My New Bedford Trials BC wheel
jagur wrote: *so how is the fatter tyre working out for you? whats your opinion compared to the skinner wheel you had befor it? any vids yet? * The fatter tire definately makes it smoother to ride and drops are easier. On my normal bc I had a bad habit of rubbing the tire against my leg alot and it wasnt a problem with the kenda tire but with a trials tire it tears up my leg, the side of my 661s doesnt exist anymore so i stuff it with a sock so my leg doesnt get cut up. So basically most of the riding i have done on it is just to get used to bowing my legs more and not leaning the wheel (it still rubs but not as often or as hard as before) At the moment my hop hight is higher on the skinny tire than the trials because im still not used to hopping on the heavier trials wheel, it feels alot different to me. I dont have any vids yet but hopefully i will soon, once i get more comfortable with it and i get someone to film me i will start. Now im back in school so i dont have as much time to do stuff. -Spencer -- litldude2 - Spencer Gallery.unicyclist.com/spencer ________________ LitlDude2: you suck Byrnetown: yea ________________ beware of the evan! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ litldude2's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6134 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42422 |

My New Bedford Trials BC wheel
It's a 50$ wheel from the LBS, and some free angle iron from a local welding shop. I hacksawed the extra bits off the (14mm) axle, and now it's awesome to ride. The kenda k-rad is from my old 20", and I sanded it down a bit and put some metallic red paint on the plates. I'm very happy with how it turned out, and all for 50$ no less! +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Attachment filename: dsc05055.jpg | |Download attachment: http://www.unicyclist.com/attachment/350526| +----------------------------------------------------------------+ -- flyer - Level 5 Unicyclist ------------------------------------------------------------------------ flyer's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9894 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42422 |

Don`t those outstanding screws hurt when pressing your feet against it to hop?

that gets asked a lot - and they do hurt if your feet don't quite fit them, but on the other side of it, your feet are under them slightly, so that when you do hop, you have something to pull up on the wheel with. -- flyer - Level 5 Unicyclist ------------------------------------------------------------------------ flyer's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9894 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42422 |

Jeff Groves has but cane tips on the nuts so they dont hurt his feet. When I am just riding normally they dont hurt me at all but if im hopping over stuff and i crash sometimes the wheel goes sideways and the bolt goes right into my foot. Once there is a bruise on your foot just riding it normally hurts really bad. -- litldude2 - Spencer Gallery.unicyclist.com/spencer ________________ LitlDude2: you suck Byrnetown: yea ________________ beware of the evan! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ litldude2's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6134 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42422 |
