Our new UDC Mk4 Penny Farthings are very nice, but a few of our customers like to add a personal touch to their Penny Farthing.

Customization

We've just completed another custom Penny, but this one was a little bit different. This Penny  was a little bit of a restoration as well as customization.

Usually our customers contact us wishing to purchase a new Penny Farthing and ask to change colours and components before we send it out. However, this Penny was actually sold a few years ago and has seen a decent amount of mileage. It unfortunately came to us in a bit of a bad way, as at the recent World Cycling Revival event it was involved in a bit of an accident during a polo match!

Penny Farthing Restoration

As you would expect it had the usual bumps and scrapes from being used. It also had a destroyed front wheel from another Penny running over it. We had to rebuild the front wheel with a new UDC 54" rim and spokes. The whole Penny was also treated to a new coat of paint in lovely "Postbox Red" (RAL 3020). While everything was apart we gave everything a good clean  and service. Finally we re-wrapped the handle bars which finished it off nicely.

Different Components

There is also a few different components on this Penny compared to the standard Penny. Besides the colour, the first thing you will probably notice is the cranks are shorter. It has a pair of the Venture2 cranks in 114mm. With the 54" wheel and these shorter cranks it means you can get up to a decent speed. There is also a Brooks saddle in black which fits the "style" of the Penny Farthing perfectly. Finally there is a pair of Shimano M324 SPD Pedals Which are double sided, one side SPD the other a flat pedal, perfect for this Penny.

Customizing your Penny Farthing

If you want to build your perfect Penny Farthing, please give us a call and we can discus this personally with you. We always make sure that you get the best components that work together both technically and visually.

You may have seen the limited edition candy coloured Frames we now have on the site.  We wanted to build up some Freestyle unicycles using these frames to make some pretty special and unique unicycles.

The Unicycle with the Red frame is a Nimbus Eclipse and we love how this colour pops and just looks awesome.  The specification of this is very similar to a standard (not that there is anything 'standard' about an Eclipse) Eclipse.

While the blue frame is the bigger brother of the Eclipse, so it has the wider (standard 100mm) bearing spacing. These have been built with some great little colour touches. Most mention-able is the coloured spoke nipples. Now that is what I call a custom build.
