Good little unicycle, great price!
Bought this unicycle for my 11 y.o. son. Had some trepidation in picking 20" vs 24" wheel. Glad we picked this size. He's tall but friends all recommended starting off on a 20". I now agree. We adjusted the seat as low as possible without the bar touching the wheel. Assembly was fairly easy, but no instructions were included. Be sure to note the left (L) and right (R) pedals and install them on correct sides. Otherwise they will twist off when riding. They screw onto crank arms. If you're short, you may need to hacksaw off some of the pipe the seat attaches to. We just managed with the shortest setting. Friends with unicycles suggested duct taping the seat for protection as the cycle falls a lot when a beginner is starting off. Seems a good quality cycle and a great beginner one. Would recommend to others. It took about 10 days for my son to learn. Helpful videos on learning to ride unicycle on uTube.

Had it a week
Actually, it might deserve a 5 star rating. I'm still afraid to just hold on to the counter top, not holding on to a chair w/ other hand. Watch the videos at YouTube. I think they're good.
----------------------------
When it came (quite quickly), I sprayed the whole thing w/ a silicone lubricant. (It dried, and I think it'll act like a wax job). I assembled it easily. In the past, I played w/ a lot of bikes, so it was all very obvious, as to assembling the thing. We all have different backgrounds, so maybe it would confuse some people. There are no instructions. Understand that the left hand pedal must go on the left side. This is so that when you pedal, it will tend to tighten that pedal( a bit). If they didn't make the pedals that way, you might ride the bike and literally unscrew the pedal. That wouldn't be good. All bikes are made that way. For the left pedal, righty-tighty/lefty loosy is reversed. Look at the pedals. Somewhere, one pedal has an "R" on it, the other, an...
This Beginner Is Completely Satisfied
I'm extremely pleased with this purchase. The primary reason I decided to learn to ride a unicycle is to help combat one of the preventable effects of aging, now that I'm in my early fifties. I've noticed that some older people seem to start losing their sense of balance, and I can't think of any better exercise to prevent or even reverse that loss than unicycle riding.

The product assembled quite easily due to the simplicity of a unicycle, and all necessary parts were included and correct. Unfortunately, the amount of torque needed to tighten the seat clamp in order to keep the seat from twisting off-center would seem to hinder quick readjustment to accommodate different-height riders, but for me that is just a good excuse not to have to share my unicycle ;-)

I've been learning to ride in my apartment on light tan carpet, and there are no signs of any black marks from the tires, although once I take it on the street it will have to be an "outdoor only"...
