Default Rollo-Discs


I've been hearing about these discs lately which I think are meant to
improve flatland and may be coming out later this year sometime.
So...If you know anything about these maybe you could answer these
questions.

-What are they?
-What do they do?
-How much are they worth?
-Where and How are they put on a unicycle?
-What unicycles/parts are these compatible with?
-Do they have a certain brand?

Disks that you attach to widen your cranks.
Make your cranks easier to stand on.
No one knows much yet, kris has yet to release them.
You screw them onto your crank.
KH Moment cranks.

They are these little discs that attach onto the side of KH cranks,
because KH cranks are rounded near the axel which makes it harder to
stand on them. Spencer has some basic ones that Olaf made on his uni,
and they work great for him. Kris is going to improve them a little
though so that they mold to the curve to make sure that they don't
rotate and loosen the crank. They are going to be awesome!
