From what I've heard (not owning one myself), the Semcycle XL long neck
is the preferred freestyle frame. Because it has a longer neck, the
seat post clamp is higher, so won't hit your legs as often. There was a
discussion about this before; you might be able to find the thread with
the search function.
Good luck!

Yo!
The best frame for freestyle is definetly the Wyganowski. Yes, it is
expensive but lasts a LONG time and holds up really well for advanced
freestyle tricks. The second choice would be a Miyata, quality. I f
you want the longer post, I've heard Semcycle XLs work good. But if you
want a long time investment, the Wyganowski is the way to go.

As long as you don't outgrow the frame, eh? :)

Ryan's not *that* short. You don't need the seat clamp to be all the way
up under the seat, so growing is not a problem. If you wanted to lenghen
the frame you could probably send it back to Wyganowski for an upgrade.
Since the things don't come in chrome ( :mad: ), repainting is probably
not too hard.

Mine will eventually make the trip to the plater.

How important is the frame-tire clearance????

I mean... i know that a flat crown is essential but...

What is more important...?


1.- Long neck

2.- Little frame- tire clearance

3.- Others

Check out what they're riding on One Wheel No Limit (everything under
the sun). What's more important is:

1. Practice
2. Practice
3. Practice

Ryan's Grandma and Mom told me he spends 6 hours a day unicycling.
