Suspension uni with disc brakes and handlebars!
My mate Adam sent me these pictures from Japan. This uni has three internal springs as the spokes to the wheel same design as suggested by Pete66 and discussed on this forum a few months ago. However they've gone even more futuristic by adding disc brakes, handlebars and a rear 'stabilising' wheel! Is this the future of unicycling?

hahaha!! thats kewl and dumb at the same time! Why does it have handlebars tho, and a training wheel? well it shows you can make a unicycle with suspension with a little tweaking.

but it's a bike! nothing but a really funny looking bike!
because i don't see how you could get onto the one wheel without using that "stablizing wheel" but that exercise thing is funny.

The crappy seat and pedals were a nice touch, a real testament to non-unicyclist designers. Not to mention dual steerer tubes on unnecessary handlebars.

that's pretty cool I s'pose, but it's barely a unicycle anymore.... technically it's not, with the training wheel. but even without that it couldn't really be called a standard unicycle....
