24" elcheapo taiwanese uni with aftermarket bmx platform pedals and knobly tyre and a cheap seat thats covered in gaffer tape, with spiffy spokes and a horn. this uni was a replacement for my original uni which died at the skate park, lollypop beraing holders you know, nothing but trouble. it got an offroad tyre when i ordered my new uni, this ones going to go off road til its cheap + nasty hub and rim dies and then get an ecentric kangaroo wheel.

Right now, nothing. I do own a 26" Semcycle XL with a bent rim and a
20" Cycledesign with Sun Rhyno Lite rim that I need to put bearings on
and put back together. I have the bearings, just have to get them onto
the hub.

Now that is dedication! Riding your uni whilst contributing to the
group. I think Iāll stick to my office chair whilst typing for the
time being
Have fun!

Nope, sorry. Right now it needs a new hub though. Itās nice to have a spare Coker so that someone else can go on a ride with me.

I ride a 2002 20" Norco Trials Unicycle, with some crappy, steel, bent cranks; an improvised, home-made, āRed Greenā-style, gel seat; some craptacular welgo pedals; an Alex DX32 rim, and a Luna, 2.5" mod-trials bike back tire.
I also have two other āunisā that I dont ride for obvious reasons. Both of them are Norcoās, a 24" and a 20". My 24"'s frame is busted, and the rim is destroyedā¦ My 20"'s rim is cracked in half, and the seat-post is completely bent, plus neither of them have pedals, the cranks are completely strippedā¦
yeahā¦

So what is a Julien Monney style DM Custom? Suddenly my 20" DM Ringmaster Advanced is feeling jealous.
