Re: Starter Cycle?

It's not a big difference for learning. More important is how you think
you'll ride once you get going. If you want to go places, get the 24".
If you're more interested in tricks and riding in small areas, get the
20".

$89.00 for the 20" LX
$99.00 for the 24" LX
Not a significant difference to choose the less expensive one.
It probably is a little easier to learn on, but again not a significant
difference. So don't let those differences be your reason for choosing
the smaller size.

I feel that the 24" would be a better choice. I learned on a 20" Torker
and eventually bought a 24" LX which I now ride instead of the 20". The
24" will allow you to go faster and further with each revolution of the
wheel.

You'll eventually have a complete assortment of unicycles, so it doesn't
really matter too much what your first one is.

My town is hilly and not much places to do tricks, so i think im looking
at the 24.

Ya, you will be fine without one, they are only used 24" for real steep
stuff, like mountians, you wont need one on the street.
