglia4 Posted July 12, 2011 Author Posted July 12, 2011 I see what you are carrying is a mere 1.5 meters in length, longbike laughs at the paltry carrying capacity of your steed. Nay, tis only a measly meter Quote
