Bike Feature: Torker Unicycles

In the last couple years we've seen a marked increase in the number of unicycles we've sold. More and more folks are getting into this crazy cycling sub-sport. Full disclaimer: Yours Truly has made it across the length of the shop floor on a unicycle exactly once, and most of that was just a matter of somehow staying up while wildly flailing about with absolutely zero technique, but I still think it`s cool.

At any rate, we try to always keep a few unicycles in stock, including this Torker 20 inch LX model. For just $150 the price shouldn't keep you from trying it out. Unfortunately no amount of money can buy the skill required to competently ride a unicycle - that just takes practice.

All Torker unicycles are height-adjustable, and there are different models to suit different riding styles. Feel free to ask us about what model might best suit your needs.
