Riding a unicycle part 45: Building and riding a 29“ geared unicycle
Building a geared unicycle: Schlumpf hub, Kris Holm 29“ frame, Nimbus Dominator2 29“ rim
I’ve finished my geared unicycle project. I have moved my Schlumpf hub from a 26“ to a 29“. I used the geared 26“ for a year in 2012 before a 24“ Oracle took it’s place.
I took the new 29 guni out for a test ride. It was very slippery, but because of the studded tyre I didn’t notice it before I fell off the first time. After that I was a bit cautious, but after a while I got quite comfortable in high gear. I didn’t have the nerve to go anywhere near as fast as I could have. I was thinking that a geared hub is best suited for commuters on flat terrain (who is not in a hurry) or for crazy people. I can see now how it makes sence to put a Schlumpf hub in a 36“ wheel if you’re in the first group (I’m not going to do it). Shifting with 137 cranks is much easier than with the 150 cranks I had before. Down shifting is harder than up shifting, but I got it after a little practice.
