Q&A

How did you come up with the idea to build a monster bike?

I saw a picture of a cool custom chopper and was inspired to create my own version using the materials I had.

Why did you use an old bed frame for the bike?

I wanted to repurpose materials I already had and thought the bed frame would make a sturdy base for the bike.

Why did you use electric skateboards for the wheels?

I had previously used an electric skateboard to power a mono wheel and thought it would work well for this project too.

Did you encounter any challenges during the build process?

Yes, I had to overcome challenges such as finding the right size skateboard for the tires and designing a bike frame without access to a welder.

What are your plans for the monster bike in the future?

Once the bike is complete, I plan to test its speed and performance and possibly make further modifications to improve its capabilities.
