How many parts...?

Ed Pratt who is about to finish his trip around the world on a unicycle shared with us how many parts he went though on his three and a half, 22,000 mile journey around the globe.

The majority of the components that Ed used on his unicycle were standard parts and supplied by Unicycle.com.  Although, however good those parts are, they are going to wear out and need replacing on such an epic journey.  This is of course emphasised by him undertaking the journey unsupported, so he carried all his own water, food, tent, clothes etc.  We had meant to weigh the unicycle when he called in to our office, but it was heavier than our scale that only goes to 32kg.  Ed estimates that the total weight is more like 42kg.

Frame: 1x Nimbus Oracle 36"
Hub: 1x Nimbus Oracle (composite version), 1x Nimbus Hatchet (Steel)
Rim: 2x Nimbus Stealth
Inner tube: about 6 standard 36" inner tubes, (plus I’ve used 29’’ mountain bike tubes as replacements when nothing else is available)
Tyre: 5x Nimbus Nightrider (standard weight)
Cranks: 1x KH Spirit duel crank 127/150mm (but he reckoned that 135/150 would’ve been more useful)
Pedal: 3x welgo (1 black, 2 red - red feels faster!)
Seatpost: 3x KH adjustable, 2x pivotal for the zero/one saddle
Saddles: 1x KH zero, 3x KH freeride, 1x prototype Stadium , 1x modified stadium (Stadium saddle with a 16’’ bike tube duct taped on top), 1x KH One saddle and his favourite 1x prototype air saddle.

Ed completes his journey tomorrow, 27th July 2018.  He will be finishing in Somerset at the headquarters of the charity he has been supporting during his journey School in a Bag.
