36" Ultimate Wheel - Training Wheel Not Required

[lexa3210]

i thought unicycling was hard!!!!!!

[ISN1P3DI]

imagine the looks he gets when he pops to the shops on that thing XD

[motabikeboy]

You should get some good forks and disc brakes for that thing

[WikkedTrixx]

What happens when you stop pedaling??

[Maxpow33r]

@pyromaneak47 I have a lecturer that did lol

[carverdon38]

I am amazed! Where did you get it?

[brianmackenzie]

@carverdon38 thanks! i made it from an old coker rim, some square tubing, and i welded the ends of some cranks onto the yellow frame...making it was fairly simple (i didn't do the welding, but it was an easy task)

[yetibiker08]

Where is the air bag for collisions?

[The1337nut]

BP= boner productions. cmon it was cumming to them right?



[logan8er10]

what the...



[UnipsychoVT]

I love ultimate wheels they look like drunken unicycles

[Dudeonline123]

anyone know if u can wheel walk on it lol

[swtscr7]

I don't even want another unicycle anymore... i was like 0_o after seeing this

[GShoe32]

He must have thighs of iron!

[LikeableRodent]

@GShoe32

First thing that popped into my mind too. Thouse must be some manly thighs.

[MrMcGraveProDuctions]

I tried this once with one of the smaller ones and I sprained my ankle -.-

[SebAshwell]

This is my next step I can Muni I can just about do Impossible/BC wheel I am now past the leg protection stage so when I can get the money I will get one of these.

[Ricmcspeedy987]

that would fucking destroy your legs

[knottytrevor]

All this time I've been using a bike like a FUCKING REASONABLE PERSON.

[INTHISGUYSAID]

sucks if his legs get tired ahah

[Medards]

riding ultimate wheel comparing to unicyle, is as much harder as riding unicycle vs bicycle. But at least its pain less for balls.

[Gunner193]

Is the UW much harder than a unicycle, skill-wise?

[POOLSCLOSED4AIDS]

leg workout must be awesome

[LINYJumper]

Takes the skill of uni-cycling to a whole new level.

[AlexUralEkb]

долбоебы... хуле...

сделайте колеса квадратными...

[kartovo]

good skills!

[computerdl]

is this like riding a 36" unicycle standing up?

[fdkahfliafh]

@computerdl pretty sure it's more like riding a 36" with the seat dragging on the ground.

[GrandmasMan]

3 people missed the like button

[shummyshum]

wow... that must require incredibly strong legs

[Norcalflat]

Damn, I was impressed when I first saw a vid of a guy off roading on a unicycle, this is just insane!

[gumby1008]

made it look so easy

[fetymann]

wow... I finally realized there's no seat or anything after 36 seconds into it!! talk about a quad workout.

[waaalrus]

Totally awesome! The only thing that could make this more impressive was if it was done in the driving rain. You rock!

[dandylioneaterlovesu]

i got one of these for christmas :P i can allready ride a unicycle, but i'm finding this harder lol

[ThePumpkinSmashers]

i just got a unicycle. soon as i can ride that im gona try ultimate. ill have it by next week! even know i just got the unicyle today!

[R3D3X777]

soo.... its been a week, can you ride?

[ThePumpkinSmashers]

sorta, i can ride the length of the couch...

[mrcuddles4]

right....good luck with that

[AQUESETEOLVIDA]

is so ufcking scary shit, I trie with a regular monocicle, this is for to much skills... youre pro..

[cocopops149]

monocycle? do you mean unicycle or monowheel?

[CircusKidz]

i wonder how much harder that is than a regular unicycler

[erikinagmail]

I've got two unicycles, and I've tried taking off the fork / seat and using it as an ultimate wheel. But even after an hour of trying, I still couldn't go anywhere. So a fair bit harder I'd say

[Narutoguy89]

lol i wonder how long it took them to learn how to ride it since there is no seat to sit on. their backs must be acheing

[colin340]

some time there are called the imposable wheels

[brianmackenzie]

an impossible has pegs that hang freely on the axle...ultimate wheels are different than impossible wheels

[colin340]

yeah ur right my b

[absoprob]

Great stuff!

[gounicycle]

wow man, you are crazy! nice skills

[Carlsarv]

OMG soo simple! I love that, definetly building one right now.

[madhattershat]

THAT IS INSANE :0 coming from a unicycle rider :)

[logalogalog]

Ditto. I've ridden for a long time, but an ultimate wheel is way out of my league.

[PJJMDCC]

Just got one yesterday... Its incredibly hard... I should've got one of those leg protectors. I only need to get used to it lol. This is way harder than unicycle and I love it :3

[iliveforthis13EN]

top speed?

[cramsdragons]

Very impressive, lost of leg strength must be required.

[oingashpoop]

wow, that must be a bitch to ride.

[jdubyuhross]

Hey Brian, I'm a fellow ultimate wheeler and I love your video! I'm currently on a Nimbus 24", but I'd love to ride something like yours. Is it custom made or did you purchase it or what?

[brianmackenzie]

hey thanks, the 36" is by far the most fun i've had on a UW. These was designed by myself, and constructed by my friend. there have been a couple built since then, including the one made by adam (the coker rider in the unicycling in manhattan clip)

he manufactures aluminum UW36's at his place in Long Island. (the steel one i am riding in the video is HEAVY!) check out adam's design at

justonewheel

dot

com

[jdubyuhross]

I think the website store is down until April 1st, but thanks. I'll be sure to check that out. I live in North Carolina, if I bought one do you think he'd ship it to me?

[brianmackenzie]

that would be a custom fabrication to make, it won't be listed in his store when that is up anyways, you would have to call or email him to find out specifics. adam's a great guy and very accommodating, he could ship it anywhere

[jdubyuhross]

oh, okay. just out of curiosity do you know of a price range the custom fabrication would be? Any sort of general area would be great.

[brianmackenzie]

i have no idea, you would have to talk to adam

[jdubyuhross]

okay, thanks

[Gnonim]

awesome Brian. Love watching that vid. Wish i could clear all that on my muni, still learning :)

[iliveforthis13EN]

can you go almost as fast as a 36" regular unicycle like a coker?

[brianmackenzie]

not a chance, way too much energy is spent keeping myself upright, and the tire centered, and even still the tire hits my legs quite often

[iownthehate]

is that just a wheel or does is have pedals i cant tell

[brianmackenzie]

it has to have pedals or there would be no place for my feet :)

check out 1:11 for a good view of this wacky contraption

[brianmackenzie]

cool! i just noticed if you link to a timecode it links right to that part of the video

[iownthehate]

oh i see it now

[mineralfellow]

This is sick!

How far makes a long ride for you?

[brianmackenzie]

the longest i rode for was for about 2.5 km's, and that was INCREDIBLY tiring. what's more tiring than the quads when riding this is the hot rubber tire (just taller than my leg armour) hitting and rubbing against the skin on my inner thigh, going down a hill or something you have nothing to do but let it rub into your skin until you have the wheel back under control. i suppose i could wear pants, but that would ruin them

[brianmackenzie]

holy crap, i just discoved if you give a timecode, it links right to that part in the video. awesome!

[iamaflyingsquirrel]

theres no seat!!!!!

[Theobtusellama]

literally made my jaw drop. That was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen

[woofboy111]

I need to try this!

[ginnydc]

As a unicyclist... this is the most impressive thing I've ever seen.

[brianmackenzie]

thanks!

[beccabea]

My God, this man must have legs of steel.

[FuNkySpH]

waffle wheel!

that's the kind of sport everyone should be amazed about

[Wargumm1i]

This not only takes incredible balance but really strong legs to pull off.

[unclvinny]

This is that rare combination between dorky and jocky. Way to go, y'all!

[CrowMonster1986]

Imposible! Now they should have this on the olympics XD

[BaranCzech]

amazing and crazy! :D

[magicbox667]

ive tried this, its just too hard lol

[magnuschubb]

i can ride a 26 Ultimate wheel and a coker but that is crazy mate

well done!

[tabler1010]

ive been unicycling for 3 and 1/2 months and i cant do that some of that stuff on a normal uni

[456run]

So Good, I'm speechless, We're Not Worthy, not worthy....

PS who stole the seat? and then the dirty Bastards stole the forks too !!!!!!

What! Then they stole the axle too!!!

[LiveLoveUnicycle]

Awesome. I rode that once. Maybe in 2006. Idk. It's amazing though :D

[aibohponex]

Nice!!

[magicbox667]

holy shit ur awesome at the ultimate wheel :D, u can even ride down stairs on it!!!

[martin1wheel]

wow you make that look easy,Fantastic skills

[DeltaWound]

Whoa. Wiggy.

[dovledovle]

I will buy the DVD, because I like hardcore unicycling.

Btw nice video Brian !!!

[brianmackenzie]

thanks man, i appreciate it!

[dipship123]

dude takes alot of balance just to keep it straight. I have a 24 inch UW and kind of hurts

[philey92]

i would be affraid of slipping off the pedals... might hurt :D

[brianmackenzie]

what hurts way more than bagging the boys on the tire when i slip is the agony of a hot, dry, rubber tire sliding against the skin of my upper inner thighs when the wheel doesn't stay straight

[skottzilla]

You are AMAZING. I have just got a ultimate wheel for my birthday.

[brianmackenzie]

thanks!

[betterforks]

I'm blown away thats great.what is the apparent crank length and how much does it weigh

[brianmackenzie]

the crank length is 165mm, and i find this to be ideal for this wheel size.

this is all steel, so it's quite heavy, but i really don't know how much it weighs

[cuniciclore92]

wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kain781]

hey, I'm trying to make a UW. Any suggestions?

[gaspoweredredneck]

I tried this with my old unicycle, I took the fork off of it, and just left the wheel. It was like having to learn all over again.

[brianmackenzie]

that's actually quite a bit harder than riding a 'normal' UW...the way you did it, there is a lot of distance between the pedals and the rim...with the pedals on the rim (like mine) the wheel doesn't wobble as much, as the legs are going more directly up and down

[andrestarz]

Nice riding! Your pretty good on the UW. I would like to try some offroading on the 36" it looks pretty fun! I know what you mean about the UW being tiring, I rode one in a parade once. I couldn't walk for the rest of the day haha.

[duverfred]

is it harder to ultimate wheel on a bigger or smaller wheel, whichever it is you look very comfortable on that one

[guitboxheroes]

how fast were you going behind the car?

[brianmackenzie]

i think that was probably 15-20km/h or so

[FischFresse016]

now i know what to do with my ultimate :D

great video!

[yams801]

idk how fast that is but in unicycleing . . . i know its not that bur bear with it you dont go very fast the fastes i went is like 6 mph idk noteven

[adamustein]

good shit bro:)

well imprest!

u gunna try n make an even BIGGER one?!

[brianmackenzie]

i tired a bigger one, it was like 45" i think. it was kinda neat, but needed a wheelchair type rubber stip for a wheel, which took all the fun out of it...the air filled tire of this one is awesome

[norwegianunicycle]

ok thanks :P into a whall?

[norwegianunicycle]

hw long time does it take to learn riding a ultimate???? nice video!

[brianmackenzie]

thanks!

the bigger the wheel, the easier it is to get the hang of...i played with a 20", did all my learning on a 24", and designed the 36" when I was filming my movie. The 36" was for sure the easiest to ride.

I think i learned the 24" after 3 or 4 hours...it's just like unicycling...if you practice, you will figure it out

[joejumps4fun]

thats sick man!!! it's got to be tiring not having a seat, is it not? sick riding!

[brianmackenzie]

you would not believe how tiring it is!!!

[zacwee55]

your a beast.

[hsd1992]

hehe:D cool! but where is the seat?

[VGregoire]

I realy love 36" unicycle, but without a saddle... That's amazing!!! I would like to try this ultimate wheel, but I'm not sure that I will borrow it againt my 36" unicycle... Great video, that's amazing!

[brianmackenzie]

if I go to OUI 08 I will bring it with me

[VGregoire]

That's a great idea. I'm never have interest for ultimate wheel, but this one... I'm really curious about it. I'll do my best to go to OUI this summer... I have to try it...

[brianmackenzie]

i don't find the smaller ultimate wheels any fun

[c9ollie]

intense.

impossible wheels are crazy hard to ride.

[lcortier]

except this is not an impossible wheel but an ultimate wheel. Both are very hard to ride anyway, though ;)

[R4ndomCrap]

the balance and endurance required to do that is incredible. Liked that flip up launch.

[unidudedx]

thats crazy.

[BadIdeas101]

awesome! never seen someone doing tricks on one of these! i tried those, but they're way harder than a regular uni!

[Cowinacan]

That is intense Brian!
