Now, i got all my parts out of a garbage can. I found 4 bicycle frames, 3 bicycle wheels, a jogging stroller with bicycle wheels, a tredmill that works and has a heavry duty frame where the belt runs, bed framing which is great for welding all kinds of stuff. Also i take long trips on my bike and any time i find a peice of metal i pick it up. From bolts, nuts washers, screws, nails, pipes, steel peices, gears, tools, (i just found a vintage unique hammer head with no handle, i found chains, chainsaw wrenches, vice grips, screw drivers, bike chains, channel locks, hack saws, i even found a drive shaft from a semi). Ive got every imaginable bolt and nut, lug nuts, bicycle bolts.....in other words you dont hafta buy parts. Its all out there for the free pickins if you know where to look and arent to good to dive into a trash can haha.
I would only recomend one thing to this design. The bolt which acts as the shaft for the wheels would need supported on the outside. Other wise it seems to me there could potentially be too much leverage for significant amount of weight. Sure, its a bicycle trailer and most likely you wont be pully huge amount of weight. How ever, over time and due to possible bumps in the trail or road could csuse the wheels to eventually bow. Obviously adding a frame on the outside wheels will increase the total width of the trailer. To compensate for that. The trailer frame could be bent in to compensate for the wheel. Then an out side frame could be welded in and then the outer most part of the bolt holding the wheel could be attached to the outer framing to add support and decrease leverage. Though i could still potentially bow with out the shaft being one peice for both wheels. Good job on this. I aint trying to be a know it all, but i am actually in the middle of building my own bike trailer and thats just something i considered on mine. The way you attached the hitch is really cool. Obviously bending the frame at the wheels is gonna give you slightly less cargo space on the trailer, however i think by either framing in the wheels and maybe a single shaft for both wheels could add a significant amount of structural integrity.
Having a additional out side plate to secure your wheels to, from both side's seems to me would be better then having a single side rod. After awhile that wheel and depending on the weight, it will probably begin to tilt in and wobble. Just a thought, but it looks great and simple, thanks for the video.
i built a Trailer, its from a Collapsible Golf Bag Caddy With 9" air tire rims, i put a large Red Tub for the Storage over the Wheels, to try to keep it Balanced + 2 small Saddle bags on each side of Tub, and the Trailer only sticks out 3 inches wider then the Mountain Bike Handle Bars.
Basically the only thing supporting the weight that will be applied to the trailer are the welds put in for the wheels. For a bike trailer however that could possibly be sufficiant support depending on the quality of the weld. I havent quit figured out a way to hitch my trailer yet, so youre steps ahead of me.
I just saw a video of a guy riding a deer on his bike he literally had the deer on the bike like he was riding it nice buck 2 and dude was strapped on its back riding a bike like fuck that all covered in ticks

Cool 😎
Very simple, cheap, intelligent, smart and beautiful. We do not see frequently these qualities in the same project. Thanks for sharing.
Simple yet sophisticated barebone design! you can mod it for specific use or universal. Nice.
Good work! I wish you had shown the hitch in detail. I need to make one.

That's helped me figure out how to make the coupler. Thanks

Bravo sir 👏
Hey, good idea! Thanks!

With a little welding skills and a little time collecting stuff, you could build about anything you want for next to nothing.
Just use and old kiddies trailer. Purpose built. Have found several at recycle yards. Just need a basket. Old shopping trolleys are great for this.
Круто👌👏👏👏👏
Even better yet if you know how electriconic components work, gears ect, motors. You can make just about anything.

i like your disine
what two wire u fixed what it's work/ use.nice thanks please reply
gostei muito
For 56 $ I could have gotten a whole MTn bike for the price of two wheels
I bought a 23 dollar wheelchair from mallwart that with a tweak or two looks like a burley trailer.
The tubing is called conduit fool
EMT- Electrical Metallic Tubing
Also called a raceway.
Heavy 1/4” plywood 🤣🤣🤣
