Yeah I won’t be like Mimo, not even with Michelin outfit. I am actually more interested in a BC Wheel. I already learned they aren’t made or sold anymore. Municycle.com said I should find me a welder. Could it be new project for you @Ulkicycling 
I’ve looked around in my area, but I reckon I would need some kind of schematic. No non-unicycling welder would understand what it is.
Wow I just found this video of someone riding BC wheel. It looks so easy:
This is a new one for me. Because the foot pegs are below the axle, there’s a fairer measure of possibility. This will be a challenge!
In the Dutch thread, @leo said BC wheels have the foot pegs below the hub, but the impossible wheel at the same height of the hub. A BC wheel seems easier to use. Riding UW is very very heavy, but maybe just standing and rolling is less tiring like riding with an EUC.
Not all BC wheels are created equal. A larger “drop” should make one BC wheel easier to ride than another. My BC wheel has a very shallow drop, and is very hard for me to ride.
How much harder is a BC wheel than an UW?
I wonder if the ability to ride a BC wheel is making learning to ride a freewheeling unicycle noticeably easier. There seems to be a very similar pattern to keep the balance.
That may be the case. If that is the case, then I have proven (so far) that I have no business buying a freewheel unicycle. 
They are two completely different animals. But, I think the BC wheel is much more difficult, but for completely different reasons.
The difficulty in the UW is side-to-side “balance”/coordination. The difficulty in the BC wheel is front/back “balance”, and the potential for a “splat” like an egg hitting the concrete. (At least, that’s how the BC wheel feels to me).
When I “get in the groove” with the UW, it feels magical, albeit for only a couple rotations until the tire rubs my calf again. I can imagine that the BC wheel provides a magical feeling also. I just haven’t felt that, yet. I think my BC wheel needs much longer “drops”, for me.
How do you figure the UW being a side-to-side balance thing? Just like with a bike or a unicycle, you just roll towards where you fall. With the UW of course when first mounting you shouldn’t fall side ways, but when you’re on and start riding it is the front-back balance that I have to keep under control. For side ways I just hang for the direction I want to go to, so when steering.
I have no experience with either, but I think front/back is easier to control on the UW than on the BC (no pedals to accelerate / decelerate the wheel, here), thus it‘s less of a problem for @Uni2ONE2. That‘s the way I read his post anyway.
Maybe 15 years ago I had the opportunity to test a BC for some training hours in a gym hall. Standing on the BC and between two boxes I propelled myself and made it at maximum to the other side of the very small hall. Holding equilibrium was exhausting, just on different muscles than the UW. It was much fun to see yourself getting better and better and that’s the main reason for a BC at least on the first 15m-20m.
On a flat surface the UW goes further, on a slightly inclined surface like a street coming down a dike the BC will be better. But you have to walk back. Whereas with the UW can ride back. Once there is a dog or something else pulling, the BC wins- although it’ll be tough/exhausting to be pulled discontinuously by a dog.
@Setonix , pull the motor plug of your EUC and enjoy, plug the motor in to come back 
It’s not so much balancing MYSELF, side to side, but that tendency of the UW to want to flip onto its side at the “UW dead spot” on each rotation. To be fair, I am a fledgling UW rider, and have no business providing suggestions of how to ride one. I was just trying to communicate the differences in how my body feels when riding them. The BC wheel feels (currently) like it could fly out from under me and leave me hanging in midair like a cartoon character at any moment. I don’t get that feeling with the UW.
Compared to the giraffe discussion, a BC is the lowest uni you can ride 
Like on a skate board I know what you mean. Although in the gym hall without any bumps I don’t remember that problem. Maybe being in mid air erased my mind.
With UW, I haven’t been able to come to a stop and then continue, like with a unicycle before starting to hop. As you stand on the pedals which are attached to the UW wheel, you are basically in full control. With a BC wheel or a skateboard at that you aren’t really. I also have a long board and as long as I can keep it in motion, it won’t slide away under me, though just standing on it, it certainly might throw me off.
I don’t know how twitchy a BC wheel is, but isn’t it possible to stand on it with one foot and just like with a kick scooter, go a few steps to get it in motion and then put your other foot on?
It is very likely that it just seems easy in my head, but once I get it, it will be very frustrating.
Btw with @pierrox’ help I just ordered it from a French Circus website. Hopefully it will arrive just before I travel to DK next week.
You bought a new BC wheel?
You go to DK to get the Michelin costume 
My short answer is “no”. I asked my son, and he said “impossible” (just to make sure my lack of ability didn’t affect my answer). Like the UW, if only one foot is placed on one pedal, the BC wheel leans to that side and the top of the tire rests on your calf. Equal pressure needs to be applied to each foot rest, in order for the BC wheel to stand up vertically.
I have wondered if someone could get the BC wheel rolling on its own, and then run from behind and jump onto the BW wheel footrests at the same time (similar to what we’ve seen riders do on the UW).
After watching the video that @Setonix posted, I realize that my body position on the BC wheel definitely needs to change. In short, I need to bend my knees more. Let’s see how much that helps…
Bending your knees makes it very heavy. I should also do that more with UW. Then the wheel stays centered more, but as it is already tiring, I tend to let the wheel hang against my leg, which also gives me balance. A BC wheel will be very different and letting it hang against my leg, means it will act as a brake.
I reckon the mounting is just as difficult as with a UW. Initially you stand bent down to hold the wheel and then you need to get up-right and find your balance along the way.
The French shop also has 24" BC wheels, but I figured a 20" would be easier… maybe. I have no clue.
