I have heard you can use moped tubes for trials unis. Could you also throw on a moped tire and make a kickin’ street uni? If not, what size moped tube should be used?
i doubt a moped tire would bouce enough. nor would it fit on a trials rim. the moped tube is super heavy duty and helps with folding. i should look into it as i’m big and fold a lot.
im not sure about a moped tire
(i love mopeds)…anyways
yesturday i was thinking about how people ramp dirtbikes 2 incredible hieghts and there rims dont bend and there tires dont go flat
i was thinking that a dirt bike with added bearings would make great for muni or trials
but then again i could be loony
It would be ridiculously heavy though. The 3" downhill bike tyres are heavy enough.

The reason a lot of dirtbikes don’t bend rims or have soft tyres is because they have suspension.
for a unicycle the only suspension is the tyre so I don’t think that using a dirt bike tyre would be much use.
