Product details

Achieve high (no pun intended) audience impact with the Nimbus Performer Giraffe Unicycle! Size does matter!


This giraffe unicycle can be extended from 5 feet tall to 7 feet tall and is designed to be tough enough for performing. It can be rapidly dismantled for ease of transportation. The Nimbus Performer Giraffe unicycle can be disassembled into four sections which fit into an ordinary suitcase, 26x20x7" (65x50x18cm) - ideal for travelling performers. 


At seven feet tall, this really is a spectacular machine.  Once you overcome the nerves of mounting a unicycle considerably taller than you, the ride is surprisingly easy.  The great height gives you much improved stability and more time to correct yourself - in the same way that balancing a broom handle vertically on your finger is easier than balancing a pencil.  


We certainly wouldn't recommend this to anyone but well experienced unicycle riders since you do have a very long way to fall! However, if you are a proficient unicyclist and are confident that you can always perform controlled feet-first dismounts, this unicycle will impress absolutely everyone who sees you ride it.


This giraffe unicycle comes with two sets of chains and an extra frame section with quick-release to convert it from a 5 foot to a 7 foot giraffe in minutes. To extend from 5' to 7' the quick-release between the pedals and the wheel is undone and the chains removed; an extra section of frame is inserted and the longer chains fitted. The frame sections slot together so that they will not twist nor move independently of each other. 


The Nimbus Performer Giraffe Unicycle has large sprockets to reduce chain and cog wear. The upper sprockets have chain-guards.


The quality chain tensioner allows you to keep the chain settings between dismantling and the specially designed hub uses a 5-bolt mounting system to securely hold the sprockets in place on both sides, this also allows minute adjustment to chain tension. 


The double chain design equalises tension on the wheel - single chain giraffes can pull the wheel out of alignment with the frame. Two chains make the unicycle much stronger.


The tyre on this unicycle is a Kenda Kikzumbut 20 x 1.95" tyre.


Fits leg sizes 32" (81cm) to 40" (102cm) (this is inside leg length from crotch to floor). Seatpost can be cut down for 30½" (77cm). For longer or shorter inside leg lengths you can buy different length seat posts.

Nimbus Performer Giraffe Unicycle (5ft - 7ft)

Average
Great product, Nice and strong. Review by Oli , 11/10/2011
Value
I purchased one of these of this site a couple of moths ago. First of all I looked around quite a lot to see if I could find it cheaper than on the unicycle site and I would recommend this site. I think it was about £35 cheaper than anywhere else on the web and they also rang me up as the delivery address wasn't the same as the card holders address to check it was genuine. Delivery was within a couple of days which was good too. The unicycle is very strong and feels very secure. Very impressed with the construction and would promote it to anyone that is going from a normal size unicycle to a giraffe, instead of going head first to 7ft. When you are up there for the first time it feels a lot higher than it is and it is good to be able to change it to 5ft until you have enough confidence. Great product and only takes about 10 minutes to change from big size to small. However you will need a small allen key to tension the chain which is not supplied. The spanner however that comes with it is not something they have just chucked in that is flimsy, it very good quality.
Very good product, I know they are quite expensive but it is definatly worth it and the price is probably because they don't sell very many of them. You won't find it cheaper new than on this site!
