The bikes are made by/for a sub-division of car tire manufacturer Coker, which also sells the tires, rims and tubes. I have no idea why they started making them, but the bikes do look cool. Unicyclers like using the big wheels on their touring rigs because that is the only way for them to get (what we would call) a higher gear ratio. Also, unicyclers are...different.
