I love the old blue and red rims they had. I have a red 29” and parts for a 20” as well as blue 20” that is identical to yours except it’s isis and a blue 26er I just got. Judging by the worn down grab handle the previous owner of my 20 did quite a bit of seat drag.
This is the new 26” I found on OfferUp a few days ago for $25. I’ll probably dig my 20” nimbus out to borrow the 114mm cranks and put them on the 26”. I’m thinking of trying to redrill those ventures into multi hole. I want this to be more of a cruiser so 150 is much too long.
I have that same exact 26”, but you found a much better deal that I did (and I was completely happy with the deal I found). The deal you found is amazing for that unicycle.
It was a great deal indeed. I’m so happy to have found it since I love the color of it and I had been wanting an isis 24 or 26 like this so I could have a cruiser with multi hole cranks. I’ve been loving my 24” torker with 89mm cranks but sometimes I want something just a little bit faster and sometimes I want just a bit more torque for low speed riding or rougher terrain. I think an older nimbus II like this is what I had actually hoped to get. Now I just have to look for a newer muni and get rid of some wheels and the fleet will be done for the time being
Hello Uni2ONE2
It is very interesting for me to see your photo! I have an old 29" with the same frame and the blue rim. I have wondered which model it was, so it is nice to know that it most likely is a Nimbus
Sadly enough I can’t mount it any longer. I’m getting older …
BR
Oh I hadn’t even paid attention to their presence. I think my 20” club still has them along with the thrift store price tag although none of them are readable. After I re-drill those ventures I’ll either stamp a letter into the backside if I am so inclined or I’ll just rely on the nimbus text on the hub to know which side is which. I’ll go peel some stickers off now for your viewing pleasure
Can you get too old for mounting unicycles?? I wanna do this til the end.
Prolly will destroy my knee joints along the way with the UWs. Today I called the doctor about my knees, but I didn’t mention anything about unicycles. I want to hear other solutions than ‘stop what ur doing’ and ‘lose weight’.
It’s kinda like magnets now. + and - will offset each other.
EDIT: only a day later I realised that these are all R stickers, despite the different colours .
If sou need more, I know someone who‘s selling a (like) new set… But be quick, or @PedalSprell will beat you to it!
This seems like a terrible plan. I speak as someone who has mounted my wheel backwards on multiple occasions (and damaged my cranks), often in spite of valid stickers already being present. Your idea is evil! You monster!
This is a terrific plan! Whenever you damage your 100 mm holes I end up with a pair of 125/150mm cranks! I shall proceed to swich around your stickers in an unpredictable manner.
Maybe you can damage them the other way from 150 towards 125. Then maybe slowly I will also get used to shorter cranks. I quickly changed back from 125 to 150 when I tried a few weeks ago.
To my defence, I actually pointed out your mistake last time you were about to do this (after knighting@sircranky). Saving you a lot of pain and frustration
You really should pay more attention to your seat and pedal orientation after a change. Does it look right or wrong? No need for stickers at all, other than having a much cooler unicycle.
