Sun flat top
I'm just about to order a Blue Sun flat top 20" Unicycle (first unicycle) and I Was wondering if anyone had heard anything about them. I am 5" tall and the minimum inseam is 30" would I be able to ride this?

wahahahahahhaha look at the crown on that thing talk about knee bashing Aside from that it looks pretty good, and you could always buy one of Ev'ans Fr' (http://tinyurl.com/ytv8vz)ame's. If your hurting for money it's pretty good but I would lean more towards getting a 'Nimbus' (http://tinyurl.com/5wlnr). -- Joe2005 nobody knows what happened to that boy after that.-Nutcracker i know. he was kidnapped by aliens, learnt their ways, stole the biggest ship he could, travelled back in time by mistake and crashed the plane on the earth surface. he was the one who killed the dinosaurs. -ivan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Joe2005's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13692 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/63462 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

The nimbus sounds good but the price is right on the sun ft and I don't even know how to ride a unicycle yet. The nimbus also has a 400mm seatpost which I think might be a bit long - I'm 10 years old and 5 feet tall. The knee bashing shouldn't be that bad if i wear proper pads though. -- sunft ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sunft's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15604 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/63462 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Stay well clear of all Sun unis. I've had MANY stories of them breaking after little use. A friend tacoed the wheel on his by going of a curb and then doing a sharp turn. A better learner is the Torker LX a bit more $ and a lot stronger, both not as much as the Nimbus though. -- skilewis74 Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere.

My first unicycle was the Sun ft and it was great. It held up to many drops larger than a curb. My friend who had the LX bent his cranks doing a silly 7 inch drop and I did the same thing and mine are fine (we're about the same height/weight). I would think they are about the same, strength wise. I learned how to ride and hop up onto curbs and I highly recommend this uni as a first one. You can always upgrade later. One thing though. UPGRADE THE SEAT.

I would go with Torker, they're cheap and reliable and strong. Suns have a reputation for being easily breakable. I've owned a couple of Torkers in the past and they've been reliable. My first uni was an LX and it withstood four and a half foot drops with out anything breaking. Go with Torker, not Sun. -- austingillespie Hard work never killed anybody, but why take a chance ------------------------------------------------------------------------ austingillespie's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15576 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/63462 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
