the trials mop Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Does anyone know any large volume 20" slicks or semi slicks as I need one for my trials unicycle to do hall riding. I've seen a try-all one but can't find it anywhere in production, help much appreciated.cheers jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Stanley knife/grinder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I'm pretty sure matt bird cut it off, 'cos he still has tread on one side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sstein Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I am pretty sure that Matt Bird used an angle grinder on his actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigamac Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 (edited) ACTUALLY matt bird has a trial-all tyre and another one. He then didn't like the tread so cut it all off. Apart from the side oh which he hops to.Edit: with a knife. Edited April 30, 2009 by bigamac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Custom-cut Try-All tyre. At least a year ago it was very popular amongst Street and flatland unicyclists, esp. on the Koxx One team.They used stanley knifes and sand belt grinders.

PaRtZ Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 I *think* he got a normal try-all and cut it. That seems to be the general consensus here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger allen echo Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 I made a slick creapy crawler tyer by just cutting the side nobbls off it when it was bald, and then used an angle grinder to smoothen it off.Ginger Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
