It steers really easily once you get used to it.

isn't that gonna be hard to steer, especially when there's a sizable load in the cart?

Won't be any harder than your mom.

Do your knees hit the back of the cart?

Is a Wal-Mart somewhere missing a shopping cart?

Looks awesome though, Haha. Go into a store with it now.

Kroger that I used to work for gave it to me

lol + welding. Referring to your previous gripe post.

Also, in addition to being a good name for a band, I would describe this thing with the phrase Suicide Geometry.

Out of curiosity, what is the intended goal of this project? Other than making a cool bike pickup truck.

Will it have a Martini or Gulf livery?

Also, isn't the grip supposed to be on the driving wheel or wheels? Isn't this the bikecart version of putting chains on the wrong wheels?

Acetylene did wonders for it. I was just pissed when I was able to pull the front axle off of the support tube.

The rear wheel is the drive wheel, I just haven't mounted the hub motor wheel yet.

Well, it seems like you've definitely built a thing.

Awesome! It's senior project or something right?

I suggest you put an engine on it.

I have a 1000 W hub motor for the back

Bikes dont have axels they have forks, but I just realized what you meant. The axel on the cart. I feel kinda dumb now

Arch Duke Maxyenko, Shit Talk Extraordinaire > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s 11/15/2014 at 19:47

Bikes do have axles, they're what the wheels spin on, but I'm glad you figured out what I meant.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > Arch Duke Maxyenko, Shit Talk Extraordinaire 11/15/2014 at 19:49

No thats the hub in the front and the freewheel in the rear (assuming its not a fixie)

Arch Duke Maxyenko, Shit Talk Extraordinaire > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s 11/15/2014 at 20:01

At the center of the hub is an axle, it's that threaded part.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > Arch Duke Maxyenko, Shit Talk Extraordinaire 11/15/2014 at 20:02

But its part of the hub assembly, no one really cals it an axle

Arch Duke Maxyenko, Shit Talk Extraordinaire > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s 11/15/2014 at 20:03

But, it is an axle

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > Arch Duke Maxyenko, Shit Talk Extraordinaire 11/15/2014 at 20:04

Only technically. "Axle" isnt the proper terminology though

Uh huh.

What's the design for this thing? Any sketches? :)

People dont usually say axle in reference to a bike part, but ya youre right

I have a 3D model of it that I need to convert into proper drawings. But I don't have them on me at the moment.

No problem, keep us posted. :)

I used to ride a heavy sucker similar to the one in pic below at my grandparents' place.

Grandpa had a garage to which he added a shack and another and another... Eventually there were 100+ bicycles and about 20 motorcycles/mopeds in it. Unfortunately, I was too dumb to save any of it when he passed away. Fucking hell.
