[secutorclaudius]

does it come with shimano components?

[RangersAirsoft]

Where can i buy a crappy one (not an origanl) for under 190$ i just want to ride it around town with my top had and pocket watch hanging out

[Defender78]

love the top hat.. how do you stop one of those things?

[flyleaf2424]

Now i'd like to see you get off.

[xsirgex]

How did you make this and what did you need?

[Kyrowire]

0.23 is the funniest part, you can almost see a nut pop out then the guy laughs like elmo. classic.

[NamesROverated]

where did you get spokes that long?

[ringnutt]

made it! its just steel and a tractor belt for a tyre

[ringnutt]

we made this one but u can buy an original for about £2000 if you are lucky. more fun to make it tho.

[DontReadThisUsername]

Where can i get one?!!!!

[ringnutt]

@DontReadThisUsername we made this one but i believe u can buy an original for a couple of grand.

[DontReadThisUsername]

@ringnutt Where'd you get the front wheel?

[ringnutt]

@DontReadThisUsername we made it its just steel and a tractor belt for the tyre.

[midknightbluez]

Wanna impress me...? Pop a wheelie.

[Lex5151]

I noticed laughing idiots

[TimpBizkit]

What do you do at a traffic light?

[cgladam93]

imagine doin a bars or pullin a whip on that, i would be stoked lmao

[121davo121]

fucking witch on a bike. get a bmc nooobs! lol!

[laallaal75]

it's physically impossible, thw center of gravity and the fact that the pedal comes from the FRONT wheel makes it so

[chookter1]

Women are so sexy on bikes.

[GearRocks]

YOU PIG!!

[chookter1]

Yep, makes me think of that lovely lickable underside being pressed against some pvc. Yummy!

[IC2720]

LOL

[mattsaer1]

its a life long dream of mine to wheelie a pf.please try one and put it up.

[apauln]

there would be no way that thing can do a wheelie... all the weight is on the front wheel and the drive wheel is in the front...

but i can see that thing doing an "endo" lol

[iAmVincent2]

I think he meant a wheelie on the front wheel.

[patternsandstatic]

yes, unicycles actually come from penny fathings, and it's very possible to do a wheelie on the front wheel

[clottoyup]

lol, how you sposed to stop?

[ringnutt]

you just kind of hop off really! it takes a bit of practice.

[GearRocks]

Do you jump,tuck, and roll?

[huntingfreak901]

@GearRocks close about the jumping part the theory was to put your feet over the handle bars on an down hill and if you loose control and you flip you will land on your feet unfortunetly this was not the case and this was why many penny farthing riders got hurt

[patternsandstatic]

you simply slow down the pedeling, since there is no freewheel

[januspiet]

I found it hard to keep my eyes off that big front wheel.

Cool.

[ringnutt]

that's me on the pf! it was all just for fun. we went to bug jam on a tandem and had to out do ourselves this year so built a penny farthing! and i made us all some cool costumes!

[Edfueler]

Thats a great get-up, she's got on. Did this lass have a good act on that highwheeler?
