Probably aluminium, otherwise it must be really heavy.

I saw the frame at the GMTW 2005. It was pretty light and it was sweeeeeet.

As far as i know Yoggi has broken it 2 month after i saw it (there was a picture of that somewhere... the seat tube just went away )

But it was only a prototyp

Dont know how old the picture of Rodgeriego is... maybe its a new reinforced version of it

I know that Yoggi had it at the last BUC but it was a prototype i was just wondering whether anybody knew if it was going to be manufactured.
Can't believe he snapped it there

i'd assume thats where most frames would snap, as thats where a lot of pressure forms on the join, and thats where my frame snapped.
anyways, if i had one of those frames at my local unicycle shop, and i had to choose between that and a KH frame you know which i would choose...
the question is, how much cheaper does a frame have to be for me to choose it over a hk? yet to be seen, tho i bought a nimbus II frame for NZ$60 where then KH would have cost me NZ$250 about...

Woah, that uni does look pretty sweet. The frame separates into 2? Is that what the silver joint is where the stem meets the fork? I'm guess that the point of that is for transporting the uni, so that if you take the uni with you on a trip, you can separate the stem (and saddle), take off the pedals, and be able to fit the whole uni in a duffle bag.

If it's strong enough, i'd love that idea. The folks at the train station always get on my case about transporting my uni, and say crap like "you have to pay extra for bring bikes on the train" even though my separated uni is much smaller than most of the luggage that people bring on. Arghhh! When i remove the seat and pedals, the stem still sticks out the top of a garbage bag, so this uni would be better. Hmm.

The only reason it's lighter is that it only has one crank
