Louise and I have (somewhat) matching Geared KH 24 Mountain Unicycles. Here’s the final product of the paint job I did ages ago. Click on the blog entry above for larger pictures, and more details.
So far, she has a few rides under her belt, and she really enjoys it – especially on the long fireroads out to some trails (like Braille Trail, Soquel Demo forest, Santa Cruz, CA)
Hehe…yeah; I wanted to get a black rim tape, but never got around to it. Luckily the paint on the rim has been staying nice, since it generally doesn’t get banged against rocks. If I paint it again, i’ll definitely strip all the blue off of the frame first!
They pretty much feel the same. There is a slight amount of play in the hub, but it is nothing that ever bothers me. In addition, the hub does add a few pounds of weight, so it is a little harder to hop over branches/logs.
