LOVE LOVE LOVE this thumbnail Matty!! It literally Jumped out of the screen at me and I had to see what it was about!! I had no idea it was yours until it started playing!! Nice work 👌
Hello, a good informative video 🥂 Please could you point me in the right direction to those aluminium or steel brackets you used for mounting the runners/frame to the floor. Thanks
This is a great idea. But I thin it would foul on the brackets to attach it to the floor. But I’m going to have another look when I refit it as it’s out at the moment.
Thanks for this video! What is the weight of this slide out rack? Most people seem to build them from plywood, which I guess is heavier. The rails seem hevy, though. Thanks!
I haven’t weighed it yet but I agree the the actual rails are very heavy. I was originally going to put another one in but think I will leave it at one.
Thanks pal. 140x80cm. I did it to width of my bars I’ve not had three bikes on it yet but looking at when I had two on it will easily take three with room to spare maybe a 4th. Grab your fork mounts and screw them to a bit of wood like I did. Mock it up. Don’t forget your wheels though as they take up a fair amount of room.
Yes mate. I used this company who I gave my design to (that bit of paper) and then they speced it and cut the pieces to length. There are cheaper companies but they had massive lead times of 4-6 weeks where as these guys turned it round in 2 days. www.item24.com/en-gb/automatic-fastening-set-8-bright-zinc-plated-38808
Thanks! That makes sense, the extrusion is ITEM and I’ve used Bosch Rexroth. They have something similar actually, so I think I’ll give it a go. I might use that company that you used for future projects
Really enjoyed watching this! The van is coming along really good! Well done for figuring out the automatic fasteners too😊. From James at MBS
Thanks James. And thanks for the help.

Thanks rich. I was literally about to shoot another one as was on two minds but I will leave it ❤️

Hi thanks. They were just some L shape aluminium 80x80 I think cut down to 40mm and then drilled. 👍
This is exactly what I’m after when I start my build. I see you have been to Revs, have you been back since it’s opened back up?
No pal not yet. Had a few MTB injuries and kids 😅
Have you? Any good?
I was there last week. They’re slowly getting back up and running, but it definitely looks weird not riding through trees anymore.
@@marcwhale3430 I’m happy for them. Mad they had to shut. My favourite bike park.
Beautiful,it’s getting there .❤
Thanks Gerty ❤️
Could you have put the aluminium sheet on the bottom of the frame to give extra clearance for the bed?

I will weigh it when I get a minute.
Really like this design
Would you mind sharing the dimensions?
Do you think you could have made it slightly slimmer for 3 bikes?

Those connector bolts are interesting. Haven’t come across those before. Any chance you have a link to them?

They were spot on.
50 quid for the runners, 25 each? where did you get those from sounds like a good deal!
Just off eBay. ‘Pair Heavy duty draw runners’ 👍
@@abucklife Done suppose you have a link or ebay item number? - I've searched but cant see ones similar. (probably being think!)🤣
325296131510 eBay number. No problem. I think they have put them since I bought them to £70
Do you both like to mountain bike? 😍
Ginny loves a country ride and I like downhill.

👍
I'd of made you a better bike try for less. Didn't look hard enough
Now you tell me. What’s your website? I will take a look.
@@abucklife I'll drop you a message on fb I saw your post yesterday 👍🏼
👍
