hello can anyone tell me if i should cut about how many inches off a torker lx unistar
i just bought a torker lx and today i just recieved it but i tryed it and it was kinda high because i can only reach the pedal a lil bit
i have a 20" unicycle and it ussually says that 20" min requirement is 28" inside leg and i have a shoe that is 1" with a inside leg of 27" just how many inches you think i should cut off the unicycle without bending my knee when on the unicycle when you unicycle can you just ride a unicycle that is 2" less cut off i was thinking of going 2" cut off but i dont know how much so i dont bend my knee when riding and stressing my legs i ment tired
thanks for your time reading this

Hi welcome to the forums! If the seat post is too high then it is best to cut it down, other wise you can’t ride it! Cut off like an inch at a time until it is the right hight. Just use a hack saw and a file to cut it, not hard really.
You don’t want the seat too low because it makes learning much harder, you must be able to touch the floor with your foot really (if you have a 20") much like you would with a bike. That way you don’t straighten your leg completely, but it isn’t too short.
the leg that is on the bottom pedal should be only slightly bent. but if you have a hard time reaching the bottom pedal, i would start by cutting about an inch off. if that is still too high, cut it in half inch increments. just make sure you cut the seat post and not the frame.
As far as actually cutting the seat post, I use a pipe cutter. They make a nice square cut and usually don’t need to be filed on much to make them look nice.
