I hooked the GoPro camera up to the KH24 GUni today to grab some quick footage showing the easy shifting of the Schlumpf geared hub off road, how the Five Ten Karver shoes assist gear changing, and how much fun blasting along on the KH24 GUni in 1:1.5 is! Better video to follow… but hey, hope you...

Now that I stop and think about it I’m probably fairly superstitious, or maybe I just don’t like change all that much. Whatever the reason, I like to unicycle wearing the same pair of socks. Not just any socks, but my favourite socks – Salsa’s ‘Ride and Smile’ Muerto’s. You’ve...

My Five Ten Sam Hills are awesome shoes, but for whatever reason my Schlumpf hub gear shifting technique has always been ankle bone based. I’m changing gears a lot more on the 24″ GUni, like a two speed dune buggy, and in the off road environment it’s often with minimal advance warning...

I headed out today to explore a network of motocross bush tracks running off Swaby Lane. Apart from a brief look I’ve ignored these trails in the past as they’re too far from home to ride out to on a single speed 24, and too crazy to enjoy on larger wheels. The 24 GUni is perfect for this...

I’ve been super happy with the tubeless conversion on my KH36′er so decided to go tubeless on the KH24 GUni. The drilled rim on the KH24 weights 655 grams. The 24×3 tube ~425 grams. Add in the Duro 3.0″ tire and it’s not surprising the KH24 is heavy even compared to the larger...

A recent thread on the unicyclist.com forums regarding how best to lubricate Schlumpf hubs made me think that perhaps using a mixture of bacon grease and bicycle grease isn’t a great idea. Who would’ve guessed huh? The lube recommendations on the Schlumpf site are: Please use the Schlumpf...

After an unexpected GUni crash on Reed Track the other day due to a stick getting picked up by the Duro tread and jammed against the short Magura crossover line, I had a dig around in the spare parts box and found an old length of line – a bit out of shape but good enough and most importantly longer. Bleeding...

I hadn’t dragged my kids out for a night uni photo session for ages. The 24 GUni needed a clean so we headed into the nearby forest for a night uni washing session, MUni style! Off road unicycling at night is a hoot – ‘other worldly’ is probably the best description I can think...

I had a bit of a curse the other day while bleeding the Magura brakes on my 24. It’s not a difficult job but without an extra pair of hands it can be a fiddly process. I had another curse or two today, when it was my turn to bleed! Scooting down Reed Track in high gear on the 24″ GUni the...

After many years of using standard cycling knicks, this year I decided to give bib knicks a go. They have proven to be GREAT for unicycling! Bib knicks offer greater comfort and support vs regular knicks. There is no constricting elastic around the waist. The shoulder straps prevent the knicks from sliding...
