    I have a new Unicycle bought for me an xmas present. Dont think its a
    recognised make - imported from Germany.

    After advise in another thread i have the pedals and crank tightened
    correctly. However, now when i mount i can feel the pedals move
    although the wheel remains stationary.

    Is this usual, i get the feeling it is getting worse and may be
    happening when i am cycling (or trying to cycle).

    Is there anyway i can correct this. It doesn't look as if there is
    anything i can tighten.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    how far do they move? It sounds like you have the same problem i did. Is
    there a key way in the hub that the hub slides into? pics? i think we
    need more info. Is it splined?

    I had this same problem with a sun I bought through UDC. I sent it back
    and they refunded my money, less shipping. If the resistance is fairly
    consistent but you can turn the pedals without turning the rim, my
    guess it is a hub that is press-fit onto the axle and it was not
    pressed on tightly enough. My advice from there is simply to return
    it, if possible.
