any one ever heard of a mongoose squid?
ok, I already got the squid. I hope it repairs well. I went hoping and went down two steps and I bend the hub and both cranks. I had it togehter and was riding it about twenty minutes. that sucked. the frame is not to heavy for me. it seems ok. I lowered the seat to get some more jump to it and got up the stairs (before it broke). I need something heavy duty!. I am 6' 3'' and 250. is there any unis that might handle it? I have broke to different ones already. I would like to start do some stunts, because riding around not doing much else is getting uneventful. -- openhartchiropractic ------------------------------------------------------------------------ openhartchiropractic's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/17914 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/73811 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Get the nimbus with kh cranks. Here's the 'Link' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=1091) They have a few colors to pick from. If you have alot of money, maybe go for the kh 08 trials unicycle, the 'longneck' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=1270) is really nice for trials and street. I believe it also saves you weight since you can cut your seat post down much more. There's no reason to get the shorter frame, unless you fancy it more, really. Or, if your fine with the nimbus, a great unicycle (I ride that same set up pretty much) you could upgrade to a 'carbon fiber seat base' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=259). The kh comes with both trials and street pedals, but if you get the nimbus you might want to upgrade for street the 'Ody. Pc's' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=1319) are a really great pedal that many of us ride, they are what come with the kh. For trials wellgo mg1's are somewhat popular, they can be found on ebay. Since they are mag. you'll have to take the pins out of one side or you'll rip them out. I ride Kona jack****s on my trials, they are nice and grippy. -- wickedbob R.I.P MITCH HEDBERG 'Add wickedbob to your ignore list' (http://tinyurl.com/3dfrko). Ducttape wrote: haha!
