I'm just starting, so I guess just being able to ride around on the
street, maybe a few tricks, I guess that would be freestyle?

Would the Nimbus II, with a 20 inch wheel be good for a first timer to
start on? I have tried on my cousins uni, although it was a little too
big. Any suggestion for a good starter uni, or is the Nimbus II a good
start? I am about 4 foot 9.5, and weight about 75 pounds (yes, i am
very small). I still don't know if a 20 inch, or 24 inch would be
better....

Wow, you're literally the -exact- size as me! And yes, the Nimbus II
would be absolutely perfect for you.

Why? I clicked "Post follow-up message" (I'm pretty sure you can't
find that!) and it worked perfectly well.

The Nimbus II 20" is an excellent unicycle to start on.

Yeah. I have a Nimbus II 20" which I did most of my learning on. I still
love it and am still learning on it.

Thanks everyone, but I just found out that if i don't want to pay for it
(which I don't, but more importantly -can't-) I need to wait for my
b-day, which is February 2nd. This stinks!
