The Torker LX is a good unicycle for learning and just riding around. It probably will not hold up with hard use though.

looks like a good investment in his unicycle career.
just make sure he stays on the pavement with it so that it can live a long, healthy, balanced life!

LX=AMAZING begginer uni, I used it and its crank finally stripped after a bunch of 1-1.5 foot drops and riding down stairs though 🙂.
I would still reccomend him the 20" unless he wants to be doing MUni or just commuter riding because most trials, street, and freestyle riders don't use 24s...

well right now he says he wants to use it to go places and likes my uni which is 24. but if hes like me, hes gonna want to get a trials . i said i was gonna use the uni to go places but i learned 24 isnt that fast (its not slow either) but i wanna get a trials and then eventually get a coker.
p.s. i have 150 saved for a nimbus isis trials, 2 more pay checks and the order is gonna be final.

Its a good buy. He can get it on ebay for cheaper I think. And good choice on the nimbus ISIS trials. I LOVE mine. I hope you are upgrading the cranks to KH.
