Monocycle?

Just saw this on ebay…

Monocycle

Not exactly a monocycle, but close… just watch out for that shipping.

Re: Monocycle?

It looks to me as if it was built as a proper Monocycle and the person could
not ride it so they have added stabilisers! What is interesting is the rear
stabilisers, I am reasonably certain, would prevent any steering!

Continuing on this route, does anybody have some sort of general guidelines for building a monocycle from existing parts? Say, a bicycle with 20" wheels… maybe remove the front forks, extend the frame front and back to hold the big wheel… this kind of information. I have always thought it would be fun to have such a contraption… (especially if it had an air tire! ) .oO(right)
