How To Build A Bolt-Together Drift Trike (No Welding)

I made this video for people that want to build a drift trike out of a 20" bicycle but are unable to do any welding...I figured out how to cut apart a bike and turn it into a drift trike by bolting parts together instead of welding...I had very little time or money in this project...I only had to come up with a small handful of additional hardware and materials... I prefer the welding method but I hope this helps if you have limited access to fabrication tools...Thanks for watching, if it helped, please leave a like.

Everything about this drift trike, all the cuts , bends, use of entire bike, and making it bolt together. I have to say is pure genius. you really opened my mind to how to actually cut the metal in order to bolt it in. Great job.

this guy did a great job but for your own sake please weld it! its much safer cheaper and quicker

@@Sadge1999 i dont know about safer because the bolts can vibrate liose

It is cool that someone takes into consideration that there are people who do not have tools that others have and can do the same thing that is cool with other methods

@smitherszx7 10 лет назад
Yea thanks, Was my intention to help kids see that this stuff can be done with a couple simple tools and some salvaged material.

This is something I have always wanted to do and watching your video yesterday made me feel inspired to get it done got up this morning went on Craigslist found a 10$ mower and a free bmx 20in girl bike we two free bikes actually and now to just start cutting and tapping

man you are a god bro. im drift triker too and i weld all my trikes. i have to say i was skeptical while watching the vid and was thinking" what the hell is this guy thinking this trike wont be solid at all..."but you sir have proven me wrong and i applaud your workmanship and ingenuity on your build. now i wanna try building a trike like yours. ive been drifting trikes for almost 2 yrs now and ive seen some crazy stupid designs for strikes that are just retarded and they are a bad bad wreck waiting to happen. you how ever have found a way around the danger of it falling a part.. you are a god bro...

@idirtbike13 10 лет назад
You are a very skilled and patient builder I'm building a trike right now and do you recommend fixed axle (like this video shows) or a rolling axle (like you put on you motorized trike)? inflatable tires with pvc over them or wood with pvc?
@smitherszx7
@smitherszx7 10 лет назад
Thanks bud...i do recommend a fixed axle so the bearings are in the wheels...also recommend inflatable wheels....i use wood with couplings alot simply because it is a much cheaper way to go but they work perfectly....in some of my vids, i use 1/2" axle but thats because i had 50' of it lying around...5/8 or 3/4 will give ya much stronger axle....i always reply to Q's guys and good luck with your build..
