rim question

if your getting the same rim you can re-use the spokes and nipples so
all you would need is the same rim.

if your getting a much different rim then you would probably need new
spokes to suit the difference in lengths of spokes.

however if your changing rims its better to change spokes aswell
because they will be stronger. but if money is lacking the old ones can
be re-used.

if your doing it yourself you'll need a spoke wrench.

uhm
maybe, how many spokes is the unicycle?

if your current rim is not bent beyond repair there is no reason to get
a new one.

and, unless you are using it for freestyle there is no reason to get a
20" rim, i don't know what kind of riding you are doing. you may not be
able to use the new rim w/ the old spokes because double wall rims
usually anchor the spokes closer to the hub... which = shorter spokes.

Excellent for learning and enjoying general riding. To turn it into a
good trials uni, all you need is, a stronger seat base, seat post,
frame, hub, better cranks, and a new tire to go with your new rim.
Maybe you can reuse the spokes, I dunno.
Really, it is a great uni. I would avoid smashing it up, or modding
it in any way except to put on a seat you like. There is plenty of fun
to have on that uni while you save up and wait for the KH's to come
back in stock at A E Bike.🙂

if i wanted to replace a rim
what would i need?
do i just need a new rim or anything else
or is it easier to get a wheelkit?
just looking for some advice thanks

(im looking at peppl.com) if that helps

you would need new spokes. of the correct lenght maybe nipples.
it is easier to get a whole wheel set.
i would not change anything on that uni except the seat or pedals. if
they need it.
