Very nice front rack. I have been looking for ideas and would love to copy this. Unfortunately, it is beyond my current capabilities as I never learned to weld. I may have to take a course.
Thank you my dear friend! Bring your gravel bike next time you're near by. If you want we can think of a rack for your gravel rig! Chickens are copyright-free.
Looks great! Nice little project! I taught myself to weld about 8-10 years ago and got pretty decent spoolgun MIG welding aluminum and standard MIG welding steel. Never welded a ton of stainless but it went ok. Somehow I NEVER realized that you can stick weld stainless, that's killer!
Good job, I don't have the tools to make it, I don't like to buy aluminium racks because they break and not strong like steel, but stainless steel racks are expensive, I need it for 700c road bike, my bicycle doesn't have the top eyelets.
Subed. I desperately was searching for this exact rack design. Your is the only one! (top fork fender hole + mid fork mounting hole) Do you take orders? I'm a handy guy but I can't weld.
I will make similar but bigger front rack with seamless steel 10 x 1 mm pipe and inner reinforcement with 8 x 0,5 mm or aluminium 8 mm rod. TIG weld. Bright colour paintjob, orange, light blue or similar. I just need good pipe bender and time enough .
Oh man, exactly this I would need for my current bike trip. I am so upset because the front rack I bought is not fitting properly - I was seeing tons of mechanics and there is no creativity at all on how to adjust it. I would know how or at least have several ideas about it, but no tools :(. A pity you leave in Portugal ;). Best, Christina
There are (at least) two reasons for not blowing holes: 1) all tubes are notched properly so no gaps exist and 2) small electrodes and proper amperage combined with spot welding.
Whoa this is looks so neat and sturdy. I bought a front rack for my bike but it's fit poorly. I wonder if I need to do custom jobs myself given that I have no welding or metal cutting skill. Also my for doesn't have eyelets
excellent work, my friend! Inspiring, please tell me What diameter and thickness is the tube? How many amps did you use for the machine and what type of electrode (Rod)?
@@thegrindjp8067 I would love to accept that challenge, however, for a decent fit I need to have the fork with me. Do you know if the warlock shares the same bolt bosses location on the fork blades as in the vulture? A tight fit is really necessary, in my opinion.
I do not sell racks per se. What I do and I've done is custom racks for specific forks. Fork mounts are a different in different forks so making one size that fits all is difficult.
Hi, this awesome work. I was wondering if you could figure a front rack for an electric bike (G4 from GoCycle). The main idee would be to have stem mount and the rack that can attach, because of the folding feature. Thx
Thank you for the kind words. I made one rack for stem just for fabrication purposes (see my instagram page @ivznh). The main limitation of such rack is the leverage caused by the load. If the stem is not strong enough damage can occur.
Thanks. I have to re-check but I used 1.6 - 2 mm rods, the smaller the better in my opinion. Ridgid tube bender is the cheapest option where I live to bend Stainless Steel. SS is tricky to bend (and very hard) so the cheap ones will just break under load. I broke 2 and gave up wasting money.

This is just regular stick welding with a 1.6 mm (or 1/16") 304 stainless steel rod. Since the tubing is so thin I have to spot weld it to avoid holes.
1:30… totally satisfied 😂 great measures
Beautiful work. 99% of us would mess every part of that up so badly, it would be better to make a dog chew it into shape.
Excellent, very inspiring. Beautifully filmed and presented.
Thank you!

What an incredible job my friend. You have a lot of talent on your hands. Also enjoy pretty much listening the chickens, best background soundtrack.

Thanks! Yes, if you take your time and don't rush it you can weld thin stainless with a stick welder. Just choose the right settings.
Truly impressive work, looks so clean. And thank you for the cute surprise at the end 🐈
You make it look so easy. Well done!
When art meets craftsmanship!
Thanks for the words!
what an AWESOME work you did,this is the best video of making a front rack! 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Anyone complaining about the cost of a front rack should watch this :)

I love watching this video, fantastic work

Great work - clean design.
Great job. Awesome cat! 👍🏼

Beautiful job, mesmerizing to watch!
What wall thickness is this tubing? Looking to buy a similar bender, for 1.5mm wall SS tube
Nice work
Brilliant! And great skills too :)
Beautiful build! Thanks for sharing.
gratulacje i szcuneksuper robota , własnie szukam przedniego bagaznika pod worek do mtb i nic mi sie nie podoba jeszcze raz super robota :)
Well done!
golden hands
Yeay - I‘d like to see more bike related videos 😀
Thanks! I'm planing on making a video making a bicycle frame, now that I made my first one, however time is always scarce.
@@ivznh I am very excited and have already subscribed to your channel. Good luck 🙌
What electrodes are those? how is he not blowing holes in the tubes? Really nice job.
There are (at least) two reasons for not blowing holes: 1) all tubes are notched properly so no gaps exist and 2) small electrodes and proper amperage combined with spot welding.
Cute cat!
nicely done!!
Well done! Which Ridgit 600-series is that tube bender? Also, what diameter tube did you use?
Beautiful work, what is the tool for pipe bending from Ridgid called?
Kind of a small Rack don't you think. I like to transport a lot more than that would hold.
we need to know what snacks you were carrying on the rack!
Bread because I forgot the money to buy beer.
Very cool and very inspiring.

It's not worth taking years of evening classes to make this. Better to just buy one.
Beautiful
So good....
It is nice! I would like making it. Where do you buy bend machine? It work awesome
1AAAA Super!!!!💪💪
carai brabo
AWESOME!
Obviously it's great but how many hours did it take to make this?
Very nice Video, you should Sell this🎉
Nice 😉👍🌻
Muito bom trabalho. Ficou com optimo aspecto!
Obrigado! :)
Wonderful!
Grazie Massimo!
bravo!
excellent work, my friend!
Inspiring, please tell me
What diameter and thickness is the tube?
How many amps did you use for the machine and what type of electrode (Rod)?
Thanks! 10mm OD tube with 1.2 mm wall thickness and 308 rods at ~40 amps.
Beautiful project, congrats¡¡...do you have the specs, please?....salute¡¡¡¡
How many amps were you using on the welder? What size/type of rod? Positive or Negative ground?
can you give me details on the welder and stick you used to weld this? is this aluminum or steel? thanks
Awesome 👍
Do you make these to order? I have a Fearless warlock

So cool!!! I love the cat 😁

excellent. will make one. DO you have a video for the rear rack?
Thanks. I have plans to make one, but no time for that at the moment.
Muito bom, nem seria de esperar outra coisa de ti! Apenas melhoraria a banda sonora do vídeo.
Abraço.
Obrigado! 🙏🏻 Tenho então de ver se dou comer às galinhas antes do vídeo para ver se fazem menos barulho :P
Fuck you are smart!!
Hi Ivo, super project, what width of stainless electrode did you use? Also what's the advantage of the 10mm Ridgid bender vs a cheap 10mm one? Thanks!

Que maravilha para ir ao pão! :D ass. Carlos Melo
Obrigado Carlos! É mesmo para isso e para ir à loja!
Subscrito, gostei muito dos vídeos 👌
Obrigado Mário! 🙏🏻
Is that a 5" vice? and what bending tool it is? thanks!
It is a Ridgid tube bender, from the 400 series.
6:29 the holes at the middle of the fork might diminish its streagth - other than that excellent job
The holes at the middle of the fork were placed there by the manufacturer. They do not compromise its structural integrity.
@@ivznh ok I see, at my bike they do not exist
I want

What kind of welding is this? I see flux core cheaply available at Harbor Freight, and wondering if thats a possibility
This is just regular stick welding with a 1.6 mm (or 1/16") 304 stainless steel rod. Since the tubing is so thin I have to spot weld it to avoid holes.
