I think if you wanted one you would have to find a geared hub that would fit/work on a 36er....... I would like one as well...... but I don't have the money for one yet...... -- Ducttape *Coker Fund:*$683.31 *Freeride Seat with shipping will cost: *$64.84 *GB4 Handle with shipping will cost:* $64.95 *______________________________________ **Total cost for stuff: *$814.15* Current Progress *697.00*/*814.15'' (http://www.zazzle.com/Ducttapesunicycle) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ducttape's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12006 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58509 |

If you ask nicely maybe they could make you a custom 36" version of the Schlumpf Geared Unicycle. Other than that. I wouldn't have a clue. Unless you know someone who make you one.

Dave Stockton and I made a geared Coker (I think the first) with one of my hubs for Kris Holm. It's being passed around among several riders until Kris has room for it in his new digs. I believe Florian makes a frame for a 36" to fit his hubs. Mike Scalisi owns a geared Coker made from one of my hubs that Steve Howard modified. Pete Perron has made a few renditions of his jackshaft design in gear ratios of (approximately) 1.2, 1.6, and 1.9. Pete's design is the most flexible, I believe, in that there are many gear ratios that may be chosen from. His limitation is that it is fixed gear and the cogs must be changed to alter the ratio so no shifting during a ride. Pete's design may be available through Dave Stockton's Live Wire Unicycles. -- harper -Greg Harper *jc is the only main man. there can be no other.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ harper's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/426 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58509 |

'I wrote about it here' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44279) (if anyone cares to read a very mediocre rider's experiences with a geared Coker). maxcarriere, Greg's Coker is a one-speed (fast). You don't shift it. I don't know anything about other geared Cokers, though. -- uni57 20 GOTO 10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ uni57's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/2085 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58509 |

It requires removing a bolt and then inserting it in a different spot with a spacer. As far as I know, Ryan Atkins has it right now. And, by the way, Dave Lowell is der Uber rider of der Uber Coker. -- harper -Greg Harper *jc is the only main man. there can be no other.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ harper's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/426 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58509 |
