What hub is on a summit? How good is it?

fexnix · September 17, 2005, 9:09am

i think the hub is something like the 2004 KH hub.

juggle508 · September 17, 2005, 9:10am

I don’t know bout the hub…but have heard that it is a great unicycle. Kinda on the heavy side but over all its great. It was kinda a copy off of the 03(?) KH unicycle. So over all i think that they are made almost alike.

need $$$

Aghh, I wish I had some money to buy that.

Here are the specs: the tire is a Luna “Bike Trial” 20 x 2.5", on an Alex Rims DX-32 rim, black, drilled for a Schraeder valve (like a standard car tire). The saddle is a Viscount with bash gaurds front & rear, with what seems to be real leather. Max seat height from the center of the axle to the top of the saddle is about 70cm; minimum is around 55cm. I am 5’10" and I fit at the top end of the range. Seatpost adjusts with two hex bolts.

Condition is excellent. I have barely used this unicycle at all. All the little knubs or hairs are still on the tires. However, as happens when riding, I have dropped it a couple times and there are some light scuffs on the bash gaurds (no damage to the leather) and some small paint chips on the fork crown (the flat part near the top). This unicycle has a fair amount of friction in the main axle from when it was new; it might need a little adjustment or it might go away with more use, but it shouldn’t affect your riding unless you plan on entering a race…

Shipping will be actual UPS charges, which may be fairly high ($30-40?) if the package needs to be oversized. After the auction, I will contact you with the total once I have your ZIP code. I will ship to the 48 continental United States only, no exceptions. Please do not email me asking to ship to other countries. I will insure for the auction value.

The hub, wheel and frame are bombproof. The hub & cranks are labelled ‘Man-O-War’ and are identical to the splined KH '04 cycles as far as I can tell. After a full year of hard trials use, I shattered the stock Wellgo pedals, chipped and rubbed off the the frame paint and destroyed the stock Viscount seat on my Summit, but everything else has lasted wonderfully. It’s an awesome starter unicycle at an awesome price.

Watch out for the ankle-eating nubs on the cranks.

PAY PAL ONLY

Woah nice, 30$… I’d hit it.

The summit was s’posed to be a KH model but it it was turned down by Mr. Holm on account of it’s slightly “heavier than expected” weight.

The manufacturers, not expecting this had already started producing a butt-load of these so had no other choice but to market them as a “Summit” and not a KH 03 or something.

Atleast I THINK that’s how it went down…

abbabibble · September 18, 2005, 9:37am

who wants to place wagers against that it’ll hit $200?

Spudman · September 18, 2005, 9:43am

Yeah, really. I’ll bet that the final bid is placed with 5 days to go.

Oh, well, you know the type of people that buy these things…
