Yuni frame Torker or schwinn wheelset.
I was looking around on unicycle..com and i was wondering if the schwinn or torker wheel set would fit the yuni frame without any modifications being done. I know you guys are going to say dont get that wheelset but i dont have that much money to throw around right now. all i want is a decent frame a decent seat and something to roll with. could you guys help me out? thank you for your time. any response would be appreciated. -- Jazzist "this means something, this is important" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jazzist's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4359 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/27433 |

If you mean 'This' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=338) wheelset, it should be fine. as long as you plan to only ride around and try some tricks. no drops at all. welll, maybe curbs. and not lots of hopping. but otherwise it should last you awhile. the schwinn wheelset however probably wont fit in the frame. -- Max_Dingemans - Hey Look, who's that?

As previously mentioned, get the Black Torker Unistar. You get a decent saddle, a nice frame, and a 48 spoke alloy rim for a good price!!!!!!!!!!! -- Krashin'Kenny - Crash Tested If you ain't crashing, you ain't going fast enough!!!!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Krashin'Kenny's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/3420 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/27433 |

yes i heard you but the black unistar does not have a square fork which i one of the reasons i like the yuni frame. i would have looked at the black one more seriously but the round fork turned me off. -- Jazzist - unicyling guitarist "this means something, this is important" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jazzist's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4359 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/27433 |

I have a Torker wheelset on a Yuni frame it works just fine. I also have a toker hub in a 28" Yuni frame that I put a Sun doublewide rim and Gazz 3 x26(both from ebay) that I use for light muni, I love it. When you are on a budget you do what you can to keep riding. -- muddycycle - Nonchalance "What can possiby mystify a madman?"

A Torker wheel set for a budget uni is fine if you don't stress it. I replaced an old warped cottered wheel set with a torker wheel set on an old garage sale uni frame and have only bent cranks. Fortunately I stopped doing drops on the torker after I got a Summit Trials. If you're considering a Schwinn wheelset double check the bearing diameter, it may not be compatible. -- UniBrier - Its Time to Ride Steve DeKoekkoek - I've got a one track mind.
