Do you have a source for this? I see Nimbus, Kris Holm and Impact on Amazon, and at least this Nimbus Unicycle ships from somewhere besides unicycle.com (I assume that's what Unicycle Shop is since the logo looks the same).
> They sell only quality unicycles so it's not all bad.
Agreed, and they have fairly reasonable prices too.
avoid this one, it does this
tho, 26" fucking rocks, I'll never go smaller, except with my 16".
You can learn on a cheap unicycle, but if you can spare the change I'd get a Torker Unistar for 100-150 depending on size etc. That will assure you don't have some of the problems common to lots of cheap unicycles (cottered cranks, uncomfortable seats, etc.)
I've bought two on Craigslist, one was 80 bucks (24") and one was 50 (20"). Both were in good condition, though one was assembled incorrectly (cranks were on the wrong side). I also picked up a cheap 20" for ten dollars from a local sporting goods store - that was a good deal because it was so cheap but I have to hammer the cotter pins back in every once in a while, it doesn't have a quick-release seat post, etc.

I am thinking of making it on my own in India. Not sure, how safe the end product will be. :-)
I bought this one (Avenir DLX Unicycle https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001V662XQ/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_OHLxub03GQ0S5) and I'm happy with it. I've only had it for a month, though, and I can only ride it a few feet. But I'll get there!
It surprises me that people in a circus club wouldn't be all about learning the unicycle. It's super fun to learn as long as you're not easily frustrated.
Aw. That really sucks. I tore my meniscus when I was younger. It's such a pain.
Is a unicycle strange?
Everyone always suggest Torker but me and my friends have gone through 3 of them and not one held up to a day of muni i think your better of with one of these 20" 24".
yeah, it's torker. Here's the link of the ones i'm looking at(click)

That looks like a kids unicycle. 18" is an odd tire size that I think was built specifically for little kids. 20" is where most adult freestyle/jugglers would want to be at.
24" avenir dlx that I learned on. Soon to be owner of a nimbus 29" road unicycle. Can't wait to ride it. :D (edit: formatting)

see for yourself
This is what I found under unicycle training wheels.
This looks like a cyco cycle type device.
This screams hipster affectation, not fun transportation.
i think ill go with a 20" then. Any recommendations on brand or does it really not matter? I was thinking of buying this (in blue) https://www.amazon.com/Fun-Inch-Wheel-Unicycle-Alloy/dp/B003R9U9J8/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=outdoor-recreation&ie=UTF8&qid=1539569691&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=unicycle&psc=1
I would recommend the LX model instead of the CX. The seat on the CX is a brick in comparison.
seriously?

you want someone who has no experience on unicycling to spend over 300 bucks when they don't even know if they'd end up liking it or stick to it?
I recently bought one of these. http://amzn.com/B001NGD5HK
It's pretty decent.
How about these?:

Had a Sun, that was pretty flimsy and the rim broke soon as I started to learn how to hop. I have a 20 in. nimbus and I couldn't be happier! Unless of course I had the bank to buy a Kris Holm uni.
what I had
what I currently have
It also does great off road
If you are serious about buying a unicycle, I would recommend purchasing one that you know you will use in the future, instead of buying a cheap-o and end up growing out of it in 3-6 months and wasting your money. Then again, you may find out that unicycling isn't for you and regret buying an expensive you. It's your call.
