uni

[lucky_8]

what uni would be best for a 20 mile ride or longer. it would be on the
road. I waqs thinking about a 29" touring unicycle but the coker goes
faster so it would be easier to go on.

you dont *need* a coker for distance...some people do 20miles on a
24"... i would suggest a 29er if money is tight..its just as good in my
opinion just a little slower

Don't compromise. Get a coker.

Read up on threads about 29" vs. Coker. There IS no substitute, my
friend.

Don't worry about it. Get the 29er if you've not got the money for the
coker.

They're both fast enough to ride 20 miles no problems. You might find
you don't really like distance in which case the coker is a very large
and pointless waste of space, whilst the 29er can be used sensibly for
muni and is handier just for getting round town.

Having said that, if I was to ride 20 miles tomorrow, I'd use the coker
every time.

SUBJECT LINE POLICE:

That should have been your subject line. The subject should tell us the
subject, so we know if we're interested to read the thread.

For distance riding, if you plan to do lots of distance, not just a big
ride here & there, I definitely recommend saving up for the Coker. If
you want something more flexible (a little more maneuverable, fits
better in cars, can be ridden on more trails), the 29er will work but
will always be slower.

Nice trick, using a nebulous and very nodescript title to get people to
look at a subject that's been discussed, oh, about a hundred times in
the last year. I usually don't rag on people about "using the search
button" but in this case I'll make an exception. The "Coker vs. 29er"
debate has been beaten to death around here.
