Once we are ready to do the first limited run, I would be happy to look into making these pulleys. I know you do pulleys, so I may ask you for some help lol.

I just know how to tell people how to make pulleys. That’s the part I’m good at.

Yes, we will definitely be doing black. Damon just wanted red, so we went with it.

It’s faster. Black is slower than red.

Lol, flash hubs will definitely get you a bit more speed.

We also discovered that plaid is actually the fastest, but its a pattern. There was some argument between red and plaid, but @b264 won somehow with the finishing move Spaceballs reference.

out of curiosity, has there been any consideration into making the hubs tubeless?

They’re two piece. They’d have to be one piece for that, right? omg the flathead screwdriver nightmare of 145mm tubeless tires.

rightttt nvm im an idiot lmao. They’d have to redesign it for that then. The tires would also need to have a specific fit and the inner lip of the rim would probably need a redesign too lol

screwdriver nightmare?

yeah so tubless tires need one piece rims and the way you get them on there is by prying with tools and rolling with your hands and its really hard unless you do it all the time and know tricks. Some people know tricks, like my friend Byron. dude just magically plops tubeless tires on unicycle hubs like its no big deal.

nothing hurts more than ripping your fingernails off getting a tire on a wheel :laughing:

i’ve never used tubeless wheels before, but are they so difficult to work with that tire levers don’t help much with installation?

In NYC, we have a guy Paulie Bear who changes Onewheel tires with his bare hands in less than 10 minutes. It’s quite the sight to behold. He could probably snap me in half like a KitKat.
