Unicycle Sizes

a rider's size matters very little compared to a riders style
if you're doing freestyle (tricks) or trials (jumping) consider buying a
20" if you're riding MUni, consider a KH24, if you're mostly commuting
consider a 29er or coker.

Size mainly depends on what style of unicycling you will be doing. If
your into Trials and Street then the KH20 will be fine, even for you
hieght.
But if you want to do Muni or commuting you will want to get something
bigger, like 24" and up.
For your height though you could probably use a 24" for trials aswell.

Hope this has helped, im not an expert at all but this is what i know.

The difference between a 20 and a 24 is significant: the 24 is 20%
bigger.

Generally, a 20's best for learning and for skills. A 24's more
versatile and better for longer journeys or rough ground.

29s are for longer distances, rougher terrain, but are less
manouvreable, and a bit more of a handful on hills. 26s are a sort of
half way house between 24s and 29s.

Height and weight will influence your choice to some extent. I'd guess
that you'd still do best with a 20 as your first uni, but it is fair to
say that you'd manage a 24 better than you would if you were 5 foot 7
and 140 pounds.

If you stick with the sport, you will end up with more than one uni. If
you don't stick with it, the 20 will be easier to sell.

Ok, thanks for the help guys, I think I'll either get a 24 inch or maybe
a 26, because I intend to do some muni 🙂
