Hey Cokerheads, If you could design the ultimate Coker frame what would your
specifications be? Be as specific as you want and hold nothing back. I have a
friend that is wanting to get into builing unicycles and originally I wanted a
custom made muni but I want this first. Any response appreciated. Bye Bye and
keep riding.

It would exactly look like that one:
http://www.wuk.at/hochrad/einrad/martin.html
It’s frame & wheel design is technically the same that we are using for years
for our penny farthings. The four-pipe-frame system is very rigid, the wheel
itself is bulit of a V-shaped alu rim, a wide hub and 72 spokes.
As stated in http://www.wuk.at/hochrad/einrad/ ;-(sorry, german only;-) it was
built to minimize the visual difference between a panny-farthing-rider and a
uniyclist as people often yell “look a unicyclist” when they see us riding by on
our ordinaries.
The picture-series shows the first try ever on that 50" unicycle. You have to
have pretty long legs to reach the padals on 50", so currently we are
considering that frame design for a prototype with the coker tyre…
