Nugget lovers of the internet, check out this rad bike slide! I wanted an epic way to transport my bikes without having to completely load up or unload with each work week. Once I worked out what I wanted to I set out to build this insanely high quality bike transport slide and drawer combo.

You're a genius! The design details and engineering are above and beyond. Thank you for the video. Now I don't need to buy a bulky hitch bike rack. I should be able to fit 3+ bikes in the back of my 4runner

@cerealspilla Год назад

Hahaha, thanks! Stoked to inspire you my friend!! Send a picture when you're done!!

@DavidBrown-xo3ql 3 года назад

Super impressive build video. A really well thought out, unique design that works great and is finished off to a very high standard. Well done mate!👍

@cerealspilla 3 года назад

Thanks so much David! Stay tuned for an obligatory "1 year on" or "life with my bike slide" video ;) Actually, I'll have to do a video on the mechanism I came up with that accounts for random head angles, super neat!

Love the tool / storage drawer underneath, I'm definitely stealing this idea for my van build.

@cerealspilla 2 года назад

Here's a couple of things I got lucky with, it's JUST tall enough my tool box fits, and the compartments are JUST long enough my pump fits. I didn't bother measuring the height of the toolbox because I just made the drawer as tall as I reasonably could (I still wanted to have wiggle room to carry taller bikes if needed - but a tie down strap would easily compress a fork for transit too).

Excellent job. That looks great,very professionally built.

@cerealspilla 3 года назад

Thanks Jon, it gives me a smile everytime I use it haha

@skibumsmith 10 месяцев назад

I'm super impressed with your problem-solving, specifically the process of finding the angle that your fork needed to be mounted so that the handlebars wouldn't take up too much room. I'm building my own bike rack for the back of my pickup and used your design as inspiration. I'm still trying to figure out how you cut that angle with a miter saw.

@cerealspilla 7 месяцев назад

Sorry for the late reply, I have a compound mitre saw. I can simultaneously set mitre and bevel. How did your project go? I'm keen to see photos if you have any!

Thanks Mike! Appreciate the support mate. If you build something fun let me know 😁

That’s a nice looking stumpy. Sick design looks like those whips are travelling first class

YOOOOO nice video dude ! thanks for advices ! i'll buy a kangoo this summer and turn it into a bike van too, keep doing this way its amazing :))

@cerealspilla 3 года назад

Frothing my man, that's so good! I hope it turns out great. Send some pictures when you're done, I'd love to see it!!! In a few months I'll get the video up about dealing with different head angle bikes. If you need assistance with that in the mean time be sure to hit me up. 😁😁

@KingEvan87 3 года назад

Also nice buildlaps

@cerealspilla 3 года назад

It’s a useful way to condense 100 hours of build time into 16 minutes of video. A buildlapse of me editing the video for 100 hours would be substantially more boring!

@adventures.and.activities Год назад

Great video! How did you secure the drawer / slide to the floor of the van?

@cerealspilla Год назад

Thanks for the question! My van already had a ply floor in it (large flange rivets secure the ply to the body work). I added more rivets to the ply to ensure the ply was very secure. Then I used slotted angle internally for the length of the drawer. I screwed into the carcass sides and straight down to the ply floor. I took some care to make sure the carcass was square so the draw would slide properly and both locking mechanisms operated correctly once it was all screwed down. I wanted to be able to remove it easily, but never have 😜

@garyoneill8868 2 года назад

Great drawer build and video. Where did you buy the carpet/is it boat type? Thankyou.

@cerealspilla 2 года назад

Yeah, it's marine carpet, I just bought it from Bunnings in Australia. If you're overseas it is a fuel resistant water resistant carpet. It probably wouldn't matter inside the van, but I just wanted it to be durable in case I spilled chain lube on it.

@garyoneill8868 2 года назад

@@cerealspilla In Nth Qld mate. Thanks for your answer. Yeah, no point messing up a van just cos we can.

@stewartjackson1821 Год назад

What did you do with the front wheel's while in back of van?

@cerealspilla Год назад

It changes every trip. Often they just tuck down the left side and that's fine. When we have been super loaded I packed them concentrically axle to axle with a pull noodle cut and taped in a 300 mm circle to so they held the rotors and hubs off one another but the noodle transferred load through the spokes in stead.

@rgamieson Год назад

Fantastic build! I’m looking to build something similar for my newly acquired van, can you publish your plans on your site?

@cerealspilla Год назад

I don't have a site, but more than happy to share them with you!

@andyh570 2 года назад

Nice rack, looks good. Did you ever upload the next video where you solved the problem of the angled fork legs? I was looking for it to see how you did that, I've got the same problem and wanted to see your take on it Thanks

@cerealspilla 2 года назад

Andy, I haven't yet. I've been editing an upcoming video from an overnight canoe camping adventure. It's been a lot of work. To your point solving angled legs in a fixed way is easy, solving them in an adjustable way.... well I came up with something great! I'll atleast get a photo up for you.
