hmmm...I would think a better description would be:

CX = Childs
LX = Learner
DX = Deluxe
AX = Aluminum
TX = Tall (giraffe)

Well, their price for the LX seems reasonable, but you can usually find
a better price for the DX on eBay.

I learned on a sun, it's decent I guess. Just remember, you get what you
pay for. So don't expect it to be your last unicycle.

NOW you tell me! This weekend I fractured a wrist bone and got 7
stitches at base of pinky finger going down a steep (for me) muni
trail.

I wouldn't wast any money on a Sun.

Unimog rode off a few curbs and then did a sharp turn on his 29" and
tacoed the wheel.

I'd get the Torker 20" then learn to ride, then some freestyle and
light trials (no drops over three curbs w/ your weight). Start saving
your money and when you discover the type of uni you want to do most
get the best splined uni you can afford (the best is 'KH'
(http://www.krisholm.com/english/products/)). If you want to to do
trials more get one of those (19") or muni then a 24", 26+" is better
for XC trails and more experienced riders.

That is a good deal on a good learner.

To see what can be done on a LX check out Reef's (The.Mars.Volta)

I think you should get the Torker LX in 20". It seems like a pretty
good uni.

Don’t worry – you won’t hurt yourself when you are
learning. (That comes later!) For your first 10-20 hours,
you’ll be just getting the hang of riding around on the flat. You
won’t fall to the ground – when you lose balance, the wheel
just shoots away from under you, and you are left standing, unharmed
(or maybe just a little tumble).

So I disagree with skilewis74 – when you are first learning you
don’t need helmet, or even pads. As you get better, and can do
more, that’s when you should put the protection on.

And hey – you’re from Hong Kong! Look us up when you come
back – www.unihk.org. We play unicycle hockey.
