  1. I've really wanted to get a BC wheel lately (probably for christmas or
    earlier) and i can't figure out which one to get (preferably less than
    $150).

    What is the difference between the 'Nimbus'
    (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=828) and the 'Yuni'
    (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=725) from UDC? Both of
    these come with the short plates, and i have heard that people usually
    like long plates better. Is it possible to get one of these with long
    plates? Or should i get the BC wheel or BC wheel deluxe from bedford?
    (I want a BC with the long plates i think).

  2. bedford is probably the way to go if you're looking for BC's... UDC is
    great and all, but they just don't have the selection for BCs that
    bedford does.

    For bedford, you can get the whole wheel, or just the plates and find
    your own wheel with a 14mm axle.

    i think 'this one'
    (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44494) has the most
    bang for your buck.

    The UDC nimbus bc seems like it is a good deal at $109 but I don't know
    how strong the hub/platforms are. I think the reasen the Yuni is more
    is it has a sun rim, Gb4 plates, and hookworm tire while the Nimbus has
    "nimbus rim and plates". I think the price difference is just in the
    company names...but I dont know.
