Jogi, nice looking MUni! :sunglasses:
Do you have any issues with the spokes?

I ride them just a few days but I m curious how durable they will be… :roll_eyes:

I believe they are hard to build with but if the wheel is well built, then all should be well. The spokes are reputably the strongest spoke available.

I got a new 29er recently :smiley:

Specifications: Old school KH05 29er

-Seat: Nimbus Gel, something like 07?

-Seatpost: KH Adjustable Rail Post

-Rail adapter:KH

-Seatclamp: Random KALLOY SC-204 Single bolt Seat Clamp

-Frame: KH05

-Wheelset: KH05 with 150’s, KH/Onza hub, Kenda Klaw XT 2.1’’ tyre, random VP pedals

-Old HS22 Magura with Delta Lever Extender

I love it.

Pic’s of both uni’s, 24’’ and 29’’ :smiley:

My Nimbus 24 Muni

Only non-stock parts are KH dual-hole 125-150’s and Felt Berm Master Tire.

Did you photoshop the B2 in that photo?

Save the picture, then zoom in on it, and you tell me.:smiley:

My new Nimbus 26" MUni just arrived last week! I love it. It rolls over nearly everything. It is a full 28" in diameter so it does present some new challenges. It doesn’t fit on the bus like my old 24" Torker LX for one thing, and I’ve found that I have to adjust the way I climb up hills – I can’t lean forward as much or I end up dumped out on the trail.

It is all stock (as sold by UDC) except for KH 125/150 moments and a used Maggie HS33 brake from Brycer1968. That saved me a good $80 compared to getting a brake from UDC.

The mix and match color scheme wasn’t necessarily on purpose but I’ve grown to love it…My family has affectionately named him Sparky.

Nice. Same colour as my tandem :slight_smile:
Not sure about the spokes though - are they really salmon pink?

Rob

They are metallic red, and match the pedals and seat post clamp :wink:

Thats pretty hot Corbin- not sure about the blue rim strip though. I’d get a black one instead of the blue. Are you riding this more than your 24" gmuni with franken handle bar? I’d be interested to hear what your preference is.
cheers,
mark

Hey Mark,
My 24" I was still riding up till last week when I put this one together. The handle bar I still like better and I’ll probably modify the T bar with a new T that is slightly wider.

The 26" with the 2.3" tire is a lot lighter than the 24" with the 3" tire and heavy tube. So far, I feel slower on the 26" on fast/bumpy downhills because the 24 + 3" tire does more absorbing of the bumps. I’m going to give it some time and see if I get faster with it, as I do like the lightness of it. It makes rolling hops much easier!

This is pretty much the same assumption I came to before Unicon – however, the hub bearings were starting to fail before Unicon so I sent it in for repair. I decided to stick with the 24" for unicon as I was faster on it on the downhill.

During Nationals (NAUC 2010 / UGames), I was the fastest downhill rider with the 24" + 3" tire.

Nice! Now you gotta go out and get some battle scars on it, and get it good 'n dirty! :smiley:

Corbin, have you thought about trying a 26x2.5 tire? Seems like it might be a compromise between the 24x3 and the 26x2.3.

hey andy – yeah, that’s what I’m going to do next when the 2.3 gets a little more worn down.
