A Fat Unicycle. Is it a Robson Rim?

Is that a 24" old Nimbus II frame? If so you have just answered my question to myself earlier this afternoon as to whether it could fit a fat tyre as my Schwalbe Crazy Bob 2.35 has bags of room to the sides and above it. What’s the spec of the rim and tyre?

Unsure. I didn’t break the tire down off the rim , I just changed the bearings cleaned the outside of the rim and tire, adjusted a few spokes, changed the cranks to 102mm, and went with an older, well broken in free ride saddle.

I found this on ebay (USA), not sure when it was built originally. I thought maybe someone at unicycle.com might be able to tell me about it, but I haven’t contacted them yet.

That is the rim and tire that came on the China made Schwinn choppers. They were terrible to ride but looked “cool”

Uni . Com probably sourced the rim and tire then built and retailed a uni around it.
