36er or BC
I've been wondering what I should get, a 36er or a BC wheel...I've wanted both equally for a while and can't really decide what to get. Anyone have more fun on one compared to the other? -- T.M.C. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ T.M.C.'s Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15645 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72923 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Get a 36'er. There more fun in my opinion and you'll probly use it alot more than a bc wheel. Why not just get both? -- Unicycle-Emele Any unicyclist in Westchester County, NY 'pm ' (http://tinyurl.com/6xu626)me.

Dude, the 36er is a unicycle in a class of its own. Having never tried a BC wheel, I can't really comment about them. I would search some threads, maybe watch some Youtube videos and make a decision based on which seems like it would be more fun. (Failing that, just go for the 36er. Trust me.) -- unisteve \"the real answer is that you want both.\" -joemarshall ------------------------------------------------------------------------ unisteve's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/543 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72923 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I'm not really familiar with any other U.S.-based unicycle sellers. (I bought mine from Darren 'Bedford' (http://www.bedfordunicycles.ca/), and I don't know if he's sold out or not by now.) Maybe try the KH 'dealer' (http://www.krisholm.com/khu/buy) page. -- unisteve \"the real answer is that you want both.\" -joemarshall ------------------------------------------------------------------------ unisteve's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/543 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72923 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Also, being an owner of both a bc and 36er, I def. think the 36er is way awesomer and i ride it a lot more than my bc. -- fatlardboy13 **)--360 UNISPIN--':COOL:, *Juggling stuffs:* 3 balls- 401 catches 4 balls-83 catches 5-balls-workin on it ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fatlardboy13's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/14510 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72923 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Having both I suggest getting the 36er first. Its in a totally different league and a blast to ride. BC wheels are fun too but far less practical and not as immediately fun. I think its best to get a BC when you begin to bore of unicycling. Its a nice new challenge and a bit of a change from the same old. -- Brian O. *'ProjectUNI' (http://www.projectuni.com) - *3D Unicycle Computer Game** - Follow the 'progress.'

36er or BC
I have both a 36" and a BC...and I have been riding the BC much longer than I've owned my 36. IMO you should get the 36 first, then get (or make) the BC when you can afford it. I have a Nimbus Titan 36 and love it!! As for the BC wheel, it's more of a novelty thing if you're just starting out...or if you're serious like me, it's an animal of it's own. You can't do much with a BC other than coast, hop, grind, and flatland stuff. I can't jump or do any tricks other than ride it. I'm strictly a downhill and flatland BC wheel rider...riding for speed and distance. In the long run, you'll be much more happier getting a 36 before you get a BC. If you want to go cheap, buy the plates and get the other parts from your bike shop and put it together...which is what I did. -- joejumps4fun ~*Joey* www.geocities.com/jneigh4 www.youtube.com/jneigh www.vimeo.com/jneigh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ joejumps4fun's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12476 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72923 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
