Alright, I avoided using derrogatory language, but this is just too far. You are a fool. You can’t just make up your own standards and expect others to conform to them. How would you sell a frame to someone if they had to get an entirely new seatpost only manufactured by you to fit it? Also, even if you used 3/4" OD tubing, you would have to be able to figure out the ID of the tubing you would be buying. Just saying you’ll use 3/4 tubing isn’t a solution at all. That comment just shows that you have no idea what you’re doing. ---

total\_uni, Since this thread is a request for an inexpensive Coker frame and since you have volunteered to make one for the requested $50 or less then I guess I’ll bite. total\_uni, I’ll take one of your custom frames. Let me know when it will be done, how much it will cost to ship (to zip code 84062), and what the total cost will be (keep it around $50 as per the original offer). Personally I, like some others here, don’t believe you can do it but I’m willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. Build me a functional Coker frame for less than $50 and prove the doubters wrong! Hey, if you actually deliver then maybe this could be your new claim to unicycling fame. I will leave you free to design the frame any way you feel is appropriate. The only requirements that I will insist on are that it must accomodate a standard Coker wheel and a standard (you can pick the standard) seatpost. Since you already have the required tools at your disposal I expect that you should be able to complete this task fairly quickly. Therefore I will impose a deadline of 01/20 (my birthday). So, less talk and more frame building. -mg ---

I am 5’ 6", have an inseam length of 30" (note that this, while better than just height, leaves out foot length and ankle height) and have about an inch or two of seat adjustment left on my standard Coker. ---

The thread you linked to didn’t say jack s\*\*\* about how long it takes to build a frame. Evan, do yourslef a favor and don’t get a job in debates. Also, if I can machine a frame from 4 pieces of solid aluminum in 5+ weeks, if you know what you’re doing you should be able to finish a simple welded one in less than 4. ---

> [@](#): > > Originally posted by total uni > WHERE DID I SAY 50 BUCKS?!?!?!?! nick said that he wanted a frame for $50 or less, and by replying that you did not know where he could buy one for that price, but that you could make him one, obviously implied that you wouldnt ask for more than $50 for it. ---

> [@](#): > > Originally posted by Gilby > It’s a pretty common marketing strategy used by many companies to lock the customer into buying replacement parts from them. True, but Evan’s not gonna have the production or quality levels required to oust the current stadards in place on the market. Scott did that with the lightfoot hubs, and it didn’t turn otu very well, although his uni’s are great. Also, replacing a current standard with an inferior on doesn’t usually work. ---

it appears that mr gerble is just as immature as total is because he is fighting like a pussy on the INTERNET over f-ing frame tubing and diameter with a 13 YEAR OLD! And i myself am thirteen and i know that any other 13 year old cant build a good frame. I might be wrong, but you just don’t have the EXPERIANCE or TIME to do it. YOU BOTH SOUND LIKE IDIOTS (_DUM ASSES_) FIGHTIN G ON AN INTERNET FORUM!!! SHUT UP!!! ---
