Anyone gotten a chance to test ride the Schlumpf geared uni ?
Any commentary ? - on their 2 sizes, 24" or 28" ? - on their craftmanship / hub functionality / etc ? - on any other geared uni which might be available for purchase ?

I got a mail from Florian at Schlumf only this evening saying that they still had not finished things and they just needed time... and this was in short supply.

*He isn't even coming to the Western United States... bummer. *
He's got Washington on the list. I just hope that's Washington state and not Washington DC. 🙂 Along with BC Canada. Maybe he's going to BC to see Kris and his geared Coker.
My guess is that he'll be in Washington for the Seattle Bicycle Expo show on February 19-20. But that's just a guess. The Vancouver Outdoor Adventure Show (a bicycle and sports expo) is also that same weekend.
No, we were talking about their "USA Tour". One of their stops is in Virginia and they are offering chances for demo rides. If they are coming anywhere near me, we can probably arrange a meeting of virginia riders for a test ride.
.....although, I wouldn't rule out buying one in the future.

Intellectual brilliance is no guarantee against being dead wrong.
I hope he is coming to Seattle. I bookedmarked the page so I can check as the date gets closer. If the Seattle unicycle mailing list finds out they should send out an email before it happens so everyone can try it out. I really want to buy one if they work well and don't cost too much.
