Rimjob.

Yep, I took a Sharpie today to the sidewall of my DX rim, I hate silver, makes parts look cheap and ugly.

Tomorrow if I don’t just sit around all day, I’m going to shorten the legs on the frame, I hate the tire clearance, it’s giving me major problems learning to wheel walk.

haha, rimjob…

Will the sharpie ink stay there long? I seem to recall doing something similar, (yes…some switches in my truck at work that kept losing their finish), and the sharpie ink wears off really fast. I guess as long as nothing touches the rim it might last a while, I’ll be interested to find out what happens with your “rimjob”.

hey, get some clear spraypaint and throw a few thin layers over it, it should last a while.
you can just spin the wheel, hold it steady, and spray as it goes around.

I disagree. Sharpee rimjobs make parts look cheap :slight_smile:

How about I chrome plate the whole unicycle. I’m sure it will look cheap and crappy.

Why would you want to make your unicycle look cheap and crappy?

I was kidding.

I hated the chrome looking machined sidewall, that’s why I quickly went over it with a Sharpie… I was originally intending to use model paint, and just go over it in black.

I know haha, I just wanted to give you a hard time.

Jerk. :frowning:

i sharpie parts on my unicycle just not parts that big…
things like the ends of my spokes, the bearing cap scres, the pedal bolt, and on my street cranks i painted them sparkly purple with nail polish and it came out great!

Your rim looks cool though, but to bad the finish wears off easy.

haha…rimjob…hard time… haha
