So I’m not sure I understand the question…
Are you burned out or is the unicycle wearing out?
I have yet to wear out a unicycle, but then I don’t keep them long
But seriously, I do have parts that have many rides on them and I have yet to wear them out, even two year old pedals which are “disposable”.
I’ve broke a few things, was going through brakes for a while, but seem to have that worked out, have wore out some seat foam and put holes in covers, but even that sort of thing is typical wear stuff.
If you’re asking about the practicality of riding a 36er as a daily commuter, I know of many people who use a 36er for long distance touring and commuting.
Personally, I love my 36er BUT it is a lot of work spinning that big wheel, so there are times (now for instance) when I feel that it takes more energy to ride the 36er the same distance as it takes to ride a 29er.
I think it has a lot to do with relative rotational weight:
Compare two similar tire types with similar construction:
29" Ardent 2.25 EXO Tire 745gm, ~91" Circumference, ~8.2gm per inch
36" TODD 2.25 Tire 1500gm, ~113" Circumerference, ~13.3gm per inch
In order to make the 36" tire equal to the 29" Ardent, you would need to reduce the 36" tire by nearly 600gm, to ~950gm.
Keeping in mind that rotational weight is a significant factor in maintaining wheel speed, I think this is the “500# gorilla” in the room.
I have been riding a TODD tire on my 36er for a while now, I like the tire in all ways, so I hadn’t really thought of it as “heavy” until I rode it back to back with my 32" Maxxis Advantage Silkworm “frankentire” which weighs in a ~650gm.
Though the TODD tire rides better than the Advantage due the difference in casing design; the Advantage is an ultralight casing, the Advantage is significantly easier to ride over time.
The difference is so significant that I am going to build a frankentire for my 36er, an Advantage EXO or Ardent EXO.
I believe the OP Is riding a TA, which weighs >2000gm!!
