LOVE LOVE LOVE this thumbnail Matty!! It literally Jumped out of the screen at me and I had to see what it was about!! I had no idea it was yours until it started playing!! Nice work 👌
Thanks pal. 140x80cm. I did it to width of my bars I’ve not had three bikes on it yet but looking at when I had two on it will easily take three with room to spare maybe a 4th. Grab your fork mounts and screw them to a bit of wood like I did. Mock it up. Don’t forget your wheels though as they take up a fair amount of room.
Thanks for this video! What is the weight of this slide out rack? Most people seem to build them from plywood, which I guess is heavier. The rails seem hevy, though. Thanks!
I haven’t weighed it yet but I agree the the actual rails are very heavy. I was originally going to put another one in but think I will leave it at one.
Yes mate. I used this company who I gave my design to (that bit of paper) and then they speced it and cut the pieces to length. There are cheaper companies but they had massive lead times of 4-6 weeks where as these guys turned it round in 2 days. www.item24.com/en-gb/automatic-fastening-set-8-bright-zinc-plated-38808
Thanks! That makes sense, the extrusion is ITEM and I’ve used Bosch Rexroth. They have something similar actually, so I think I’ll give it a go. I might use that company that you used for future projects
