Best bicycle camper in the world made realistic, help!!!

Postby Leo307 » Wed Feb 19, 2020 3:25 am

This is my second time posting on here (copied this). So I am planning the best bicycle camper possible run by a 3000w mid drive ebike. I want the total weight to go below 300kg of course probably around 200kg is doable, insulated as well.
90cm width expanding to 180cm (the whole chassis will expand with the body manually)
170cm tall (to look see something looking backwards on the bike) from the ground expanding to ~230cm tall do that i can walk inside.
~3m long
~2 strong bicycle wheels + holders on the ground when I'm parked.
Chassis out of aluminium or pvc (perhaps reinforced with fiberglass)
Construction made out of Fiberglass on thin xps foam or super thin aluminium and after that on both options closed cell spray foam to make a sandwich. (I know expensive but money won't be the factor) total insulation around an inch to one and a half thick. I want the spray foam as well to be able to walk on the floor without any heavy flooring. On the roof I want only xps foam with aluminium unglued so that I can remove the foam in hot climates so that the heat won't be trapped inside the van.

For the inside stuff I will use Plywood, honeycomb materials, plastic, aluminium and perhaps xps foam as my materials.
I will use a projector for movies and enchanted dining experience with beautiful scenerys with sound or just to watch series when chilling in the bed.
I will fit first a big bed made out of 2-3x camping air mattress that inflates automatically and does not make sound with 2-3inches of gel foam mattress. (super comfy they say)
I will only be able to fit the bed 2m then kitchen 1m< but the bed will become a sofa and there will be more leg room.

This is just my speculations and I would be happy for you all to criticise and help me make something like this work. I want the best bicycle camper there is in the world as of yet. :shock:

Being a ” biker” (bicyclist) , we found the workman wheels pretty STRONG … :thinking:
There’s no place like Foam !

Each time you post looking for suggestions I look at some sort of unfolding camper. could be as much as this:

Me, I'd build something more like a Thule Ski carrier shape that opens like the above sample or angle/full lifts.
