BC Wheel Rubbing on Leg when Mounting
When I get on my BC Wheel I can't stop the tire from rubbing my leg. It is destroying my pants/661s. Does any body have something that helps overcome this problem?

A skate mount is when you have one foot on the plates and then push with the other foot to get going. It's just like pushing a skateboard. -- littleman http://sixsixone.com/ gabetheunicycleman wrote: just a quick question for girl unicyclists, as guys we get nutted, do you ever get clitted.? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ littleman's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15401 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/75173 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

He'd better not be, if your leg is rubbing doing the skate mount there's some nasty dismount potential with the bc acting as a lever arm and your center of balance a foot away from the hub(especially with low plates). My guess is that you have a bc with pegs, not plates, and are practicing the "hold onto pole for dear life while attempting to push off" method? That seriously bruised my leg from just the pressure after a few hours of practice. I've never had a real issue with the tire rubbing; at one point it was rubbing just enough to be slightly annoying. Just take the 661s off and see if the extra space does anything. A good bc wheel helps also. -- nimblelight It doesn't really matter, because I am an afoodist who unicycles for food.
