- Hi. I'd like to learn to ride a unicycle, but I'm having one helluva
- time finding a distributor for them here in Canada. I live in
- Vancouver, and the only one available is a real cheap-quality Norco.
-
- I think I may be able to get a Miyata via mail-order from California
- for around US$135 (plus an arm and a leg for UPS to Canada). I think
- it's a 24" wheel. Does anyone have anything good to say about a
- Miyata unicycle? Or, better yet, can any suggest a better source for
- me?
-
- Much appreciated.

- Oh, as an aside, (without opening up a can of worms) is it typical for
- people to learn on a 20" or 24" unicycle? I just wanna sort of goof
- around on the thing. I'm 5'11", 175lbs, and my BIcycle skills are
- good (I race). Thanx.
