  3. You could try to make your pegs out of the frame, and use the wheel
    bearings for that. But this may not be worth it. Unicycle frame/bearing
    units aren't made to resist any kind of angular force being applied to
    them. In other words, imagine it's a Schwinn. You've cut off the frame
    and bent it 90 degrees to make a peg. But when you stand on the pegs,
    they just tilt downward because the bearings and the way they attach
    have no resistance to that kind of force.

    Why kill a unicycle? A BC wheel is a *bicycle* wheel everybody! It's a
    *front wheel*. All you need is a plain old (common, cheap) bike axle and
    a pair of pegs. The pegs are the only part you have to actually make.
