the Super 29er is almost compleated but its still not close enough to give the details.there are just a couple more things to add,then there will be full disclosure of all the parts that make up this 700c muni mobile.untill then (2 more weeks) here is a very low rez sneek peek.
i had to test the wheel out after i built it so what better than a 3 stair drop just out my front door.i wonder how far i can go before,toco
you need Quicktime to view it,if you have Quicktime then all you need to do is left click to view it or right click to download it.
here is the link to where it is in the gallery: http://www.unicyclist.com/gallery/albuq97
maybe it will be easier for you guys to view in there,its last vid on the bottom.its about 887k
its about 25 inches high and i shot out about 3 feet.not the highest drop in the world but on a 29er it feels reckless.i plan on dropping a little higher when everything settles a bit.
Check out the tire bottoming out on the landing, good thing you added air before the next jump. Might be a good idea to lower the seat in future testing, hurts me just watching the videos.
So what’s next maybe a picnic table? Can’t wait to see more testing footage, keep them coming.
we just got back from Champoog,we rode out there yesterday on b*kes and camped.
as for more drop testing,yeah i want to cruz to Englewood and do a picnic table.i think my wheel could take it.my tyre bottomed out and that was with 50 psi.,now some of you guys know why i mentioned putting in 65psi.
im haveing trouble mounting my brake lever,i hope i dont end up have to shell out $50 on a Wilder adapter,i already broke one of those.
about the brake lever attachment, iv been people cut a bmx handlebar at part of the bend, smash the ends of thier section, and drill holes for the handle and seat post bolts.
