the knurling on the frame is weak. he could do MUCH better on the cranks, especially since they aren't painted. -- skrobo Unicycle For Christ 'MY VIDEOS-for enjoyment purposes' (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=skroboskim) do it for the joy, do it for the fun, do it for the looks on people's faces when ...

Painted cranks will be not painted for long so I'm cool with the silver.

no, i'm saying keep the silver for sure. the knurling could just be on that one part of the crank, perhaps polished as well, that would be a big plus -- skrobo Unicycle For Christ 'MY VIDEOS-for enjoyment purposes' (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=skroboskim) do it for the joy, do it for the fun, do it for the looks on people's faces when ...

Knurling is really overrated and really overhyped to be honest. It'll just be more effort for the manufacturer and can prompt further rises in price. Plus it doesn't look very neat. Doing it to the cranks'd be silly as when you do grinds or crankgrabs (yes, it happens on occasion even to the strictest of all pedalgrabbers) it will ruin the knurling texture. It's cheaper, easier, and WAY more effective to use griptape. Plus it's replaceable too incase it wears out, unlike knurling. Griptape does a much better job of gripping your feet. You can get different grades of griptape too... A friend of mine uses clear griptape, which you can buy off ebay very cheaply and easily. This has tiny crystal-like grains which protrude a bit more than the sandy texture of normal skateboard black griptape, so it is better in the wet and also looks more 'low profile' due to its clear colour. [image: http://www.sickboards.nl/catalog/ima...rip_small.jpg] Of course, different brands of griptape have different textures and grain thickness. The Jessups brand is pretty good for one. -- Sponge MSN: feel free to add *"If you're **** at trials, go do flat."- Joe Hodges* *'TRITON SPONGE' (http://tinyurl.com/2r7jk6)* -Titanium frames, available in 19", 24", 26", 29", 36"- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponge's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11883 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/53289 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
