Speeds mean nothing if you don't tell us how far you rode for. A 500 yard ride is alot easier to maintain a 15mph average than say a 20mile ride

No one said it was gonna be easy and I'm not afraid to try, with the odds stacked up against me I will have to fight, One Life One Wheel got to do it right. H20
So lets see your average speed then at 14.9mph for a distance of 0.333 miles is a whoping Minute and Thirty Five seconds of total ride time. That is quite the feat evan.
All in good fun I'm sure you'll get some good distance averages down the line. Untill then... Cheers

Its handleing it rellly well, even for my crashes, some times it will just feel really cold, its really weird, but then about 5 min later it goes away.
Actually top speed over a short distance means something to those into sprinting. If you're identified with distance and endurance riding, fine, but bashing short stuff is like a miler bashing a 200 meter sprinter. There are different events in the Olympics, and for good reason. There is no objective "better." That's a term that exists only in your head.
Welp, I'm humbled. I was out for a Coker ride at lunch today to see just how fast i could go and live, 14MPH was all I could spin. Do 125's make that much difference? Maybe that will to live is the problem. 🙄
On my brother's KH24 I hit a max speed 23 mph on flat ground with 175 mm cranks. His b*ke computer on the unicycle does both RPM and speed. I hit 250 RPM!

Here's the evidence: a photo... The speed is in KPH, since we're in Canada. You can do the conversion yourself, if you'd like to confirm: http://www.onlineconversion.com.

Distance per revolution: 80.5" / 12" = 6.7083' Distance per minute: 6.7083 X 250 RPM = 1677.075' Distance per hour: = 1677.075' X 60 min = 100624.5' Speed in MPH = 100624.5' / 5280 ft/mile = *19.05767 MPH*
Does that sound more reasonable?
