Roger's Unicycles are normally covered in lots of prototype parts! So this one is actually a little different, lots of standard production parts here.

Today we are taking a Look at Roger's 26" Disc Muni.

As usual we will start at the top and work our way down.  Perched on top of a Nimbus Aluminium Seatpost we have one of the first Nimbus Stadium saddles with the red highlights.A Red Nimbus Double bolt seatpost clamp is holding his seatpost securely to the beautiful 26" Impact Gravity frame. The Bengal Helix Disc brake with a 180mm rotor takes care of the braking. As with most 26" Muni's Roger has fitted the 3" Duro Wildlife Leopard tyre and has tried to save a little weight by using a Foss tube. The rest of his Muni is made up from an old Nimbus Dominator II rim and a Nimbus LT disc hub. To make this hub fit the frame Roger has swapped the standard 42mm bearings for the 32mm version.
Some well worn 150mm Venture II cranks and Nimbus metal DX pedals finish of this unicycle.

Paul, Nick and I have all decided to upgrade our Unicycles with Impact parts. After the massive Impact delivery we just couldn't resist the Impact Frames!

This is Paul's hockey Unicycle. He has replaced his frame with a 20" Impact 'Gravity' Longneck Frame - Black. He has also added a Blue KH seatpost clamp and a White Bumper and Handle to the saddle.





I have upgraded my MUni frame to a  24" Impact 'Gravity' Frame - White. I added some Gusset 'Pinhead' Pedals in White and a White Bumper and Handle to the saddle.



Nick has also upgraded his Hockey unicycle with a 20" Impact 'Gravity' Longneck Frame - Black with a White Impact Clamp. You wouldn't believe how many "upgrades" this unicycle has been through as it originally started out as a KH Flatland Unicycle. Nick is definitely the girliest person in the office when it comes to shopping!



Three VERY happy member's of staff here at Unicycle.com.



I suppose we should probably get back to the office now.. It's been a fun morning.



 

 

Make your wheel stand out in the crowd by adding some coloured nipples.



Here we can see I've rebuilt my wheel using four different coloured spoke nipples to add some addiotional colour to my Nimbus Equinox wheel, and of course a Blue rocket valve cap.

If you fancy building a custom wheel, why not get in touch, after all we do offer a wheel building service.
