Is there anyone here who has/can ride a unicycle? I ride...a lot. Offroad and trials unicycling, etc. Mmm, unicycle.

We have some mountain unicyclers around here. They be crazyDuffle said:
I try occasionaly but have never mastered it.
Yes, people seem to think I'm crazy too, but I've come to accept that...5' drops on a unicycle do cause some interesting reactions.
do you have suspention? (z150 with a seat on top)
Ha, no, I don't see pedaling working all too well...and you hold onto the seat to hop, so that might get a little wiggy. My seat is nice and soft though. well...relativly soft. Not miyata airseat soft *grumps*.
Zod on here rides a unicycle offroad. If you PM don't use big words it might stump him.
in general, does one clip in on a unicycle?
that would be insaneluken8r said:
Nope. Platform pedals are pretty much standard. There are a couple people that use clipless pedals for racing (road/track), but for anything else it isn't the best idea. Falls can happen rather quickly, and being attached to your unicycle just doesn't always have good consequences. The pic attached is my new trials unicycle. It's my baby :-D

what doues that run?$$
Eh...that one is rather high end, and thusly expensive. It was around $475. Not bad when you consider that you actually can spend $1000 on a stock model and this was quite customized :-D.
I have a Uni , I am still trying to master it . any Hints ?
noah is a crazy unicycler...
ps. i got my fork you wanna come and ride today, if it stops raining?

Practice a lot. A whole lot. Heh. I learned using a big long fence and just riding back and forth, gradually using the wall less and less, and then you'll just be able to take off...err...pedalling. Also, hopping on a uni is much easier than riding, so if you want something to do inbetween those boring fall laden practicing you can mess around with that.
Heck yes! *looks outside* I think it stopped. I'll probably be out riding between 3:30 and 4, 'til whenever.dirtjumpP.1 said:
A few questions:
1)Does it come in rootbeer?
2)Can it fit a 3.0 Gazzallodi
3)Can a fire extinguisher be added to it?
It also looks flexy.
.
Looks like fun, but I know I wouldn't be able to do it.

the answer to #2 is yes, it can, but they dont make a 20" and the 24" is disscontinued. no gazzis for noah
i have to get a new headset, so ill be out around 3:30, ill be at the jump.Duffle said:
You could probably get it powder coated rootbeer. or put scratch and sniff rootbeer stickers on it! No more 24x3" Gazz tire means no for the second, but I do have a 3" tire on my MUni (mountian unicycle). You could get a 26" MUni though, and then you could have your 3" gazz 
. And I see no reason why a fire extinguisher could not be stuck on there somehow. Maybe a tiny one under my seat, yes.

Yes, you can go pro while unicycling. Kris Holm competes in bike trials comps :-D

a guy does you trick, the pedalstall uniflip that i was doing to, you should lean to do that
There's a big Unicycle scene here in Wellington. Those are some crazy mofos. I seen 'em riding ledges on the top of skyscrapers. Nuts. Instant death. They all have Gazzas. See www.vorb.co.nz
what size tire is that, is it like a normal wheel or a specail uni wheel?
uh i just realized i asked a already answerd question... oppps
*looks* Great, now I can't find where I answered it. It's a 19" trials rim with a 2.5" tire. That somehow is wider than a friend's 2.6. *shifty eyed glances*
Yeah, there was just a unicycle comp down in NZ, I think, or there's one coming up relativly soon. Makes me jealous. I have to go halfway across the country to go to any.

its closer to 3in when its practicly flat
Only on the bottom. If it's flat it should be smaller, no? . It's nice and grippy this way, leave me alone. Besides, you want it almost flat for riding down handrails and stuff. Or the sides of benches. ha!

or rocks and the haggard plywood that connects them for that matter
My haggard plywood has been applyed (ha, pun) to your attempts at a backflip. And I blame you, because I had to come home and take a shower to stop itching.
