G'Day im new, i also have a question
Hey guys.... aussie from down under here getting into the spirit.
I got my first uni off ebay and typical ebayians, the wheel buckled a few days later. anyways..... i currently have an 18" wheel but im planning on extending the forks another 2" and just under the seat another 2" higher. then i will be able to put a maxxi tyre on it and also fit me a bit better..... so... has anyone ever tries this before? |

Sounds like it would work. But if you want a great, durable learning unicycle. Get the Torker Unistar LX 20-inch. That one's wheel wont buckle the first few weeks.
Welcome to the forums!

Hello, and welcome.
I reccomend that you get an LX like Poseidon said. If you get that it will last you longer and when you get a bit better it will allow you to do bigger drops than a normal learner would. Brad. |
