Whats more fun and worth it? BC or Ultimate wheel?
If youve seen my busking thread you would know im makin lots of money. with that money ive already bought a KH20 (07) street uni. ive got leftover ($116) so im saving up for an ULTIMATE wheel or a BC wheel.
should i start off with the 20" ultimate whel (if i get it) or something bigger. you know what in the poll ill just put ultimate wheel. the BC wheel is 30$ more but too me it sounnds and looks more fun... Ive never watched any vids, talked about, or rode ultimate weels and BC wheels so i thought its the only fun unicycle left for me. on the BC do u have to be on a slope/down hill to ride it? so whats worth the money and is the most fun to ride? http://www.unicycle.au.com/View.php?...&Code=UNIULT20 BC wheel Ultimate wheel

If you'd like to use it for busking, I'd go the Ultimate wheel e.g.

I recommend the BC. It's awesome riding down slopes and getting speed.

BC wheels are much more fun. However, an ultimate wheel *may* be a little more practical if you want to use it for busking.\
But I'd still say go for the BC. Once you get better at it you can ride it on flat just fine, you kinda push it like a skateboard to get it started.

I also think UW with cranks can be fun and challenging at the same time.

Never tried either, but the BC wheel just seems like it'd be more fun. For busking, I think the ultimate wheel isn't that different visually from a unicycle, and your talents on it would tend to be underappreciated.

I agree that UW would be good for busking.
Ive seen 2 vids of Bc wheels, it looks like you can only go like 10 meters and thats it... if you go down a little slope i guess it would be ok. It does look very fun though. I dont think theres many tricks to do on a BC wheel except sharp turns, free mount and a hop.
