Beautiful unicycle.

Is that a KH top piece on a Thompson post? How do they match up? is the curve right?

I am interested about your brake bracket, Is there anything holding the clamp section of the lever body or is all the holding force on the bolt going through it? Could you take a picture of how it is set up?

For the two hose lines from one lever, I am guessing that you would be using the bleed hole. Does one of those fir-tree fittings fit in that hole? If it does this might be a pretty simple mod that could be great for anyone with a tendency to break cross over lines. Only problem I can see is without the wrap once around the seatpost it looks like you don’t have enough room to remove the seatpost without disconnecting the brake, or am I wrong?

I love the look of that Rain King tire, once my Vredistein wears out that might have to be my next tire.

Hi Saskatchewanian
Sorry for not replying to your Q’s.
Yes the KH top plate fits to a Thompson very well, you just have to angle the holes in and file the bottom a little so the bolts will angle in to the kh plate. I also make up some new tube nuts from 10mm SS rod, and drill and tap with M5x0.8 to fit the Thompson M5 bolts.
As for the brake brackethttp://http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=46326&page=6 I hope this help’s with set up?
I have damaged the cross over hose and have had a number of UPD with a stone/rock sticking in the tyre Its stopped at last until I find a BIG stick? Yes it fit’s into the bleed hole at the lever and You just have to get a second bleed bolt fit the brake cylinder.
Removing the seat? why?
