Popular Post Alex_from_NZ Posted September 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2018 Hi everyone, Sorry I didn't come across an active photo thread here for us to post our pictures in so thought I would start one. If there is an active one I missed please let me know so I can delete this and bump the active one back up. Would love to see some mini photos from around the world and see how you use them and where, would also love to see how you have customised your minis etc! I will start, I mounted the hybrid tyres the other day and decided to take my dog out for a walk in some trails today while the sun was shining. Was a bit muddy but the new tyres were excellent and didn't slip once. Top speed is negligible, the tyre hum is noticeable on paved surfaces but I kinda like that, and my dog is named Kora, she's a good girl ?. Cheers, Alex 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68bugboy Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I just use it for fun. I like to find new places to cruise around on paved bike paths. I usually travel between 12 to 20 miles per trip. I'm not into extreme speed. Slow and steady and enjoying the sites. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevmar Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) I have built handlebars out of 3/4" PVC schedule 40 piping. You can see that it self balances (and that I only have 3 battery bars left, I need a charge!). I machined a bracket out of a 1-1/2" square bar of aluminum, with a half inch wide bevel off each of the bar's corners, and a 30 degrees from vertical sloping surface to tap 3/4NSF so I can screw the pipe to the aluminum. Why did I do this? I wanted a handlebars that didn't run away if left unattended, and which had less of a "firm" feel to them, to remind me that I shouldn't grip the handlebars for support. But I failed at both objectives. The bars are in fact quite nicely firm, yet when made out of 1/2 piping were not firm enough. Sigh... And it turns out that on a flat surface even self-balancing bars occasionally cause the unit to move forward (especially if there is a 'downhill' direction to go in). But there is no force to this movement, and even a slight divet will keep the MiniPRO stationary. Could it be improved? You bet, with the 3D printing technology which I don't have yet But at least I had a vertical mill to make this old-fashioned version The tires are already discussed here: Edited September 16, 2018 by trevmar 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to live just up the road from there and it's a cool area they have done up. Whenever i have a chance i go down there and to the end of the tank farm to see if anyone has caught anything off the breakwater there. It's surprising the fish that live in the harbor still haha. Wouldnt eat them myself though... 1 minute ago, The Fat Unicyclist said: @Alex_from_NZ… When you have an EUC we will have to take a group photo from there, yes? I would be very interested in a group ride once I'm capable! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
