Schlumpf 36er crank arms?
I have a 36er geared to 54 with a Harper hub. I'm pretty happy using 152s. -- mscalisi Unicycle for (reducing the) Buddha ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mscalisi's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4961 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64846 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

Schlumpf 36er crank arms?
I tried a geared 36 (harper hub) with 150s and it seemed like a pretty good size. Hans Fiby had (it got stolen) a schlumpf 36 and used 170mm cranks which seemed to fit him pretty well. If I were to have a geared 36 I would probably start with 150s and then mess around with the next longest crank size and the next smallest crank size to see which one gave me the most controlled and comfortable fast average speed. -- siafirede James = my name 'This' (http://www.myspace.com/clawsout) = my myspace Pump Air Not Gas ------------------------------------------------------------------------ siafirede's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6057 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64846 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

Schlumpf 36er crank arms?
A schlumpf 36??? How fast are you going???? BTW I am 5'8" and have a n36. I tried 170's for control and literally could hardly reach the pedal on the down stroke. -- rem48 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rem48's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15538 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64846 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

Schlumpf 36er crank arms?
A geared 36er is great! It's not so much about top speed, but about going fast more comfortably, and maintaining a higher average speed. to go 15+ mph on a regular 36er, you have to spin like mad, but on a geared up 36er it's much more casual. It's very noticeable when going down a mild slope. You almost don't notice how fast you're going. Less saddle-soreness too! rem48 wrote: A schlumpf 36??? How fast are you going????

Schlumpf 36er crank arms?
I am thinking 152s but I recall someone saying when geared, pedaling becomes mashing and I was wondering if people are running 160s maybe I have been waiting a while for the hub and it is finally being put together and hopefully I will have it in a week or two.
