After my first training month on a 24", I am considering to take a step(!)
further (especially because I plan to commute with it as often as possible) by
finding a bigger wheel and/or adding gears to the unibike. The problem is that
for regular unibike(e.g non-giraffe) there are no commercial unibike with gears
you could change. Does anyone know where it is possible to find that kind of
gears/how it is possible to adapt it to a regular unibike? I was also wondering
what different benefits would come from a) a bigger wheel(28" or cocker,
typically), b) a 24" with a gear ratio and c) the bigger with a gear ratio(this
one I do not consider it at the time, but I was wondering… )
Ideas/suggestions anyone?
TIA

Get a Coker if you want to commute/go far/go fast - don’t waste time
fooling around with gears & chains.
‘Unibike’ doesn’t sound good in English. Uni=one and Bi=two. Just call it a
cycle, a uni or a unicycle.
Good luck,
Nathan
