I remembered seeing those in a catalog and I had to go look for
it. It is Wireless, for friends and fans for public radio. They have a site, http://www.wirelesstoo.com/ for the catalog, the page with the scooters and
unicycle is, http://www.wirelesstoo.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ParseDHC?merchan-
t_rn=1&str=unicycle&Go_Button.x=20&Go_ Button.y=18 this long site address is
all on one line, but when I tested it this way it worked.
Here is their description:
“Unicycle Unicycling is an outstanding way to develop balance, coordination,
self-confidence—plus, it’s a total blast. Our unicycle has steel forks and
shafts, inflatable rubber tire, cotterless crank, and quick-lock adjustable
seat. For ages 11 and up; supports up to 154 lb. 24” high; comes with a stand
for upright storage and display. Rush delivery, express delivery, and gift box
not available."
It looks about like the Juggle Bugs at unicycle source. I don’t have a clue as
to the 24" high thing.
The price is $79.00 Check out their site.

Weird, I thought I posted a followup earlier, but now I don’t find it…
Anyway, this unit looks exactly like the same unicycle that I bought for
my kids from the JC Penny catalog for $39.95. It’s still there, just go
to www.jcpenny.com and type “unicycle” into the search box at the top of
the window.
It’s not the same as a Jugglebug.
