  1. 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 ?

    A friend is excited to buy.

    I was hoping that there would be some response. But I guess that
    no-one on these forums has laid their hands on one yet.

    still had not finished things and they just needed time... and this was
    in short supply.

  6. If it means anything, I've tried a hookworm (26"😉 blueshifted uni. You
    don't want to go smaller than 26" for getting anywhere.

  8. I was just looking at the Schlumpf Website and it says he will be
    touring the US in February. If he's coming to your town you can do a
    test ride.

  10. http://www.schlumpf.ch/uni_engl.htm

    From the top toolbar, click on "Unicycle" then "News" for the US tour
    schedule. It sounds ambitious. And too much fun!

    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.

  16. I just emailed on behalf of the commonwealth of Virginia. This might be
    worth another meeting of virginia riders.

  18. You mean you're actually going to buy one?

    Price 1300 dollars not including taxes, VAT etc.

    That is one expensive toy!

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
