Greetings all,
Now that my daughter has gotten quite good at riding her unicycle she wants
now to venture off road with me. I offered to put a knobby on her 20" Torker
for her but after looking at it I’m not so sure that a knobby will fit. She
weighs 75-80 lbs. What do you folks recommend that I do for a unicycle for
her without spending a ton?

Try a cheap knobby from a discount store like Wal Mart. This way you’ll get
an idea of what will fit. Or for a little bit money but a lot more accuracy,
go to a bike shop and bring the uni. They should be able to inflate tires
(or already have inflated ones) to see if they will be too big or not.
You can also ride trails on a street tire and still have lots of fun. But if
it’s wet a lot, go for the knobby.
Good luck,
