24" for trials instead of 20"??

for most peopel its a matter of preference and siz e of the person...24"
is usually a bit heaver but some peopel like this because you get a
better feeling of control. its all a matter of preference in most
cases...it should be just fine.

You can't get up and try it again if you don't fall first.

I'm wondering if the 24" size is really the ideal for BOTH muni AND
Trials?
I've seen so many vids showing both 20" & 24" unis being used for
trials
where both riders (young as well) were doing the same high level
tricks. It
just seems that a 24" is the best choice (especially for tallere
riders)
because where a 24" is the standard for muni, a 20" is too small. So
if you
can do both muni and trials with the same size, that's a big plus,
right?
Please correct me if I'm way off base here.

Redondo beach, CA, to Venice Beach, CA area.)***

In U1, Kris Holm rides insane trials lines on a 24" MUni. With skill,
trials on a MUni is completely reasonable. However, a 20" uni makes
learning trials, freestyle, and street much easier, and makes the
hardest possible trials lines doable. Realistically, if your idea of
trials is hopping on picinic tables seat-then-top, a 24" will be just
fine. If you want to push the limits of what is doable on a unicycle,
then you should be riding a 20" trials cycle in town, and a 24" on the
mountain.
