Post a picture of your unicycle(s)

I detailed a bit of the handling characteristics in the Today I… thread, though now that I’ve had some saddle time on it I can further elaborate :slightly_smiling_face:

I was worried at first that it would handle funny due to its non-standard design, but for me at least I find it rides pretty normally (Apart from being much closer to the ground than a 36er). Tight turns are still possible despite the lower pedal clearance, maybe just don’t try to make fast tight turns to keep the lean in check :sweat_smile: No pedal strikes so far!

In the other thread I also speculated that UPDs might be more risky being that it’s lower. After a few at-speed UPDs, I’m leaning towards it being not as much of an issue as I thought :thinking: I was still able to land on my feet and outrun them thankfully. I still expect the chances of having a UPD to be higher than riding my 36er, however, being it’s a smaller wheel size and thus more prone to road irregularities.

More generally, I’m really enjoying the Huni Rex so far despite it not quite being at it’s full potential yet :cowboy_hat_face: Biggest thing I still need is a longer seat post; I’ve strained my legs a bit riding it with the saddle a little too low. But once I get the longer post, a brake, and a bar on it, I think I’ll feel pretty comfortable doing some proper long rides on it.
