My Rowing Muni

Here is what Joe Rowing wrote me about that specifc frame:

"It was specially made to order and if I remember correctly it has
slightly more height clearance than the other early ones. I believe it
will fit a gazalodi although I prefer a halo or kujo as they have a more
agile, rounder profile.
Everything on it was produced by myself. the machineing, tube bending,
brazing etc.
The material is T45 and 4130 cromo tube and I use special high strength
brazing filler.
The seat tube was made for a 22.2 cro-mo BMX post to be used with any of
the rail-adaptors or my own carbon bonded rail seats.
That said the standard 22.0 will *probably* just about fit.
The bearing holders are precision machined to take the 40mm bearings of
the profile hub. the standard square-taper hubs will also fit.
- the frame pre-dates the KH hubs and the more recent KH MKII hubs
(which I helped design)
The finish is powder-coating, the inside is all waxoiled to rust-proof.

If you're curious about the design - it was built to my own design as
the best MUni that money could produce.
the twin-tubes are to reduce width of the frame whilst still providing
plenty of clearance. It had to be steel to allow a little bit of zing
when flicking it through singletrack.
The twin stay at the back supports the rear stay in a much stiffer and
lighter way than the Hunter. "

Umm there's clearance for 3inch tyres like the gaz/kuo/duro tyres (which
it has in there).

I'm very happy you're pleased with it. It looks good!

Just to be pedantic it's a 24 inch "Blizzard" frame. Other designs/wheel
sizes etc are available.

"Rowing" is the surname of the builder although Officially it was sold
under the "One wheel Only" brand.

not true, i had a Wide Bite in my Rowing frame and it was closer to the
stays...a Gazz will fit but rub the sides under hard cranking.
