Inspired by Brian Mackenzie, his 36" UW and his amazing riding on the
36UW in TWNR, I decided I needed one myself.
It has been a bit of a process.
A radial steel rim, 25 mm cromo tubing, pedal bossed that I turned up
at work.
It took some hacksawing and filing to get the tubing right. I paid a
local welding teacher a slab of beer to TIG weld the thing together and
sweet talked my local bike shop to use their taps for the pedal
threads.
I decided on orange for no other reason that I like the color on
unicycles and did not want to copy the yellow original. When I was
talking things over with the powder coater, I also pulled my KH Muni
apart and got it done in orange at the same time.
The finished product. Radial tyre, Snafu pedals, orange and it looks
great but cost more than I would have expected.
Now...... there is only 1 slight problem....I don't know if I will be
able to ride it but sure will try.
