    People who throw stones at you are quietly saying, "shoot me," they're
    just not being verbally expressive enough.

  6. Here's my uni, even though zack says it's heavy! Haha, it weighs 12lbs,
    I think. i weighed it on a regular scale, and not digital. But I
    weighed myself, and I've been 139lbs on any scale for the last few
    years.

    I think I cracked my seat's stiffener plate. I have big hands. I use
    the regular Xbox controllers and my hands almost fit perfect. But,
    there's too much foam for seat out. I need to also ditch the
    rail-post-bracket. I'm never going to run brakes. The seat also has
    way too much flex.

    My frame is 2.24lbs. I accidentally told zack 2.44lbs.

    So maybe in a year, I'll go to an arrow rim, and a lighter frame. For
    now, I'm going to order a wallis base, and run a kinport front handle,
    and probably miyata for the rest. That's right! No air for me.

    Later,
    Evan

  7. Here's mine. I bought it from Catboy on this forum last year and I've
    added nothing but some scratches since I got it. Gotta love the
    coordinated pedal/seat combo.

  15. My Coker Deluxe is just like the one in the picture at Unicycle.com.
    That's because I'm pretty sure it *is* the one in the picture. I've
    added a Wyganowski handlebar setup and a water bottle cage, but that's
    basically what it looks like, only dirtier.

    as i had a 20" rim before, i got new spokes when i took it in for a
    wheel build. but it is probably best to get new spokes anyway.

    for a complete wheel build and spokes it was £30 and i think that £15 of
    that was for the the spokes

  19. With a KH 2005 saddle,
    Modified seatpost (cut to save weight and better suit my
    length-of-legs)
    VP components VP-53 pedals (Not standard)
    Maxxis Creepy Crawler 20 x 2,5" (the best tire I have tried yet)
    QU-AX 19" rim with 48 spokes

    That all totals up to 6,4 kg according to QU-AX and 6,3 according to my
    weight.

    That should be it, yep. When I ride, I also use a Specialized Deuce
    helmet and Fox Sidewinder gloves, both are 2005 versions and I got both
    for my birthday, helmet from parents and gloves from grandparents.
