My Muni and Bedford flame stickers!

[joe]

Hey,

I have just finished sticking my muni together.

Spec is now:

XL Leather Air saddle,
Carbon Fibre seat base,
Double seat clamp,
Nimbus 28" frame, powdercoated mat black,
Magura HS33 brake,
Suze Hub,
150 Bicycle Euro cranks,
Metal DX style pedals (the Konas were crap)
Halo Combat rim, Gazzaloadi 2.6"x26" tyre,
'Bedford yellow flame' (http://tinyurl.com/xx85), and Unicycle.Com
stickers.

Personaly, I think it rocks! When I have seen people with Munis like
this, I have always thought 'WOW!'... but now I have one! :D

The flame stickers really finished it off! I was in two minds wether to
put them on or not, but I'm glad I did! :)

Pics are 'HERE' (http://www.unicyclist.com/gallery/muni_components)

Just thought I would share my Muni with you guys and galls!

Take care (while I dont... Muning :p)


Joe,

nice nice, I have the black flames on my yellow powder coated Bedford
frame. Always an eye catcher to the non-uni-riders.

Very nice! How much did the frame cost in total? Did you have Roger
spray it black or did you do it over the chrome? How much did it cost to
get the bosses welded on? And where did you find that Combat rim in
black with a braking surface?!

So many questions!!!

Cheers!:p

Got a local company to shot blast the chrome off it, and powdercoat it
mat black

Nice. I have always wanted to put together my own uni like that. How
much did the whole uni cost.

I was just wondering. Why the older frame? Did you just want it to be a
bit narrower (possible problems with fitting brakes on a wide frame)?

Wow, that is so tricked out. Very pretty, Joe. I would not feel guilty
about rinsing a ride like that off after I got mud on it. Nice color
scheme.

I dont know. I got it for Christmas 2 years ago now. It was a standard
UDC MaxTraction, but I've just updated mostly everything!

It is worth about £380

The older frame, because I could not affourd to upgrade it. It was not
broken, so I didnt replace it. I prefer it tbh!

The brakes needed cutting down, as the old frame i have is narrower than
the new ones. I have to shave a bit off the brake pad, and file the pad
housing down, as it was scraching my rim under flex.


Grrr.... I have mock GCSE's next week, so I am (ment to be) revising...
and I wont be able to go for a long ride on it until next weekend :(
