You can learn on any unicycle. However, I strongly recommend a 20 as a
first uni.

Later, you can "tune it" to suit your style of riding. A fat tyred 20
can be good for a bit of muni and cross country, is idea for trials, and
a 20 is the best size for freestyle.

Also, if you decide to buy a second uni, then choosing one at the end of
the spectrum (20 is the smallest common size) means that you can choose
one noticeably different (e.g. a 28/29). If you buy a 24 first, a 20 is
only a little bit smaller, and a 28 isn't that much bigger, if you see
what I mean.

Also, if the worst happens and you hate it, a 20 will be easier to
sell.

So, I suggest, buy a 20 inch from a unicycle specialist, rather than a
local bike shop. Later, upgrade it with shorter cranksa ndbetter
pedals. Find out what you enjoy, the choose your next uni to suit your
own tastes.
