The Insane Engineering Of A Land Speed Record Bike

This is Neil Campbell's custom-built bike, engineered with one goal in mind: to break the land speed world record and become the first bicycle to surpass 200mph. From its MASSIVE 90-tooth carbon chainring and dual-chain drivetrain to its motorbike forks and tyres, the engineering is unlike anything you've ever seen. We also take a look at the battle scars the bike still wears from a previous 175mph crash! 🔗 Links to Neil's Speed Record socials for those wanting to follow his journey 👇 Instagram: @cycle200mph YouTube: @cycle200mph Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cycle200mph?locale=en_GB ⏱️ Timestamps ⏱️ 00:00 - Intro: The 200mph Bike 00:37 - The Crash Damage 02:24 - Drivetrain Explained 03:59 - The 90-Tooth Carbon Chainring 05:03 - Custom Frame & Motorbike Forks 06:00 - Wheels & Tyres 08:10 - The Follow Car Bumper & Tow Line 09:25 - Braking & The Parachute System 12:05 - Custom Tubeless Wheels 13:15 - Cranks & Brakes 14:14 - Can Ollie Make It Go!?
