where can i cop these?
|
hm, you might have some trouble getting a bunch of asian dudes. i would check out any area where orientals tend to congregate, for instance china town or the nearest asian food establishment.
as for the wheels, they are sick. but i don't know if i'd be down with the extra fourty or fifty pounds those things must add. |
yeah i meant the wheels, obvi. i don't care if they weighed 1000000 lbs
|
i would say your first bet would be saigon or hanoi from the looks of that picture.

I know the guy who owns those rims! He's a buddy of a friend's cousin who was married to his best friend's wife's sister who was abandoned at birth and then found. The rims were hand made from a wrought iron fence that was being thrown out by a neighbour. It had these flowers that were 700c in size and just what he needed. A little plasma cutting and retrofitting and blammo... he had flower power rims! I don't think he made any more though. I could try and ask him if you want.
Oh wait, no, I'm sorry! The guy I'm talking about had pink flower rims. Sorry. I failed to notice the yellow rims on the yellow bike. I have no idea where those ones came from. Again, my apologies. |
these guys seem to say, "singapore."

****, where can I cop that drum brake?

Saw a lot of wheels of similar build, but nowhere near as elaborate, in Japan. They are indeed plastic. I priced a pair of them in Kyoto with a coaster brake setup for around 150 USD.
Edit: seen in Tokyo http://static.flickr.com/47/183090261_aa045f4945_o.jpg |

Definately NOT Singapore. It's way to hot and humid there for the way these guys are dressed.

Isn't Kogswell making some conversion cogs? |
Respect to whoever rides this thing:
http://www.unicycling.com/garage/pix/KANGAROO.JPG Kangaroo and eccentric. Why not take the seat off to make it an ultimate wheel as well? |
Yeah if any of you know where to get a road sized plastic wheel I would really like one. I have done some looking but everything I find that is solid spoke is eather to small and plastic or the right size and carbon fiber or something to that effect.
