Babboe Bakfiets Cargo Bike Lights e-curve

Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4848693.

Supersceded

I have redesigned this because it was a nightmare to print and it did not join together nicely.

Please look at this instead as it prints much much better and you will be happier with the results:

Summary

Lights for Babboe Bakfiets cargo bike.

These were made specifically for the e-curve which has a 20 mm mount on the front of the bike where the factory provided lights go.

The mounting bolt is hollow to allow cables to be run internally into the units

I used waterproof 5V LED lamps purchases on Ali, so they can be powered with a USB battery pack.

10mm https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32846365784.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dY7RH8K

22mm https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32848939798.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dY7RH8K

Printing

Parts print without support, however the bridging is quite extreme and the print can be a little messy (see pictures). Print all pieces flat on the build plate as per my picture from cura.

Print time is approx 8 hours @70mms for each side.

List of required parts.

2 x 10mm red lights 4 x 22mm white lights 4 x m2*10 bolts

Future Plans

I plan on making a rear light with a gps tracker built into in the future for my bakfiets so follow me if this interests you.
