We all know that you can get some pretty weird stuff on ebay, like elvis’s disposable plastic cup, or a piece of toast with the virgin mary on it. What have you found that you thought was odd or weird on there?
Unfortunately that’s a unicycle designed by someone who doesn’t ride a unicycle. That particular implementation is at least 2 years old and is indeed a WTF (Worse Than Failure). At least it’s rideable. But it won’t hold up.
I like the quick-release seat-post clamp. It looks really heavy-duty, and a good idea, sticking right out where you can get at it easily. And does resin mean plastic? Those plastic pedals are a good idea – to offset some of the weight of the CHROME. Also, leaving off the handle saves weight, too. And I like the versatility. The 20" MUni also doubles as a trials uni.
Well you’ve got a 20hp B&S engine running on full tilt the whole time, plus a subaru flat four auto engine running pretty hard too, it probably doesn’t do too good.
An engine designed to run at a constant rate can be made very economical, shirley? 20hp is nothing either, so compared to the big one it will use very little fuel.
I saw that in a bike shop. I gave it a try and it weighs more than any square taper uni should. I loved the picture that shows nothing but the pedal though.
They get 20 grand and they never get laid again. If I was rich I would pay one of them and get “I have Genital Warts” tattooed on the guy’s head, or maybe just “Dumbass” or “I’m a tool”.
True, I guess being a briggs and stratton it’s probably a utility engine so runs at fixed rate with a regulator. I used to fly an F3 hovercraft at school, it had a 250cc twin cylinder bike engine outputting about 27 hp i think but it could eat through fuel because you had to have it going at ballistic rpm the whole time. Unfortunately this also meant it was prone to failure, last i saw of it one of the pistons had a hole in it you could get your finger through.
