Hi Bruce, I came up with the design and test piloted it, the club welder
stuck it all together. The design was only, I started off thinking
uneven cross pieces yielded a choice of 170mm and 160mm would be cool,
but I didn't want to always look at unused pedal holders, so they are
all at 165mm from the centre.
I knew with the large, aging rim that I would want more points of
contact, this turned out great, there is no flex. And the tubes are
slightly smaller (and lighter) than the ones used in the red UW24.

Awesome, looking forward to seeing it ridden. Nice pedals too. They
are my favourite pedals (they are Oddyssey Twisted Pro's aren't they?)
in terms of shape. If only they were stronger.

I love them too, they came with my first muni almost 3 years ago, and
are still good. I tapped some metal screws up from underneath to
provide more grip, but they have such a huge platform, I find them to be
ideal Coker pedals. I can't recall whether I have regreased these or
not.

I'm guessing that it's the rim from the Coker in this video: A

It is the same rim, but I have done lots of riding on it since. The day
finally came though, and my Airfoil rim is on it's way.

I think I got this one! Has anyone seen a larger UW yet?
So, I have yet to take video, I will today after work. It's rideable,
and in my 20 mins or so of test piloting it, it seems to yield all the
advantages over the UW24 just like their unicycle counterparts.
Once you get up to speed, you start UW'ing pretty damn quick! I think
this is the machine that I will use in parades, etc...
