    It takes twice the man to ride half the bike.

  2. It's just not a good idea to use a CX as a MUni. They just can't hold
    up to any sort of abuse. Do yourself a favor and just save the money
    for a proper MUni (or at least a Torker DX).

  3. I would suggest maybe a 2.3 tire at the most, with a decent agressive
    tread. Don't expect the uni to last very long if you start using it for
    more than just riding on the street.

  4. Torker CX is pretty much the worst uni ever. well, they're brilliant
    for beginner uni's but not much else. you could probably buy a really
    cheap MUni, maybe the Torker DX at least like daino said, even though
    that's not technically a MUni. it can fit a bigger wheel anyway, and
    has a splined hub/crankset. and a decent seat, which is one of the
    biggest things that a Torker CX lacks. so yes, go to unicycledotcom and
    look for cheap MUnis, and if they're all too expensive for you, then at
    least save up for a Torker DX. then maybe upgrade everything as you get
    better.

    or
