If you can muster up $307 CAD you can get an 06 torker dx

We got my brother a non splined trials uni for $180 CAD from a local bike shop (they come from a montreal supplier "lambert cycles")... any non splined will probably perform the same. Here's a pic of it:

If you plan on practicing once or twice a week, and are half-decent at trials, a non-splined setup is going to break really, really fast. I weight about 135, and my crap (however much I might love it, it's not a strong unicycle by any means) norco bent on a badly landed 1.5ft jump to dirt. If you can't get splined now, save up the extra money and buy splined, because it will pay for itself in the end.
