So, I've always fancied a go at a world record
And I love ebikes
And I have 4 kids
So, I've applied to Guinness for a crack a record that I don't believe exists
The fastest electric pushchair /pram in the world!
There is a record for petrol driven but not electric. I don't know if they'll accept a new, separate electric one, waiting to hear (petrol hit around 80kph! - see Colin furze)
Thinking of massively overvoltibg a motor I have in a 16 wheel and using that in a controller with a reverSe shut mod to produce high speed and low torque . Frame will need adapting so front wheel takes it with proper chunky steel dropouts (not plastic ). Maybe two systems and motors , one in the rear to get up to speed and then over to lipo powered mega overvolted front wheel. Totally separate , two controllers, two throttles , small high powered lipo. I don't need range here !
Frame is otherwise solid steel as its a bike trailer /pushchair converter (this may be an issue for Guinness but I have welder mates if so !)
Photos to follow but my big dream is a charity event / record attempt at my local small airport runway (shoreham airport). Ideally I'd like it to relate /raise money etc for the awful tragedy Shoreham had a couple of years ago at our air show
It's , admittedly, just a feasible idea in early stages of gestation
Just interested in any forum thoughts
Obviously one can throw money at such an idea but this is to be done on a budget of hope, goodwill, sponsorship where possible , hope, forum knowlwdge, risk taking and blind belief it can be done !
