My old road unicycle was a Nimbus 36 frame &#8211; but, I had had dremmeled out the bearing holders to fit the 42mm bearings for the Schlumpf geared hub, which was a bad idea as it destroys the bearings in the hub. Luckily, I won a KH36 from the &#8220;Ride the Lobster&#8221; unicycle race. I finally got it a few months ago, but I still had not gotten my hub back from Switzerland until recently. So, I finally had all the pieces, and decided I wanted to paint the frame to match my other unis. In addition, I drilled out the rim to save a little weight.
