downhill bcing
i have no experience in bc whatsoever. but. i do like designing new crazy things for bcers. basically my idea is downhill mbc. or mountain bc wheeling. now some of you will be saying "hey, thats been done before, i rode mine down a mountain last week". that alone isnt my idea. my idea is to attatch a brake to a bc. but wait theres more! i also proppose to make clip in plate(s) for bcs. with optional brace to keep one calf and lower leg perfectly upright. ie. stop it from grazing the tire hence making it easier to push and get up using the brake to stop the uni running away from you when mounting or on steep slopes. whadda you think. prototype coming soon.... -- gabetheunicycleman hurrah for 3/4 flips ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gabetheunicycleman's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13054 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58680 |

well evan already has a disc brake bc. and putting clips on a bc would be like making a bomb, then taping yourself to it. -- iridemymuni maker of the happy birthday threads ive got: John Childs, Klaas Bill, Kris Holm, Samia, Harper, Bryan Stevens, Wobbling bear, Mike Swarbrick, Cathwoood, Scott Wallis, Mikefule, Raphael (jjuggle), James Potter, ITEMNO530, DogBowl, Yoopers, Habbywall, Terry and Jagur. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iridemymuni's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11900 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58680 |

I think it would look extremely cool if it was done, but it would be extremely hard. You would need a brake to slow down but once you let go of the brake the BC would slip out in front of you. -- tomtrevor 01010100 01101111 01101101 00100000 01010100 01110010 01100101 01110110 01101111 01110010 'KEEPIN' IT WHEEL' (www.mediahug.com/bikes) WHEEL WALK ON WATER BLUEGREENORANGEBLACKPURPLEREDWHITEYELLOW Thanks to my sponsers: my mum 'g' (http://www.google.com.au/)'o' (http://www.google.com.br/)'o' (http://www.google.co.uk/)'g' (http://www.google.com.ni/)'l' (http://www.google.to/)'i' (http://www.google.ch/)'n' (http://www.google.com.mt/)'g' (http://www.google.com.na/)'s' (http://www.google.rw/)'!'

Hahahahahaha, That wheel made a great addition to my DJ bike. The brake doesnt work so well unless you have an arm going up and behind one of your legs, this way you can lean back into it. The best way to do it is get a 24" bc '(Hint hint)' (http://tinyurl.com/3abems) and get a peice of a car tire, strap it to your leg and use that for your brake. Its a much better feel to slow with your leg than with your hand on a brake. -- Evan Byrne ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Evan Byrne's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9367 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58680 |
