The video features a maker, Colin, who creates a unique bicycle frame using hydraulic rams, which can change shape and grow. The project, sponsored by Raid Shadow Legends, involves designing and building the frame from scratch, adding hydraulic motors, lines, and controls. Colin faces challenges in keeping the bike's geometry and stability, but ultimately succeeds in creating a functional, albeit unconventional, bicycle. The hydraulic system allows the bike to change shape, making it a "low-rider" or a "super long" bike. While riding it can be unstable and nerve-wracking, Colin is proud of his creation, which he believes is "absolutely blooming awesome."
Here are the key facts extracted from the text:
1. The project involves building a bicycle frame using hydraulic rams.
2. The creator has previously worked on other bike projects, including a social distancing bike, a jet bike, and a bicycle with springs.
3. The video is sponsored by Raid Shadow Legends.
4. The bicycle of hydraulics is designed to change shape and do various things using hydraulics.
5. The creator starts from scratch instead of modifying an existing bike.
6. Hydraulics are expensive, which is why the video has a sponsor.
7. The bike frame is made of stainless steel and has black hydraulic components.
8. The creator adds an extra oil reservoir to the bike because the seat post does not hold enough oil to expand all the cylinders.
9. The bike has a solenoid valve and a manifold to control the hydraulic system.
10. The creator tests the bike and finds that it can change shape and move in various ways.
11. The bike can be ridden in different configurations, but it is not very stable.
12. One potential use for the bike is to ride up or down hills while remaining level.
13. The bike weighs 53 kilos (117 pounds) and has a lot of flex and twists in its chassis.
14. The creator has weighed the bike and found it to be very heavy.
