Angled Mount and Jump Mount onto 36" Nightfox Liz Wilson... Muni Rider Sponsored by Unicycle.com and Nimbus Unicycles Dog...Sashy Motto.......Location.....my woods
Okay I see it now, and I'm using it to mount my Nimbus 26 (I'm 5'7") with the seat 41 inches off the ground. Coming up out of that little side tilt makes a big difference in stabilizing the wheel on the ground. The direction of movement is nearly perpendicular to the wheel's plane and that gives time to stick the landing on the pedal and get rolling forward under control. It's really helpful, and I keep imagining this and your angled mount video. Thank you Liz!
This is a fantastic and extremely durable ruclips.net/user/postUgkx4e2fa6x27dF7shCelntq0ZIKt4N0jELI unicycle. This was my first unicycle and I have really thrashed this thing for the past eight months or so and it has stood up very well. The only thing that has broken are the plastic pedals, they take a beating as you learn to ride, but an upgrade to metal pedals is fairly inexpensive and pretty necessary for most any unicycle. I have since acquired a 36 inch Coker for commuting and having ridden that I realized that the saddle on this unicycle can be a bit uncomfortable after a few hours riding, but still it is a great unicycle to start out on.
@Liz wilson, nice video! I just got the new nightfox model that has the brake mount already built into the lower leg. Which make/model of disc brake do you have on your setup/recommend? Also what type pressures do you prefer for road/touring vs muni?
Did you custom build your nightfox? Because I can't figure out how to get it with the green rim. And if you did custom build it, which saddle did you get for the nightfox frame? (Because I can't tell if it uses a standard saddle 4 bolt mount)
Yes, it was custom built. It's a Nightfox frame and seat and the rest of it is oracle stock, the rim, inboard disk brake, it's an Oregon hub to allow the inboard brake.
UDC built it all for me. I believe the nimbus green/blk seat comes with Nightfox frame and they don't have individual ones for sale. Just call and ask. They are super helpful :)
Brakes no brakes? Looks like there is a lot of momentum going on there- can you get away with not having brakes on light trails or did you find you used them a lot? Have brakes on my KH 26er and never use them outside of severe decents.
+Vaughn Tiedeman Lots of folks use a 36 w/o brakes. Its what you are used too. I learned to ride with a brake from the start and found that a brake saves my leg strength for hill climbs and longer distance. I always use a brake on downhill whether its Muni or paved as it keeps me in control and my mind doesn't freak out about being launched off ;)
Hello I want buy 36" unicycle. but I dont know whether I will fast enough like my parents on bike. what are your experiences with 36uni vs bike? Thank you for anawer :)

It's magic. Liz comes from box. ^^......Nice
Interesting, impressive, useful. Like the riding machine a unicycle can be
Absolutely glad to see you demonstrate the 36". Looking forward to seeing more uni vids.
Thank you c33rok33
Made a new one with UniGeezer this week! Totally fun.
I turned three friends of mine onto unicycles this weekend... They were so impressed with your video.
That's so great you got your friends interested in unicycling:)
Thanks, I'm excited to make more uni videos soon.
美女，你非常棒！我来自中国。这里玩36寸独轮车的爱好者非常多，欢迎你！

this is Nimbus Nightfox unboxing Liz Wilson
Nice video. Got a nightfox myself
Hey, that's the unicycle, Ed Pratt is using. He cycles around the WORLD on a customized nightfox! Make sure to check him out on RUclips.
I think he used the Nimbus Oracle, but yes his videos are awesome!
He is using the Nimbus Oracle 36"
It seems like the 36 would be very difficult on the trails because of the higher center of gravity! Good jerb!
+Frank Manti Just tell your brain its all the same and you'll have no issues.
Cool
+Pete Breslin Thanks, its alot of fun
I'm in VA Becah VA, I wish I could ride like that
Wish You luck!
Thanks Yurly :)
thats epic , you should do some jumps or something next time
+APCWORLDSUXAZ absolutely need some jumps in there!

Legal.
@Liz wilson, nice video! I just got the new nightfox model that has the brake mount already built into the lower leg. Which make/model of disc brake do you have on your setup/recommend? Also what type pressures do you prefer for road/touring vs muni?
Road riding I like 50-55 psi
*comes out of box*
HEY GUYS, ITS SCARSE HERE
That is gigantic haha
+Frank Manti The 36, does get the most attention when its ridden!
I WISH I HAVE ONE
Thanks for sharing the video, work on better audio next time thank you :)
I want this unicycle so bad the handle seems nice too. Does it work on bumpy gravel trails? I have a 24inch I'm sure it would be quite a transition
Works great on bumpy or gravel
Hello could you please mention how we/I can purchase the nightfox with the handbrake and the green oracle tire? Thank you 🙏
i am planning a unicycle trip across Poland with a friend. We are both 5'5 and i am wondering what kind of a unicycle you might recommend?
troy and abed in the morning PLEASE INFORM ME ON HOW THIS WENT
Edd pratt
Get one.
hi nice vidéo . can U tell me how fast you can ride ? mph or km/h ?
thanks !
Fastest I rode was 18mph
@@Lizwilsonunicycle hooo hello you answered me 6 years later lol

Did you get the saddle on unicycle.com? I can't find the black and green gel saddle
UDC built it all for me. I believe the nimbus green/blk seat comes with Nightfox frame and they don't have individual ones for sale. Just call and ask. They are super helpful :)
It's a 4 bolt standard mount as I've seen other seats on the night fox. It just doesn't have a seat post. Bolts directly to the frame.
Liz wilson thanks a lot! That really helps my decision to get this uni
I ride a unicycle
1 is the loneliest number

Torque

What size cranks are you using?
bry00bry terrain really tells you what to use in crank length....however in this video I was on 125mm cranks. that is a good all around length for me!
I believe she is using 138mm cranks
