The riding you described is trials, and street.

The Torker DX is a great cheap trials uni, and will hold up great for
street too. I have one and it has been holding up extremely well, even
with 8 foot drops done on it.

Dont worry if anyone comes here and says stuff about the frame braking,
because they fixed that in the newer versions.

There is also the nimbus hoppley, witch is 365 dollars, but a lot
stronger, and lighter.

Or you can go all out and buy the KH uni for just under 500 dollars.
Which is one of the best, IMO.

No, they are referring to http://www.unicycle.com also known as UDC on
the forums.

Is this the correct model..because i'm hearing a lot about this "old
model frame issue"?

That is the old model, but I think the frame breaking only happens when
riding really hard. If it snaps, I think torker will send you a new one
free.

action? sounds like one of those cheap brands.
yeah, sounds like you're coming along pretty well!
i concur, you definitely need a torker DX, it will stand up to most
anythign you can throw at it. 'it can be found here.'

No, unfortunatly, you have to pay shipping to send it to them so they
can decid if it was the manufacturer's fault. If the frame does break,
you can just buy a cheap $42 nimbus frame.

get the new 07 model because the old ones do break. yep. my friend's
and mine broke after a while and we were only jumping 6 sets and both
broke when we were trying to jump. The welds really suck. I would get
the new KH if i didnt have a good one already but you probably dont need
it and it is expencive.

even if you get a old one, dont worry about it breaking unless you are
progressing THAT fast. I learned trials on it and it hasnt broken yet

ehh i didnt make this up but it takes twice the man (or woman) to ride
half the bike and im sure everybody agrees

unicycle isnt a hobby, its a life style
