Hey, looks great to me! I think if you have several pictures of the completed project, you'll get more interest. This forum is full of ideas that don't see the light-of-day - myself included. Also, it's a little slow around the forum lately. I am sure it has to do with people going back to work and other priorities in Life. Don't be discouraged by the lack of comments. Just continue what you've been doing.here is the final version with all parts. this is the one I will base plans off. why is this thread get relatively no attention considering the first initial reaction. I recently priced steel for the frame here and it would come to around 40 euro using 20mm mild steel tubing.tell me what you think and if interested how much you are willing to pay for plans.
have you got a picture of the completed motorized bicycle. looks like you may have a winner from what I can see
Ok, how do the rear stays get made? What about the dropouts, are they custom? Have you specified a bearing for the pivot? How do you intend on the main frame tubing to be bent, is there a jig required? What kind of fork is required? Have you calculated the offset and trail?hey guys finally all drawings and planning done
to start this project. here is full frame
yes I have considered all you have thought about. the pivot is a nut bolt combination device that I designed I don't want to share drawings right now as I have the plans on sale in swapshop so forgive if I keep a few bits secret. as for dropouts at rear of bike they are thicker admittingly in the views but only because of limitations of my cad skills. they are just plate steel shaped and drilled/grooved to enable removal of wheel. the bend piping I will personally be doing with a pipe roller similar to in picture below, although if someone thought of different way go right ahead but I personally will not guarantee results to be the same. any fork will fit just adjust dimensions to suit what you got, just drew that size, you can change rake if you want but I like the way it is. if you want plans look in swapshop for my thread.Ok, how do the rear stays get made?

These are opening questions that hopefully will lead you to a more mature design. Perhaps you have all this sorted already; if so, please provide answers. Don't be offended; consider this a preliminary design review.
I'm not looking for plans, I was looking for some sort of evidence that your plan will actually be able to be built. You have to be able to supply a parts list, with suggested sources of supply, etc. Not just a CAD file. Perhaps a picture of your built bicycle and some text that describes the handling, weight, etc.yes I have considered all you have thought about. the pivot is a nut bolt combination device that I designed I don't want to share drawings right now as I have the plans on sale in swapshop so forgive if I keep a few bits secret. as for dropouts at rear of bike they are thicker admittingly in the views but only because of limitations of my cad skills. they are just plate steel shaped and drilled/grooved to enable removal of wheel. the bend piping I will personally be doing with a pipe roller similar to in picture below, although if someone thought of different way go right ahead but I personally will not guarantee results to be the same. any fork will fit just adjust dimensions to suit what you got, just drew that size, you can change rake if you want but I like the way it is. if you want plans look in swapshop for my thread.
