Hello my name is Aaron Bazzana. I am a unicyclist from Vancouver. I have been riding unicycles for 3 years. I am looking for someone local that has an ultimate wheel so I could practice it before I buy one.
The one the a want is a 28" Nimbus Aluminium Ultimate Wheel - Gold, which will cost around $200. I want test one out before I put that much money into it.
If anyone could help me I would greatly appreciate it. Sorry if this is in the wrong Subforum!
Have you tried http://www.vanuni.com/ ?
That organization has a listserv, and you could easily sign up and ask your question there. You would be much more likely to have people see your post there than here.
Hi, I’m in Vancouver and I have a 28" ultimate wheel you can try, it’s homemade out of a 700c road wheel so it’s skinnier than the nimbus but you should be able to get the general idea.
Also I agree with Noli’s suggestion to sign up for the google group at http://www.vanuni.com/, we post group rides and other things relevant to local unicyclists
thanks
Thank you for the reply, pine! I was having trouble understanding how to post messages on the vanuni site. I did not see a forum to use. How should I go about that?
Also, thank you for the chance to try your ultimate wheel. I will get back to you at the end of the week to make plans for that!

I think you have to wait for someone to approve you before you post though.
