Nice build! I love that the bikes can be stored fully intact without having to remove the front wheel and yet still have room for the bed. Almost every other van build that I've seen doesn't leave enough room for the bikes.
Great setup and you’ve done an amazing job! I always love each persons adaptation to their van for what they need! So much personality in each build. Keep it up and you are right, it will never be done, but as long as it is done enough to use that’s what is important.
Hi, great idea! I have seen other van bed boards where they have drilled out (hole saw bit) a bunch of 2”-3” inch holes in the bed boards. Apparently, this this lets your mattress breathe better and would lighten the plywood pieces.
Great job. I do prefer these multi purpose bike/camper van builds compared to full campers. Also I love figuring out cheap tricks to make setups simpler and easier to use.
What did you use for the adjustable "slider bars" under the OneUp racks? Looks like you've bolted things directly to the van floor, right? I need to go look at more of your van videos, but didn't see any L-track or similar embedded in floor for flexibility By the way, hope your recovery is progressing well
Hi Peter! I used a Aluminum T-Slotted Extrusion with One Open T-Slotbolted and I mounted that to the floor. Used flat headed bolts that I had to grind down slightly to fit in the tracks.
Bedankt! Nee, heb ik nog niet... Ik wil eerst even kijken of dat ik het echt nodig heb. Tot nu toe nog niet, en ik vind de extra ruimte die ik nu nog heb wel fijn!
Nice practical setup! For the aluminum extrusion you have the racks mounted to, did you just screw them to the factory flooring you have, or did you bolt them all the way through the van? Thanks in advance!
Is het geen idee om wat gaten in de hoeken van de planken te maken, Zodat ze blijven hangen aan haken tijdens het laten zakken van de steunen. En als de steunen dan op zijn plaats zitten kan je ze apart laten zakken met het matras er nog op. Of een paar katrollen met koorden aan een grote plank? #wedenkenmetjemee ;o)

Yes, that was one of my main goals! And I still have plenty of space and room above my head while I am in bed!

Thanks Jeff! Looking forward to show it to you soon! :)
Thats one huge bed! Great job! Very cool you can still store your bikes underneath
Thanks!
I like that setup, so simple and useful! Seems to be the best bang for the buck setup I have seen.
Simple, but ingenious! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks!
Awesome cool build 🤘❤❤❤👍
Thank you Tomas!

Hey its good to see you, again (virtually) Hope you are well. I want to get down to where you are and have you give me some lessons!!
Yes! Would love to help. Please visit: www.crankitupmtb.com and send me an email to set something up!

Great job, thanks for sharing the information.

Mooi bussie! Ziet er gaaf uit! Zit er ook een kookgelegenheid bij? Succes met de verder afbouw.

Do you have a link for the bicycle lock down?
Great video. I have one of those moto mounts. They’re awesome. Do you have the ikea link by chance?
