Unicycle vs. bicycle

Unicycle vs. bicycle

Advantages of an unicycle

  • All the benefits of a fixed-gear bicycle
    • Fun: the "direct-drive" (pedal is locked to wheel rotation) gives a feeling of connection and unity with the vehicle
    • can backpedal to go backwards
    • make you a better cyclist, supposedly
  • Unlike a fixed-gear bicycle, has no chain that can maim your feet
  • Trains your balance
    • Maybe posture too
  • Compact
    • No more disassembling your bike to bring it aboard a train
    • Easy to store indoors to protect from water & sun
  • Conversation starter; it's the good kind of weird
