Flansberrium unicycles

There have been times when men had posters of naked girls in their lockers …now we’ll have flansberrium pin-up frames;)

I got a roll of it last week for mine! It’s closer to yellow but it’ll probably look awesome still :smiley:

Best comment so far :smiley:

OK, I wasn’t going to bring this up before, but now that the color matches, it’s kinda hard not to…

Hey Jacob, Any update on materials for your next batch? Any plans to twist that aluminum into something like this?!

My supplier said January, so I should have news pretty soon. I will send an email tomorrow.

I did not plan on changing my design, as I said in the other thread, I very rarely hit my legs on the frame. It mostly happens when I’m doing dumb stuff :stuck_out_tongue:

I will update you when I get my stuff :wink:

Humm, I might have a problem!

if you have problems with knies your saddle is to high.
lower your seat position and everything will be well

My problem is doing dumb stuff, not knee banging.

Glad to hear both Jacok and Killian don’t seem to have a problem hitting knees on fatties. I mean if man can ride a horse…I figure we can avoid knee banging.

I hit my knees a fair amount but it’s never very hard and goes away with time in the saddle.

Meet Big Mac.

To build and true the wheel without a frame, I 3D printed bearing adapters for a truing stand. Easy and cheap – outsourced to Shapeways for ~ $5 per adapter.

Why’s your tyre filled with Wotsits? :thinking:

I couldn’t do that. Makes me darn hungry when Im riding..

Wotsits eliminate the tube vs. tubeless controversy. Wotsits-filled tires are commonly known to have the ideal tire pressure and puffiness. Instead of pinched tube problems with big drops, Wotsits have the further benefit of emitting a wonderful cheese odor thus the tagline “you only get a whoosh with a Wotsit.”

Actually, the tape is mac 'n cheese duct tape. It’s random and will hopefully somewhat match the color of Jakob’s orange bomber frame. Never heard of a wotsit – in the States, we call them Cheese Doodles.

Seems legit :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ve never seen patterned tape like that… Makes me want a drilled-out rim now! :smiley: Looks cool!

It’s an ECHO mod SL rim. They don’t make them anymore, but HB trials has a couple of them left. : )

Double walled with offset cutouts. They look really cool from the side because of how deep they are.

HOLY MAC 'N CHEESE! That tire looks humongous… I still didn’t get mines, I dont know where they are :frowning:

I did a mac-n-cheese conversion on our demo fatbike at the shop. It’s probably much faster now.

I like that. I can’t wait to start building the rest :wink:

Freewheel fattie? Or why do you use a b*ke hub?
