Hey every body I have a friend that has a Unicycle and I tried it out its pretty fun and I was looking to get into it but buying one is like 160$ and I want to learn before I buy a 160$ cycle or get a used one which is my question does any body have a used unicycle in good shap thats just a basic one to learn on or know a site that they have cheap or used ones? And any info would be great since im new to this.

Oh and if any one knows how to make one I can make one but I dont know how i would get the peddals connected to the rim of the tire so you have to peddal thanks


Thanks in advance

Its not that we don't want to help, cause all of us do =p but just where you posted doesn't get much coverage from other people on this site =p

For a good cheap learners unicycle, try your LBS (local bike store) they probably carry the torker products, and the Torker LX is a great uni to learn with, and it costs only 100 dollars, also at UDC (unicycle.com) you can look at some from there, if you really want a cheap uni though, you'll have to look on-line, at ebay or other sites like that.

I cant help you about the making of a uni though, i don't know anything about making one, but its something ill learn sometime, then try to make my own, thats gonna be fun =p

Oh! Welcome to the forums!:D

i got my first uni on ebay for like 90 dollars, it was a torker and lasted me a really long time. In fact it lasted me about 3 years, it just recently died.
