Hi Brian,
I'm not sure what your cooking up but it sounds interesting to say the
least.
You've been on these forums long enough to realsie that when you ask
someone what their ideal setup is for something they are going to rely
on
conjecture and opinion that is not always based on real experience. And
even if it is, their opinion will be framed by the type of muni they
ride, how
often they ride it. Some peoples version of hardcore is anothers XC
etc.
I'm just wondering how hard it would be- taking this into account- to
let
people dictate exactly waht they want and have it put together custom.
I
know this might be more expensive but getting everyone to agree on what
a
DH unicycle should be is not an easy task.
I ride a relatively short muni course every day or two that includes a
lot
of really steep climbing (170's are a must for my ride), which then
turns
into a loose rock, multiple drops, very steep decent. I would like to
experiment with a LM/ gazz or LM/ duro combo but don't have the funds
atm. I also think that making magura's an easy addition to any serious
muni you put out is a good idea.
I still ride profiles- but i think for the new generation of riders
that
have been bought up on ISIS it seems overtly expensive and a little
outdated. I don't mind them- the lifetime warranty on cranks has saved
me
a lot of money.
I think giving people options is going to make your venture the most
sucessfull. I think if you asked the same question, but of individual
components you could be given a pretty good inventory of things needed
to
make a variety of awesome DH unicycles to suit everyone.
Best of luck,
mark
