Welcome to the forum. I’m new to unicycling also and have gotten some good help here. I posted a short video and got some good feedback on how to improve my riding and it has helped a lot. That thread can be found at http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72423

If you could do the same you could probably get some good suggestions on how to improve your riding.

Good luck.

The worst part of your uni, I think, is that it probably does have cotter pins.
if there’s a hole in the side by the axle with a pin going through it like this:

You probably need a new uni. If there’s just a bolt going directly into a square axle like this:

then you might want a new unicycle anyways, but it’s not as urgent as you won’t have to worry about cotter pins shearing and all that.

Don’t worry about it until you either get better or break it, though.
Also, that seat might get uncomfortable fairly quickly.

thanks! yeah its a pretty vintage cycle, the seat is wearing away from the bottom, but its so nostalgic lol.

Mine too.

Anyways, just practice a little bit. Everything from when you first learned will quickly come back to you, and hopefully you will start to like street or trials. There not many girls out there who do trials and street. You could help push the part along.

But yeah, welcome to the forums. You can ask any question about anything here, but please search before doing so. For the most part, your question has been asked and answered at least 10 times already but if you still are having troubles, then feel free to bump an older thread or create your own.

Meeep i didnt mean to be repetitive, but i’ll do more searching next time. the problem riding in my streets, is that i live in a suburban small town, where it is hilly, and always people out and about. i feel somewhat insecure, maybe because so many people have told me to join a circus whatevs, they can suck it.

@skrobo

pretty much covered… its funny, i have one of those unicycles (20") sitting right behind me, and i was about to make a post about where to get the tires for it, yours is universal though, you can get any 24" tire when you need a new one.

oh cool, i had no idea! i sort of enjoy my old rusty spokes, and if its not broke don’t fix it right? i’ll definitely keep that in mind if i need a new tire, i had no idea about it being universal. thanks!

welcome to here!
I had never been to Long Island before my last trip to NY, but I made a point to travel out there and meet up with some riders in Hicksville. Adam Cohen ( http://www.just1wheel.com/ ) and one of his friends picked me up from the LIR station and brought me to a nice long section of the Greenbelt trail where I had a great time and fractured my 4th metacarpal going off of a drop. I would suggest getting in touch with him; he knows a lot of unicyclists.
