Default Matching Geared KH 24 Mountain Unicycles


(copied from my blog: http://tinyurl.com/a5toaz )

Louise and I have (somewhat) matching Geared KH 24 Mountain Unicycles.
Here's the final product of the paint job I did *ages* ago. Click on the
blog entry above for larger pictures, and more details.

So far, she has a few rides under her belt, and she really enjoys it --
especially on the long fireroads out to some trails (like Braille Trail,
Soquel Demo forest, Santa Cruz, CA)

Those are some sweet wheels. I love how the rim strips match the paint
chips.


I really need to get a job so I can afford some new toys

Hehe..yeah; I wanted to get a black rim tape, but never got around to
it. Luckily the paint on the rim has been staying nice, since it
generally doesn't get banged against rocks. If I paint it again, i'll
definitely strip all the blue off of the frame first!

These will be our Africa tour vehicles.

Those are some cool g-muni's. Does a g-uni feel the same in 1:1 as
riding an ungeared uni?

In that first picture, they look as though they are in love.

They pretty much feel the same. There is a slight amount of play in the
hub, but it is nothing that ever bothers me. In addition, the hub does
add a few pounds of weight, so it is a little harder to hop over
branches/logs.

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.- Bob Burnquist
