  1. i own one loverly custom muni and an old batterd crank twisted old "24
    and i was just wondering if a muni would be suitible for all types of
    riding including just road riding and iding while juggling?

    or is it time to invest??

  2. Depends what muni you have. Either way I doubt it would be perfect for
    any of the things you mention, but you could certainly do them to an
    extent, just not as well as say a 20/24" for idling or a 26/29" road uni
    for urban use. If you have the cash, why not go for another uni? They're
    relatively cheap!

  4. I used my muni as the general-purpose unicycle before the fleet
    expanded. It'll work, but you will wear the tyre out faster on the
    tarmac than on the trail.

    I invested in a smooth tyre (fireball, but something like a Hookworm
    looks the job) and some shorter cranks to convert the muni into a faster
    pavement cycle, you could give that a try.

  5. I was using a friends Muni for a while on pavement, and it performed
    better than my torker. The muni also had the fireball tire on it, and
    the PSI was signifigantly lowered than normal, which made for a fairly
    comfortable ride.
