Hunters in the UK

General
1

I had a look at the unicycle.com american site today and looked at all the lovely Munis on there which ain’t on the british one. It got me pondering as to whether it’s possible to get hold pf a hunter frame in the uk, and if so how much is shipping. I also noticed the DM vortex, which I presume is made in the UK if it’s made my DM. And if so how come it’s sold on the american unicycle.com and not the british one.

Vortex frames

I doubt if the Vortex is made in the UK as when I contacted DM last year I was told ‘No, I couldnt have one from the Uk and he has no plans to sell them in the UK’

I can only assume they are made in the US under licence of some kind.

Oh Geez, I read that title entirely wrong. Having been reading a short
while ago about the labour party banning foxhunting, I somehow assumed
this was related, and had this rather silly but superb picture of a gang of
us riding to hounds with the Cheshire hunt on unicycles, red coats, hats,
boots and riding crops. The whole works.

Sorry, I’ll go back to sleep now.

DM built the Vortex’s as a batch to sell in the USA I don’t think he has plans to build another batch.

Naomi check out a thread titled travels with a unicycle. The idea of unicycle fox hunting has come up before…Amusing imagery in abundance.

I don’t know exactly what you’re after, but have you seen the blizzard frames at uni.uk.com? Fairly similar shape to the Hunter, but having never seen a Hunter unicycle I am far from an expert.

Thanks for that BoogieJ, I must have missed that thread completely. Having
thought further I rather fancy the idea of hiring the full fancy dress and
turning up at the Cheshire Hunt with the muni and something like a trombone.
I wonder what the reaction would be, and would the hunt saboteurs have any
idea which side I was on? Watch out for me in the papers…I might just do
it, although I suspect I will have fallen before the first fence, especially
if the stirrup cups have been forthcoming.

Do you live in Cheshire?
Because I live in Macclesfield…Also in that fair shire. If you do we should get together for a ride.
