CONVERTIBLE HPV's - DAKOROMAN DRIVE SYSTEMS
Guys, Lots of folks have suggested that Dakoroman is just "trolling" the newsgroup - posting stuff to wind everyone up. I'd just like to note that the number 1 rule for dealing with that sort of behaviour is "do not feed the trolls". If somebody is trying to provoke pointless arguments, don't give them success by engaging with them, getting annoyed and giving them what they want. I'm not saying Dakoroman is a troll. But basically: if you do think he's just winding us up then the fastest way to stop him doing that is probably to just ignore these threads. That way the discussion will die down quicker, the threads will fall off the front page and things will get back to normal soon enough. If Dakoroman thinks he really has something then I hope he'll get in touch with unicycle.com and talk with them about manufacturing. Unicycle.uk.com has Roger Davies who has a lot of engineering experience and designs much of the Nimbus stuff, he could be worth talking to. Calling them up by telephone would be a better way to get an immediate response and to explain your position; being able to interact directly with them could help clarify any language problems that would be harder to deal with via e-mail. Somebody reminded me, in connection with this thread that Carl Sagan once said "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.". Talk of an easy means of mounting a unicycle, of retrofitting gearing and of gearing an UW are so impressive that they need impressive proof to back them up. Without that proof, people will eventually just going to get bored and ignore you. It would be a shame for a good idea to end that way, so if you have a design please do just persist in trying to talk to manufacturers directly. If they don't like your design then work to improve it or try something else. -- mark williamson Dave: Just a question. What use is a unicyle with no seat? And no pedals! Mark: To answer a question with a question: What use is a skateboard? Dave: Skateboards have wheels. Mark: My wheel has a wheel! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mark williamson's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11301 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/67170 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

CONVERTIBLE HPV's - DAKOROMAN DRIVE SYSTEMS
G’Day ! DAKOROMAN: I, Ioan “Dakoroman” OASA, from Sydney stand for every/ all the claims posted regarding DAKOROMAN DRIVE SYSTEM, another drive system for UW, all the applications I wrote about in my few threads/ posts. EPPUR SI MUOVE - GIORDANO BRUNO ………………………………...................................... ......... HARPER : First off, consider not using the backslashes in your text. It adds to the confusion. Make your sentences short, simple, and readable.” Dakoroman: there is not confusion at all, just lack or the will of understanding. ………………………………...................................... ............ HARPER : Second, how about a hint as to how this thing is supposed to work? Claims that unicycles can be retrofitted using this system in minutes is pretty far-fetched. Maybe some sketches or photos or even a verbal description would help here. If not, give up this approach” Dakoroman : I have explained a few times why I can not disclose everything at the moment. Yes, any type of unicycle can be retrofitted with DAKOROMAN DRIVE SYSTEM - Fast, Geared Unicycles/ The truth is not “pretty far-fetched” Photos, sketches, etc, are welcome, I agree, wait a moment. ………………………………...................................... ............ HARPER : Third, you claim that you are seeking manufacturing help. Have you even made one of these? Have you tested this drive system on any HPV at all? If so, can we see some evidence? If not, stop telling us how great it is because it isn't. I mean, it literally isn't...it does not exist. DAKOROMAN : I am in contact with a company from Sydney; if we make the deal, you will see everything/ any other company interested is welcome. ………………………………...................................... ............................ HARPER : Fourth, you claim that patent restrictions keep you from revealing anything about this drive system. All indications are that you expect people to jump at the opportunity to build this wonderful device for you (you are apparently unable to build it yourself) without knowing anything about it. Why would anyone do this? DAKOROMAN : see www.ipaustralia.gov.au I don’t expect anyone to do anything without understanding/ knowing/ analysing, judging, etc. That is why I proposed/ by emails to some Unicyclists to send them DAKOROMAN PROJECTS/ by mail, provided that they will sign a NDA. Is that right Greg HARPER ? John FOSS ? Qweld ? Mike PENTON ? UNICYCLE.COM and other people and companies ? / see my previous posts. I am indeed unable to manufacture DAKOROMAN PRODUCTS at high quality / market level/ mass production; I don’t have the machineries, I want to work with professionals. “Why would anyone do this ? Because new technologies/ products make big money. ………………………………...................................... ..... HARPER : Fifth, the idea of a geared-up ultimate wheel is absurd. Geared with reference to what, exactly? Back up fantastic and unbelievable claims like these or stop making them DAKOROMAN : any pioneer idea is absurd, geared unicycle was absurd, bicycle drive systems- multiple speeds was absurd, geared UW is not absurd, just retrofit DAKOROMAN DRIVE SYSTEM at any UW type/ IN MINUTES = 63 seconds !, thus I have to use the plural. The reference, as non- Geared Unicycles, is a “normal” unicycle, slow, with frame or not, ridden by a desperados: not a DAKOROMAN ULTIMAXXX - GEARED UNICYCLE. The only absurd thing is the use of absurd/ as a concept to demonstrate "imposibility"; the best way to win any argument is to be on the correct/ same side with the truth. Mr. Greg HARPER, you just created another myth/ the first one was that I solicit funds/ NEVER: although UW can be easily transformed in FAST DAKOROMAN GEARED UNICYCLES = UW, you totally ignore the existence of a new drive system I was describing in relation with UW, making a UW with D = 10…20 inches faster than Schlumpf Geared Unicycles D = 24/ 29 inches/ see www.unicycle.com. Qweld asked me about this new drive system, I have three, please read the title of the thread: CONVERTIBLE HPV’s - DAKOROMAN DRIVE SYSTEMS/ more than one. Can anybody explain me how is possible not to have any response/ comment/ not a single one, at my request: “Please, comment about this new thread and the ideas I want to debate, WHAT QUALITIES/ NOVELTIES HAVE THE NEW HPV's TO INCORPORATE, TO CHANGE THE PERCEPTION OF THE PUBLIC TOWARDS UNICYCLES/ HPV's?” I’ll tell you why: because you don’t even care to read the claims, regardless how wild they are, I already gave you a few new ideas/ concepts you should reflect about. ………………………………...................................... ................. HARPER : Sixth, and finally, you seem to insist on starting new threads using the same confusing grammatical constructs and discussing the same topic using the same approach. There is nothing fresh or new or convincing about your second or subsequent threads. Just tack your sales pitch onto an old thread. If not I will formally request that you be banned as a nuisance. Maybe a few have already done so. I had hoped you would back up your claims but it appears as if you will not. Come clean or go away. DAKOROMAN : it looks like UNICYCLIST.COM is run by influential people with their own agendas/ products/ methods/ vested interests. New comers are welcome if they sing the same songs/ don’t disturb the establishment, or risk being ridiculed/ humiliated, their new ideas annihilated. I am more than clean, soon all the claims will be demonstrated. Thank you, Ioan “Dakoroman” OASA, Sydney/ by the way, Sydney is not a country. P.S. - I would like to talk to Mr. Roger DAVIES from Unicycle.uk, I am going to send him the same offer, maybe he is curious at least, if any Unicyclist, reading about DAKOROMAN PROJECTS know him personally, my emails a , , mob : 0423 226 552. -- dakoroman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dakoroman's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16388 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/67170 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

New comers are welcome if they sing the same songs/ don’t disturb the establishment, or risk being ridiculed/ humiliated, their new ideas annihilated. Just wait a minute there! You are in no position to start making such accusations about our community... Look at things from our perspective. We've had numerous discussions about various systems used to give unicycle riders some sort of mechanical advantage. We talk about suspension, gearing, adjustable cranks, folding rims, many many different modifications. We have a community full of bright minds with great ideas. All you've been giving us are advertisements of some obscure product... in essence your threads are no different then those "spam threads" that offer us cell phones, Nike shoes, and other various consumer products. And, to keep this forum focused on unicycling discussion, we delete those threads and ban those users. The difference between our discussions and your threads is simple: all our discussions are give and take. We demonstrate our ideas and offer criticism of others' ideas. That's what makes them discussions. Your threads are very cryptic and don't encourage any discussion. Why then do you keep posting, just to tell us you can't talk about anything? -- maestro8 Those are my principles.

CONVERTIBLE HPV's - DAKOROMAN DRIVE SYSTEMS
I have contacted Mr. Dakoroman and offered to sign an NDA to see where this goes. If it goes somewhere, it's all good. If it goes nowhere, which seems most likely at the moment, we should ignore further posts for the time being. -- johnfoss John Foss Email: "jfoss" at "unicycling.com" -- www.unicycling.com ----------------------------------------------- Man with broken collar bone say: "Have you checked your shoelaces lately?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ johnfoss's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/832 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/67170 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Much to Mark's chagrin I will dole out a little more Purina Troll chow. dakoroman wrote: That is why I proposed/ by emails to some Unicyclists to send them DAKOROMAN PROJECTS/ by mail, provided that they will sign a NDA. Is that right Greg HARPER ? Call me Greg, Ioan. This is a very open community. Yes, you sent me a PM seeking manufacturing facilities and asking me to build this device for you. I told you I was not interested in manufacturing and marketing and told you to go ahead on your own. I did not expect you to scold me in a PM for not supporting your project or to subsequently spam RSU. dakoroman wrote: ... it looks like UNICYCLIST.COM is run by influential people with their own agendas/ products/ methods/ vested interests. New comers are welcome if they sing the same songs/ don’t disturb the establishment, or risk being ridiculed/ humiliated, their new ideas annihilated. Projects are discussed openly. Details are given, sketches are shared, corrections are made, prototypes are produced, photos are taken and shared, iterations are made, and tests are performed and reported. There isn't any secrecy involved. You don't see a whole lot of products being marketed by RSU members, either. Some, but not a lot. I suppose what you meant to say is that it is surprising that a newcomer can't come along and coerce an entire online community to support the manufacture of a product which doesn't seem to exist. -- harper -Greg Harper *jc is the only main man. there can be no other.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ harper's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/426 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/67170 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
