Default Recommended Muni to Buy

Hi, I'm thinking about buying a mountain unicyle. I have a
budget of $400. Also, I have never owned a mountain unicycle
but I have done some muni on my Yuni trials unicycle. (Up
intil recentley I was too small to fit on a 24") I am
looking for a muni that would last me awhile, so splined hub
is a plus but is not nessecary. I have been looking at the
Yuni, Kris Holm, Onza, and Torker on unicycle.com. Does
anyone have any reccomendations. Thanks.

in this day of 'cheap' splined hubs, you really should go
with a splined setup. If not for the strength, then the ease
of maintenance.

The Yuni Muni seems to be a popular unicycle around here,
it's certainly worth the money (I don't have one, but have
seen the threads here)

Thanks. I own a Yuni trials and I like it a lot. Also the
Torker is very cheap for a unicycle with a splined hub.
Is the hub as good as other splined hubs such as the one
on the Onza?

Sorry Sofa, The 29er review is on this site, but I will try
to write a review or two just out of gratitude. Anybody who
sets up a site like that gets a big thank you from me.

Thanks but I don't think that I'll fit on a 29er, I'm still
a little short.

buy a KH wheelset and then a Yuni frame and build up from
there. You get a pretty sturdy uni for cheaper than most
