Those little dust cap rings are the bit that makes the cranks
self-extracting. They will fall off on their own if they are not
threaded all the way into the crank. To tighten them up you'll need a
'pin spanner' (http://www.parktool.com/tools/SPA_2.shtml). They need to
be threaded on tightly to keep them from falling off. If you don't want
to buy a special purpose pin spanner you can make your own from a wire
coat hanger.

You can get replacement self-extracting dust caps at a bike shop. I
don't know if the dust caps on your cranks are a special size or not.
Your friendly LBS would know.

looks like it'd be pretty heavy to me.... didn't Fuego, or someone,
design a seat reinforcer that was fairly light?

tubes and very light.

I don't feel liek goign through a large arguement on this, but I would
like to defend unipsycho a bit. First, yes, I see that it's a bit of a
joke, but I think you are still a bit annoyed by it. Here's my thoughts
on custom fabrications:

Working with metal in ANY way is slow, tiring, expensive, and difficult
work. Yes, he should've quoted you the cirrect price initially, but
those making custom parts for unicycles are not doing it for a profit
and are often accepting some cost or barely breaking even. Just
something to remember when someone gives you a price on a part.
