Wheel Size

The most common wheel size on standard unicycles are 20" & 24".
  • 20 " wheels are used mainly by people who travel a lot with their cycle or perform in small stage areas and still want to have a lot of pedal action.
  • 24" wheels are the choice of people who ride outside and want to cover any kind of distance and still want to be able to do tricks.
  • 26" and larger wheel sizes are mainly used for distance riding & road races
  • 18" and smaller wheel sizes are mostly used for special effects (i.e. clowns) and small children.
