Questions about some uni parts...

I'm considering getting the Primo The Wall 20" tire (
http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=299 ) and also the
United Delux Non-Marking Pedals (
http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=217 ) for my Nimbus X.
My first question is, are they good coices for pedals and a tire for
freestyle? My second question, would the Primo tire fit my Nimbus? If
so, what size: 1.85 or 2.1? If they both fit, which one would be best
for freestyle? Finally, if the pedals aren't the best, what pedals
would be good? Remember it's freestyle, not trials or MUni, so I don't
need pins. Thanks a bunch!

The Wall is an excellent outdoors freestyle tire. Since you are a small
guy, you might try the smaller one first so you have less mass in the
wheel. Both sizes will fit your uni just fine.

I like the 'Miyata freestyle pedals'
(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=212). They are also
non-marking, but have a little better grip IMHO.

The United Deluxe pedals are good for indoor freestyle. But they are
not so good for outside riding. They don't have much grip at all. Get
any dirt on the pedal or on your shoe and your feet will be sliding all
over on the pedal. If you plan to ride indoors they're good. Outdoors
they're bad.

These 'Miyata freestyle pedals' (http://tinyurl.com/af5ms) if you can
find them in the US. I got a pair at a convention. Just enough grip
without being too much for freestyle.

Otherwise the Miyata pedals that U-Turn linked to are good.

on the subject of pedals, ive had really good luck with the stock pastic
ones that came on my torker dx. for freestyle they are a good combo of
grip when you want it and release when needed.

they are Wellgo's but i dont know what kind.

wait a minute, did i just posted in a Tyler thread?

Those pedals you mentioned look nice, but I can only live with a black
pedal... I'm too picky aren't I!!! Ok, I'm going to get the Primo
tire, but now I need to know what color! I'm pretty sure you know what
my uni looks like, but if not here is a link to a pic:
