My Cyclekart Is Starting To Feel Real!

In my first video, I decided to build my very first Cyclekart. At that point, almost everything was just a mock-up — cardboard, wood and a lot of imagination!
Now things are getting a little more serious.
The first prototype chassis is taking shape, the wheels are on, the front axle and leaf springs are fitted, and for the first time I can actually sit in the Cyclekart at the proposed driving position.
It's still very much a prototype, and there's a lot left to figure out, but sitting in it has made the whole thing feel very different.
I'm really doing this!
I'm learning as I go, so expect plenty of experimenting, mistakes and probably a few things that don't quite go to plan. But that's what this project is all about — finding out whether I really can build my own Cyclekart from scratch.

My uninformed 10p worth is the engine in the back will be the quickest way to get built and running, but the drawback will be weight distribution biased towards the back.
"Small things make perfection, but perfection is no small thing".
And with Chris there to advise when perhaps a point needs clarifying, you'll never go far wrong. Keep up the good work. Bravo you 👍😊
I look forward to your upcoming cunning plans!
