kris why kh24 crown is so high?

[jorkee]

Kris why on the taiwan kh frame 2004 the crown is so high over the tyre?
In the canadain version the cron is closer to the tyre...

Perhaps he's going to release a 4' MUNi tyre? That would be really
cool!

They're called tractor tyres! ;-)
It's probably for mud clearance isn't it? I haven't got one, but I guess
that's what it's for!

yes I know that :) but like I sad canadian version is much more lower
and his red unicycle (I think that this one he likes the most) has crown
lower too...

o yes I wanted to ask one more question....
why not build the frame like that red unicycle that kris rides on it
with the flat cron but from tubing? I like that one very much. and the
sites the frame are 45 degree. very good idea...

best regards :) to all society

I haven't seen any photos yet or anything but I personally like having a
high crown for gliding and one footed stuff. I don't seem to be
flexible enough to stop my foot from hitting the tyre on most munis when
gliding. So if it's what I'm imagining, then I'm happy. :)

My name isn't Kris, but I am guessing that there needs to be some
differences between the pro and the regular model, so that could be one
of them. You pay a whole heap more for the pro-model so they have to
keep some improvements to lash out on the big spenders.

I'm 6.1 and I have a hard time getting my foot onto the crown for 1 foot
riding. Its still an awesome frame though.

You shouldn't have any problems getting your foot up on the crown for
one foot riding. I can get my foot up on the crown of a Coker.

:)

It takes some practice to get your foot up on the frame of a 24" muni
but once you get used to it, it becomes much more natural.
