Serious wtfage on this one. I don’t get it. This looks like your standard no-brand Chinese unicycle with the awesome green and yellow tire, and it’s listed for US$444.90.

Who in their right mind would pay over four hundred bucks for this? I especially love the totally-not-photoshopped background.

I found the very same uni on my local Craigslist for $25 (which I’m probably buying just because I keep buying unicycles).

Also, anybody else who browses ebay/aliexpress really frustrated by constantly seeing these stupid things?

They’re always advertised as “self balancing unicycles” and always show up in front of actual unicycles. But… they have two wheels… and no seat… and aren’t unicycles. :angry:

But it’s an adjustable cycling bike bicycle cycle! HOLY CRAP! That’s lots of cycles… I’ve seen those on amazon for 50$ haha.

So, remember how I said I found one of these adjustable cycling bike bicycle cycles for sale on Craigslist? Well, of course I had to go try to haggle for it. The guy wanted $50 for it but I told him $25 or nothing. He said $30 was his lowest he could go, and I said goodbye.

A hour later $25 seemed more appealing to him, so now I’m the proud owner of a bonafide adjustable cycling bike bicycle cycle. :stuck_out_tongue:

This is obviously the very same unicycle-shaped-object as featured in the eBay post I linked, right down to the bizarre and awesome yellow/green tire. Looks like I just saved myself $419.90. :roll_eyes:

I was quite surprised when I rode it from my car to my office door this morning without dying. I even idled on it and the cranks didn’t snap in half.

Later tonight I’m going to take it apart and really document everything that goes into one of these babies, and then write up a review on them. Obviously people are buying them, so it might be a good idea to dissect one and see exactly what you’re getting for $50 on eBay/AliExpress/Amazon.

I actually had one of those as my first uni. They’re tough enough to learn on but not much else. The cranks and saddle eventually broke on mine after another person learned on it.

For some reason I have this masochistic desire to upgrade this thing. Build up a quality rim with ISIS hub/cranks, but still transfer the ridiculous multicolored tire. And then probably spraypaint the whole thing a metallic purple. :smiley:

I have serious issues.

Better idea: Wait until Bri decides to sell another pink/purple wheel.

I’m already selling!! Lol

Good deal on a cheap learner

This is actually a pretty good deal, if you live in the SoCal area.

Troxel!

A real live Troxel for sale! Seeing the pictures brings johnfoss’s miserable beginner stories to life. Clearly not worth $50, but worth a look, perhaps. Sidd, can you work your picture injecting magic?

Someone needs to start a unicycle history museum, where things like this can be preserved …

John Foss pretty much is a unicycle history museum afaik.
