Uni cycle tube
« on: May 14, 2013, 01:25:32 PM »
I need to fit a new tube to my 20 inch uni cycle.
I have the tube but wonder if there is a trick to removing the pedals and wheel?
Anyone done this?

Matt - who would wheelie like to know how best to do it
 ;)

Edit.... just found 4 bolts to undo and drop out the axel
Piece of cake once you know what to do!
 ???

Never drink and drive. You may hit a bump  and spill your drink

Yup, once you go to the uni, a lot of things become clear.

Education is wonderful — for something. I'll let you know what as soon as I find out.

Well Unicycling  ::)

Are you Nuts  ???



Two Years ago out training for a 50km Mountain Bike Race



Climb a long uphill at speed  8)



My last Muni (Mountain Unicycle) I designed this Uni for One Mountain Bike race (the 50km one) I designed the Fork (frame) to have room for loads of Mud, It's Ti  8) 1st Uni in the World to have cable rooting for brake hose's. If you look close you will see it's got a Geared Hub in it, HS33 Brake, Custom made (by Me) Handle Bar!
You need a Handlebar because of having a Geared Hub? Fast  :P Yes My top riding speed was 28kph have been faster but have come off Too (At Speed  :( )

Back on Two Wheels as this Muni cost more then my "Tom"

Pete  ;)

The trouble with common sense is it is no longer common[

Hi Matt
It just takes Time and More Time to lean, Helps if a Unicyclist is around to help you with tip's.
I Started Riding one in 2004 and only got to a point that I was happy with in 2009 after the World's

Muni is how owned by one of the Top Unicyclist in the World  8)
