Is this all you people say?
I put a lot of hope into this new tire(s) - my KH36 is barefoot(-rim) for some time now!

I would get your ride some new shoes, might be a while before these become available.

Yah I was hopping for a bit more response (like unijuul) but then remembered that the minority of unicyclists have 36ers, of those who do a minority ride them regularly, of that sup group a minority rides off-road, and of that little subset of the greater unicycling community a minority of them are active forum members.

I know what you mean and I don't really like the list, just started this thread trying to help Matt and Walt gauge interest here and hopefully make this a reality.

I remember telling Kris that if he raised the crown on the KH26 to accept a 3" tire I would get one, but ended up getting a KH29 frame with brake mounts added for 26" instead. My RaRa blew it's bead so I am sewing up a new tire. Maybe I will be so happy with it I won't buy this tire when/if it comes out, but I probably will anyway.

If we went for the low pressure like the TA and Coker then we can probably drop 100g... but most people don't want that.

So for the moment I have the only sample. :-P

Roger
I'm not sure I get the stuff about pressures. Why do 36" tyres need high pressure? It's a high volume tyre, not a skinny road bike 700c. Cars use low pressures on high volume.

When I ride, I usually run 30, sometimes less.

Still a work in progress, but there is progress. Will update everyone once we get pricing and timeline approximated, which will likely take a few weeks. Thanks again for everyone's input and help.

I would like one too.

If they are making a road tyre, I would like one of those too. That makes two.

Thanks for organising this.

Re-ordered again by volume, and tire type preference. I think everyone is still there. This is exciting!
