That trueing stand is huge! Beautiful craftsmanship. I rode a high wheeler once, I’d been on bicycles my whole life and as an adult the joy felt was the same as first learning to ride a “safety” bike. Very fun.
I restored a couple of highwheels. Then made a reproduction of an 1879 Open Head Excelsior Duplex with a 51" wheel. I rode it in the Calvin Challenge for voting rights in The Wheelmen. Dan does some very pretty machines.
What operation are you performing about 9:30 minutes into the video when running a roller around the wheel between the tire and rim. Are you attempting to seat the tire into the rim?
Nope, simple and quick procedure (actually at least three common methods of dismounting); Step Dismount (just reverse of mounting method), Pedal Dismount (using one pedal like the stirrup on a horse to get down), Jump off the Back.
Hi Dan, glad to see you! I have a creative experimental idea for you, why don't you create a penny-farthing, but so that the front wheel is only the leading one, and the steering wheel is made small by using cables, as is done on modern cargo bicycles. The front wheel will be the leading one, but it is fixed with the help of additional horizontal feathers, completing a full-fledged dropout. Moreover, I suggest that instead of a simple bushing, put a 3-step planetary one so that you can at least rest and not pedal all the time. And that in the dry balance, we will get a comfortable, safe bike, but at the same time with the advantage and feeling of a penny-farthing, a sense of flight and freedom.
C4ACT, when being ridden, there is not all that much weight on the rear wheel, so making that a steering wheel sounds like it might tend to skate rather than steer properly. However, there used to be reverse highwheel bikes with the small wheel in front, and in those cases, the small wheel steered....they are still not as positive as having the big wheel steer.

A pleasure to see Dan at work 🙂

Lovely birds
Lovely to see those beautiful bikes being made. Hoping to secure my spot on the waiting list in a couple of months time 🤞😬🤞
This is so cool. Love your work, Dan. Now we can share some of the effort behind building such a machine to people interested. Great editing.
What a craftsman well done Dan
Thank you so much for sharing! Beautiful work
Отличная работа! С удовольствием посмортел. Мира всем!!!
Nice!!! Another video to watch over and over again in excited anticipation. Thank you very much, can't wait, I needed this.
Beautifully engineered and built. A credit to you .
Thank you very much!
Well made video; always delighted to see your fabulous work Dan!

Respect! Very interesting to see how you make tires.

Great video! Wish we could have seen the end badge😉
Super chciałbym mieć taki rower jestem rowerzystą kocham rowery ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Nice video . dismounting must be an adventure.

World class. Thx so much. Lovely
You're very welcome!
Классная мастерская. С удовольствием хотел бы поработать там и научиться у мастера ремеслу. И интересно было бы покататься на таком велосипеде.)
wow good job
I wish I try to ride a penny farthing someday, heh.
It's like unicycling on my 29"uni but with much, MUCH larger wheel.
serhiiruden, riding a highwheel bike is not like riding a unicycle; it is like riding a regular bike.
Cara ficou muito top parabes vc é unjenio melhor que odifabrica nota 1000❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dan, why does the pipe not go spaghetti curly in the big bender? Does the action force it to remain straight?
Absolutely perfectly aligned dies so the pressure applied from the radius of the die is symmetrical so it equalises the forces.
@@pennyfarthingdan Thank you, sir! Such beautiful work you do. Thank you for keeping the art & tech alive. (I ride a 48")
precioso , muy muy buen trabajo , excelente , congratulation
Front wheel and rare wheel are how many Inches?
verry nice how much for this bicycle sir?
Lovely video. Your cocky looks like he's a great help.
Taka is very special! So is the Galah Carl. 🥰
Superbe GRAND-BI WOUAW.
So who builds the frame and makes the hubs ?…

Why.... why am I crying 🥹
I didn't know you could get that extruded aluminum to make wheels from. Hmmmmm.
It’s my own custom made design and production, specifically for big wheels.
Fun fact: first high wheeler was made by CMC in autumn 1870 not 1871
Thanks for that
I would love to have one🥹🥹 🇵🇭
Cool can you fix my tricycle please
👍👌👏
If you're making new penny farthings, then they're not 150 years old, are they?
;-)

Depends on the type of bike he builds. But it can go as high as $8,000. Check out his website in the description for more information.

:D
Your shop is way too clean, but I may have to try doing my tubes the same way, one of these days.

Tricycle penny farthing with a ladder
The inventors of that bike must have had the waggon wheel burned into their brains.
