I rode past Tony on the way home tonight and couldn’t help but turn around to find out more about his bike. It may not be evident from my phone-cam picture, but he’s riding 36 inch wheels. Apparently this is a promo bike from Coker (they make tires, commuting unicycles, and the odd bike among other things). Coker’s apparently fresh out of the Monster Cruiser, Tony’s riding a variant on that from what I can tell.
Tony says he just liked the bike. He rides for exercise on nice days. I can’t blame him, today was lovely in Seattle.
whoa — can you get more details on this bike?
Details added to the post. Coker makes a mini-penny-farthing too!
