The Tesla Cybertruck was such a contemporary and attention-grabbing new tackle the design of the pickup truck that it was immediately polarizing. You both beloved it or hated it, and it appeared like most EV fans beloved it. However by now, after all the numerous quirks and flaws and points that individuals have found about it and made a giant deal about, it appears nearly pointless to pile on. And Musk? Hmm. Identical identical.
It will be manner too simple to say that the individuals who designed the Cyberjunk Cybertruck are people thus far faraway from the truth of the required qualities of a working pickup truck that they wanted to start their design by working from scratch. It will be too simple to say that it appears as in the event that they will need to have been instructed to design a pickup truck that isn’t actually and actually a practical truck in a lot of crucial ways in which folks use pickups, however to as a substitute make it look sorta kinda like a pickup from the longer term — a future the place pickup vans are merely a style accent and a standing image — and nonetheless name it a truck. So I’m not going to say any of that, though because the proprietor of a really sensible and practical truck that may do ALL THE THINGS I require of a working truck, I do preserve questioning why the designers of the Stainless Wedge Cybernotatruck Tesla truck didn’t ask the correct questions. I’m not going there as a result of I actually don’t want the hate within the remark part from the legions of fanboys.
Anyhow… with out (an excessive amount of) additional ado, let’s transfer proper into the precise topic of this submit.
Typically there’s a person… I received’t say a hero, ’trigger, what’s a hero? However typically, there’s a person. And I’m talkin’ about [this] dude proper right here. Typically, there’s a person, nicely, he’s the person for his time and place. He matches proper in there.
In the present day, that man is DK The Welder, who constructed this self-balancing electrical Cyberbike that just about blows each different DIY e-bike out of the water by advantage of its measurement, its audacity, and its boldness. Is it the last word electrical bike, and is it for everybody, is it for the lots? For me, the solutions are possibly, no, and positively not. It’s a bit excessive, a bit too excessive for many functions, and it’s almost definitely a one-off, however rattling, it’s a scorching machine, and one which I’d like to take for a spin.
Try the DIY Cyberbike for your self, and don’t blame me in the event you get the uncontrollable urge to move out to the storage to start fabricating your individual dream machine:
“On this video, I showcase my custom-built 72V cyberbike that makes use of a hoverboard’s balancing expertise to remain upright!

Watch as I stroll by way of all the setup, together with the motor, battery, and balancing mechanism, and take it for an exhilarating take a look at journey.
“This challenge was all about pushing boundaries and experimenting with hoverboard expertise in a brand new manner. You’ll see how I built-in the hoverboard’s gyroscope and motors to maintain the bike balanced, even at increased speeds.” — DK The Welder
