Here's a neat graphic I cooked up.
Uni Styles Hi-res
Believe it or not, it's not a modified photo, but a 3D model rendered in Animation Master v4. Videos to come soon...

I am also very happy that last week I blew away my record for one foot wheel walk with 19 steps, about 10m. Since then, I can get over 10 steps almost every time once warmed up. Woohoo! One of these days I'll get some pictures doin' some cool stuff...


Until then...

One of the first things I notice is, this unicycle has cottered crank
arms. Not all to common on modern unicycles is it?

Yes, that's true... very few if any unicycles still have cottered cranks. My unicycle is ancient, however, and it is the one I modeled after... so the virtual uni has cottered cranks (which need replacement, by the way... kinda loose).

Ah yes, I forgot to mention that anyone is free to use this graphic for any non-commercial purposes. If you want me to modify it for a web graphic I can do that too (though it may be a while before I get a break to do so).

Very neatly done! I notice a couple of spokes have bends in them. Has this
unicycle experienced a bout of virtual violence?
