My custom bed bike build

[DonChristie]

This is one bed you might not want to “wake and bake”. LOL

How about Bake and Fab? Lol

I just finished cutting the Horizontal crank support from the headboard. Solid steel 5/8 posts! I like the way it will match the top half.

Tonite I had some time to work and think about the bed bike build! I cut a hole for the top headtube and thought, what the hell am I doing? I mean, this is kind of a crazy build! Nonetheless, I paid no attention to common sense! Heres the hole for the top headset and it I laid it out to get a feel for the general design. Im thinking to use the curved bars of the Huffman as vertical supports to match the curve in the frame. Im also thinking a planetary type sprocket in the back bottom bracket frame half rolling on the chain.

Reproduction beds are made with lightweight tubing. A finished bedbike might weigh around 45Lbs., complex.
