Im sure if this product became commercial, even with a nimbus wheelset,
many people would be willing to pay the price for it.

the hub was not kh Ti, but if it were you could put stronger cranks on
and still be below 4k though.

I lifted it, it's stupidly light.

The wide frame looks also perfect for freestyle. I wonder if they will
offer such a version (not sure if the tire clearance of the
trial-version would be compatible with a freestyle wheelset). I would
definitely be willing to spend several hundred Euros on such a frame
(cause all other freestyle frames now in the market suck in some way).

Hey Dave, I'm pretty sure it was the KH hub in there, it was definitely
a Ti hub and I doubt there would be a point in having another different
Ti hub manufactured when the KH is already being produced.

Also originally he had the Nimbus cranks on it, then I believe someone
bent one of them so he put the Tensiles on it.

The thing was pretty nice but the crown was a bit ugly.

The bearing caps were amazing though, fully machined, The only bearing
caps I have seen that are nicer are the KH ones.

when you compare this unicycle to another its just stupidly light.

the set up at unicon was a kh wheelset with a prototype kh ti hub so
the hub diddent say it was a kh.

then marco changed the qu-ax freestyle isis cranks with his tensiles
because hi broke his own unicycle and roger let him borrow the nimbus
ti

I think Roger said that was for the frame only. I would probably pay
that for a 36" frame, but probably not for a 20"
