  1. I need some answers to some quetions i have .

    1 . I have seen many of the unicycle videos that people have
    posted on their sites and i would like to know what
    brand or how can i get a unicycle with one of those
    really fat tires and what is a good size for an
    intermidiate (not begineer) to use.

    2 . I would also like to see some examples of some of the
    unicycles i talked of in question 1..maybe a link or a
    picture would be nice

  2. check unicycle.com for unicycles with 'really fat tires'.
    the machines in question are used either for trials or muni,
    depending on wheel size. trials unicycles tend to have
    20x2.5" tires and are made my many, onza and kris holm are
    some of the favourite brands. Muni (mountain unicycle) uni's
    tend to have either 24" or 26" wheels and either a width of
    2.5" or 3.0". suggesting a unicycle all depends on what you
    ride , if you do alot of trials then definatly a 20 or maybe
    a 24, and for muni, id say a 24 for strength or a 26 for
    long distances

    sorry if this post isnt very clear, i hope it sheds light on
    the matter

    Size? Do you mean tyre width, wheel diameter or
    unicycle height?

    Anyways, virtually any size is good for an intermediate
    rider. 3" wide tyres are no problem. Wheel diameters from
    'too' small (12" or less) up to at least Coker (36"😉 are no
    problem. Giraffes up to 6', maybe 8', are no problem. Just
    stay away from trying to ride Sem Abrahams' 115 feet high
    giraffe for a while! :-)
