What does rain do to your unicycle?
If you are riding your unicycle in the rain or if you soak it with water, is it bad for it and will it ruin the bearings inside of it?  But if you ruin the bearings, how can you fix it? -- Governor ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Governor's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/18484 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/75102 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

What does rain do to your unicycle?
You live in the desert, what do you care? Rain makes your unicycle wet. Hosing it down probably does very little to it. Submerging it will eventually get water in the bearings. -- harper -Greg Harper *jc is the only main man. there can be no other.* "Natural logs are what you ride on a Mun'e'." - kevinalexandersmith ------------------------------------------------------------------------ harper's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/426 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/75102 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com
