What unicycle should I get?

Hi sorry if this has been asked before, i'm new here. I am going to buy
my second unicycle probably for christmas and I don't know what ot get.
I will be doing some muni and some trials/street. I am thinking either
the nimbus 24, the nimbus 20, or the dx 20. The only reason I'm not
considering the dx 24 is cause i'm too short . I've heard muni is best
for both but i don't know. THanks for the help

If you think you are going to focus more on trials, then I think the
'Nimbus ISIS Trials'
(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=1048) would probably be
your best bet. You can take it offroad too, you just wont go as fast as
you would with a 24. You might also want to upgrade to the KH Moment
cranks, but it'll cost you a bit more.

My budget is $315 at most. And I think I will be doing probably about
exactly half and half trials and muni

I would go for the Nimbus Trials or the Nimbus Muni. Either should work
fine. If you are really short it might make sense to go with a small
wheel.

You can do trials on a 24" too, but a 19" (20) trials is much easier to
control. It's lighter and more nimble.

...then I'd say it's a toss up.

If you also want to do some street of flat tricks I'd get the trials.

If you also want to ride around town the Muni would be a bit faster +
there are road tires available like the Maxis Hookworm, as opposed to
only nobbies. If you go for the Nimbus Muni, make sure it's the '09.

Size should't be an issue w/ any 24". Just cut the post down, only an
inch or two at a time though.

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.- Bob Burnquist

I have been looking for a used kh but don''t know where to find one. And
thanks for all the answers I really appreciate it. I just realized
that UDCs showroom is in Marrietta (not sure of spelling) GA which is
about an hours drive from where I live and hopefully will be able to go
down there sometime. form What i'm hearing the nimbus trials or muni
would be best but i'm gonna try them out
