I remember someone mentioning that they rig and de-rig their Monowheel by themselves. Could you shed some light on what sort of equipment you use to do this solo?

I bought Roger Huttlestone’s rigging kit along with the enclosed trailer. If Roger wants patterns to work from, to create more wing dollies, I can loan mine if I can figure out a way to safely support the wings without the dollies.

If you’re able to get to the Gloucestershire area, you’re welcome to have a look at my set-up.

Just a note of caution,

The Huttlestone wing dolly geometry for the Trigear is different to the Monowheel. I had a set of Mono dollies made and have used them on my Trigear. They are OK for a two person rig but hold the wing at the wrong angle for a single person rig. ( obvious when you think about it) . Also I think the original fibre glass wing profiles were made for the classic wing and are not perfect for the XS wing. Not a real problem but worth noting when talking to Roger about producing more.

Regards

Brian Davies
