Bicycle Blender Imperfections


There are many ways to improve the current bicycle blender.  Areas form improvement can be categorized into three main groups; the pitcher, the axle, and general structural support.

PITCHER
  • Requires a lot of glue
  • Blade can not chop ice / hard/ large items
  • Blade shape often misses chunks
  • Difficult to secure the nail to the blade
  • Rubber sealant on the top of the cap does not hold well
  • High potential for accidentally gluing the ball bearings and inhibiting rotation of the blade




AXLE
  •            Fixed length
  •           Transmission wheel
  •           Should consider that axle may need to be removed


SUPPORT / STRUCTURE
  •          Location of rear axle requires you to cut most rear racks
  •          Wooden donut is very specific
  •          Bungee cords are not entirely reliable / secure & look somewhat sketchy
  •          Doesn’t work if the wood plank is loose
  •          The blender attachment to base is not consistent
