Everyone knows that a pneumatic tire greater than 36" in diameter is the holy grail of distance riding. Why would someone post that they have such a thing in this thread and not support it with photographic evidence? There's not even a description of how it was done. This would have taken either something extremely clever or an extremely large investment. One can only assume that given the complete lack of proof of existence that this is a hoax put forward by someone who desperately craves attention. Why continue to give such a person any attention until either the evidence or an apology appears? -- ħǻřрέŗ -Greg Harper *jc is the only main man. there can be no other.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ħǻřрέŗ's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16260 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/66279 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

ħǻřрέŗ, who are you? You're not the real Harper, because his account is 6 years older than yours! One Harper is enough for us all to share; two would be just greedy. ħǻřрέŗ wrote: Everyone knows that a pneumatic tire greater than 36" in diameter is the holy grail of distance riding.

C'mon, lets cut the guy some slack - he actually has explained how it was done in other threads. I think it wasn't actually a pneumatic tyre in the end, though I could be wrong... He said the rim was custom but I thought the tyre was solid rubber. This would have taken either something extremely clever or an extremely large investment.

I don't doubt that he has a 40" unicycle. There are a good number of hard rubber tire unicycles larger than 36" in existence. However, calling it a coker is misleading. Since that's become an analogy for a unicycle with a 36" pneumatic tire on this forum. Merry Xmas btw!! mark williamson wrote: C'mon, lets cut the guy some slack - he actually has explained how it was done in other threads.

Hazmat has said that his machine was originally a normal coker - and he had his local bike guys mutate it Presumably they mutated it using toxic waste - hazardous materials, if you will!

Have any of you ever entered in bike races, like street. I've heard of people doing it, but I don't know if every race allows that.
