Where do you get Lunas??

I think from personal experience the try-all is softer compound than the CC, but compound hardness doesn't necessarily mean faster wearing. CC does wear fast, needs to be rotated every few weeks if you ride quite a lot.

Yeah it's finally here!!!

It's so cool the tire is so bouncy and the hub isn't crooked. yeah.

I've herd some bad and good things about the nimbus frame. It seems to be very very sturdy to me. It's a little on the heavy side but that dosen't bother me to much.

My question is IF the thing breaks what frame should I put on it?

Ive only seen one broken Nimbus II frame, and that was Codys. I think thats his name. But he always breaks things. =p

Ive seen one unicycle that was strapped on the back of a car. The car got slammed from behind by another car on the freeway. The whole uni was broke, except, tthe Nimbus II frame. =p

If you do manage to break it, any 42mm frame will fit it, so you have a lot of choices.
