Multiple Passenger Unicycle
I used the search function; didnt find anything; didnt really know what to search.
I wondered if it would be possible to ride double with a unicycle- It got me thinking, would it be possible to design a two person unicycle? I imagine that it would be extremely hard to ride, maybe chain driven? Ideas? Feedback? Designs? Discuss..? |

Someone should put pegs on like a 9foot giraffe and pedal around with someone standing on the pegs!

I'd seen that first picture before, not the second one.
There was a book that popped up on Ebay a while back on do-it-yourself-bike-building, maybe from the 50's or so. It had a 2-person unicycle shown on it, so the idea has been around a while. |

Yeah, I did a project on unicycling in 6th grade. One of my "chapters" was on different kinds of unicycles. In order to research this, I borrowed a book on building unicycles from the library that was written in the 1970s. It had two versions of two person unicycles. One like the ones shown above, and another was a giraffe, which had the neck bent so that there was a bottom seat and a top seat, so there would be two people riding, one about 3 feet above the other. (so they don't have to have equal balance this way).
