I’ve known for quite a while that my one friend from school got a unicycle at about the same time I did and has been riding ever since…what I didn’t know is that her father also rode. (something tells me I should, but I didn’t)
He was clearing out and said that he rode his trials more than his MUni, and in a fit of generosity came by my house and dropped off a Nimbus. I plan on going up to the trails and riding it tomorrow, nothing too big as it’s not splined, but still. No drops for this lil’ guy but I can still stick to the trail. I’m going to get the wheel trued up(loose spokes) and maybe take some pressure out of the tire so it can compress then try it out!
Specs:
nimbus gel saddle, red
nimbus II 24" frame
unknown seatpost, knurled
UDC hub
Mel 152mm forged cranks as well as spare Prowheel 152mm, Mel 140mm, PRO 127mm, and almost ridiculously long(to me)165mm MELs
pinned metal pedals, red
unbranded 24" red rim, appears to be double walled though I haven’t taken the tire off yet, not really wide and it doesn’t have eyelets but I’m new at MUni so whatever…
gazz 24" tire
48 spokes 4 cross pattern, all spoke holes in rim are adjacent to each other due to thin build
black quick release seat clamp
It’s fairly new, the R and L stickers are still on the frame.
The main thing I’m going to replace on it for now are the crank bolts as I like the ones that work with an allan wrench instead of having to borrow a socket wrench every time I need to tighten them. Also they look better as compared to this kind when the dust caps go missing.
Pics up sometime after I true the wheel.
That reminds me, my ne kh trials is supposed to be delivered tomorrow!
