(INQUIRIES) 518-359-9300 IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED PLANS, OR THINK YOU MIGHT,FOLLOW THE LINK BELOW TO FIND A LIST OF MATERIALS, REVISIONS,AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON BUILDING YOUR BENTLEY RAILBIKE.LATEST Railbike Construction NOTES What IS a RAILBIKE?A railbike, sometimes called a 'rail bike', is a standard bicycle with attachments that allow the bike to be ridden easily along on a railroad track. Most abandoned railroads are in pretty poor shape. Any good railbike design must be able to cope with broad flattened rails, narrow worn rails, and weeds so thick you can't see the rails.ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND, you should use railbikes ONLY on ABANDONED lines!!The attachments to the bicycle consist of a FRONT WHEEL GUIDE, and an OUTRIGGER to the opposite rail.The FRONT WHEEL GUIDE attaches to the front wheel axle, and steers the bike to keep it on the rail. The GUIDE may be raised off the rail with a small lever mounted on the handlebar. This makes it possible to ride (SLOWLY!) past road crossings and other minor obstructions without getting off the bike.The OUTRIGGER attaches to the LEFT side of the bicycle frame at 3 points, and holds a wheel that rides along the opposite rail. This keeps the railbike from tipping over, so long as YOU keep your center-of-gravity slightly inboard, on the OUTRIGGER side of your bike. I mount the OUTRIGGER on the left so there is no interference with the chain drive.If you have any choice in the matter, I recommend you choose a lady's bike. When you are riding your bike along a rail, you are 7 inches higher off the ground than normal. Most people do not have an inseam measurement 7 inches greater than normal. Figure it out!I also recommend the old style 3-speed bike rather than those with 5 or 10 speed derailleurs. Grass and weeds tend to get caught more easily in the latter. I carry along a short piece of coat hanger wire, and stop at necessary intervals to clean the vegetation out of the derailleur and rear sprocket. The old 3-speed shifter does not collect crud as quickly. A chain guard is also recommended.These plans represent an evolutionary design. This means the design was improved over time as new problems came to light. The design presented here represents the final version in a succession of better and better designs. I built my first railbike back in the late 50's. I am not saying this design cannot be improved. But I will guarantee, you can make many changes that will cause problems that will not be apparent until afterwards.If you are one of those people, like myself, who must "improve" everything he touches, follow my plans EXACTLY the first time around. This way you will be able to tell whether any later "improvements" really make things better. DO RAILBIKERS HAVE ONE TRACK MINDS? It would seem so. I have been building and riding railbikes here in the Adirondack mountainsof northern NY since the late 50's. There is something about railbiking that is worlds beyond merely riding a bicycle, and I love it. My wife loves it. My father loves it. All my friends love it. What makes RAILBIKING so much fun? Perhaps the fun comes from doing something wild, not done by many others. I am sure there is more to it than just that. Railbikes are self-steering. You are free to look around and enjoy. Those iron rails winding off into the distant unknown can provide hours of delightful excursion. They often lead through wilderness unexplored by most. You set the pace, so have plenty of time to soak up the scenery. My favorite abandoned railroad goes right past myhome.In spring everything is coming alive. Summer brings the wild growth here in the east that can almost bury an abandoned track. Curious wildlife appear everywhere. In fall, the colors, and their reflection in the many lakes and beaver ponds, is almost overpowering. This is not to say railbiking is without mishap. Railbikes are mechanical contraptions. Parts loosen, fall off, or break, as is their nature. Even more exciting, if I dare use that word, railbikes occasionally 'de-rail'. This is railbike talk for "the blankity-blank bike came off the track." My wife's sister got so carried away looking at autumn leaves she leaned away from the outrigger. In slow motion, she fell into the bushes and scratched herself on a spruce stubble. She got back up with a very foolish smile on her face. Be careful. Small trees and bushes growing close to the rail can snag your foot, jerking the bike off the track. Sometimes a sudden stop will make the rear wheel skid right off the rail. You bounce along on the ties, and come to an ungraceful stop. A good railbike design will greatly increase your enjoyment. The quickest way to a happy experience is to pick a design with a history of success, and go with it. The Bentley RAILBIKE is a very good design. No welding is necessary. My front wheel guide makes use of side rollers. This gives you precision steering, minimal friction, and almost no noise. I use a simple handlebar lever to raise the guide slightly for crossings, or full up for normal bicycle riding. My adjustable height outrigger is an extremely rigid geometric structure that is simple and lightweight. The outrigger has excellent ground clearance to avoid brush. Pull 3 pins, and the outrigger comes completely off and folds.Whether or not you choose the Bentley RAILBIKE design, welcome to the unique sport of RAILBIKING. RAILBIKERS  HAVE  ONE  TRACK  MINDS!
