Reputable website for a new uni? (does seat post really matter?)
I know everyone says to go to unicycle.com to buy a uni, but I've found one that (at least seems like it would) meets most of my criteria: Torker LX Unistar -300 mm seat post -48-spoke -front handle, rear bumper -20" for $99.98 at shop.sunrisecyclery.com/item/10749 I don't know if this is a model that will stand up to some rigorous learning/experience-building or not (and any opinions on that would be wonderful!) I also don't know if this website is reliable or reputable, because I've never heard of anyone buying one from here. ALSO: Does a 300mm seat post vs. a 400mm seat post make a huge difference when you're learning? I'm 5'5", and it sounds like I should get a 300mm, but some models only come in 400mm, and one person told me that seat post doesn't really matter. I'm confused. {{{{Some other models I was considering, in order or preference: Semcycle XL 20" Standard -300 mm seat post -36-spoke -front and back bumpers for $165.00 at unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=535 Schwinn 20" -350 mm seat post -36-spoke -supposedly more durable (flat-bladed) for $139.00 at unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=59 Nimbus II 20" -400 mm seat post [[this concerns me]] -48-spoke for $144.00 at unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?=740 or 739 It's also out of stock, and I don't know about the bumpers on this one.}}}} -- zambonijones ------------------------------------------------------------------------ zambonijones's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/7580 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/35031 |
