I just put a set of 55mm Antelope Hill tires on a set of Dyad rims and
installed them on my Hunqapillar.
The tires, at slower speeds, have a TON of self-steer and in anything other
than a straight line, they are LOUD.

I've run the Jones bar on both my Karate Monkey and my Hunqapillar and
thought it was great on both. For my typical "just riding around" style of
riding, I prefer a regular MTB bar with a modest amount of sweep, but if I
started riding further from home or hauling my bike out to the local grave
I've had similar thoughts about my 1st run Hunqapillar vs the Appaloosa or
the new 55 cm Atlantis. From what I remember reading over the years, I
think the old Hunqapillars and Bombadils are probably quite a bit lighter
in weight than the Appaloosa and new Atlantis. I remember seeing numbers

I have always assumed all of (very few) orange trim Hunq's came from that
first batch. Maybe that is not the case.

I would be curious, as well. My Hunqapillar is from the very first batch
and I'm not even sure what year that was. 2011? Taiwan? I've heard of
Toyo and Wisconsin Hunqapillars but I'm assuming that first batch was from
Taiwan.
I have four different Hunqapillar brochures, one of which specif

It might be sacrilege, but if I ever decided to change the color of my
Hunqapillar, I would have it powder coated dull black. Deciding to change
the color would be an indication that it's a "forever" bike for me and I

The tube thicknesses Will quoted to me on the Appaloosa were pretty stout.
The down tube and seat tube were 1.1 and 1.2, respectively, at the butted
ends and .8 at the other ends. Top tube was .9 x .7

I’ve been keeping an eye on it (I’m a tracking obsessive). Previously at
anchor and on the live map it was outside the port waiting.
It is now showing as “moored” and the live map shows it alongside..
