Business logo thread

This thread is a repository of business/corporate logos that are purposely or accidentally suggestive of unicycling. Today at work I witnessed a team installing satellite transceivers on a fleet of trucks, and their logo instantly got my attention:

Seeing variations of the image on their website reinforces my belief that they had unicycling in mind when creating the logo. (of course I could still be imagining this)

If any of you have seen other logos that are like this please post them here.

(and my apologies if there’s already a similar thread, my searches turned up nothing)

Detroit Red Wings (NHL Hockey)

Apparently, Trek wants to abolish unicycles…:

… and other planets.

Nice contribution Mr. Foss! Incidentally, I often feel that unicycling feels like flying.

Austin Lee, I know many cyclists who assert that two wheels are better than four. Extending such thinking, I’d say one wheel is even better than that!

If John’s on counts, then what about the “old” CTC winged wheel logo?
And another one I’ve seen - no idea who that is though :wink:

the unicycle.com one is red

On the American site it is, yes.

Appropriateness is in the eye of the beholder, so if seeing a single wheel motivated by anything, (even non-human wings), works then the CTC one works. Thrice the wings, but still one wheel! :smiley:

[oh snap! I had nothing to say about the other mystery one, until I visited unicycle.com to check knoxuni’s comment, and saw it. Been a long time since I’ve visited that site, it’s all new to me now]

found another one

This time I didn’t wait to stumble upon one in my travels, I did some internet searching:

This is for a health care industry consulting firm, Unicycle Consulting. I would prefer logos that are or appear to be accidentally suggestive of unicycling, (like my first example), but they seem to be rare so I’m not going to be picky.

The logo at the bottom is a one-wheeler. And the name of the (moving) company is quite appropriately “UniGroup”!

Nice to see this collection of logos growing!

There’s a company quand is called “UniFirst” I dont know what is it for, but there’s no unicycle too on the logo… I just thought it was cool when I saw the truck yesterday:p

The company that makes Axe deodorant, Best Foods, and numerous other products is called Unilever.

Uni Asia, Unia, Unian, Uniair, Uniabc, Unibet, Uniblue, Unibanco, Unibooks, Uniball, Unibroue, Unibond… It’s a can of (uni)worms. :slight_smile:

Thank you, Klaas Bil for that. I don’t want to go down such a road, what we need here are logos - images.

I like the winged wheels only because they represent a single wheel motivated by a living force (bird-like wings), which is essentially what we unicyclists are.

Still, I’m on the hunt for more images like the first one, in which it is clear that the company has in mind an actual unicycle. In the two examples I found I am left wondering why a unicycle advances the company’s cause, unless it’s simply a way to assert that they are alone, with no peers or competition, the best…(don’t they understand that they risk giving the impression that they are clowns??)

OK, not quite a logo but it’s got one wheel on it, the Ashoka Chakra. Are there parallels betwenn unicycling and Buddhist symbolism?
