I had somewhat the opposite problem. I have a 26" unicycle that came
with 127mm cranks. Since I'm still in the process of learning to ride
I had been struggling with this unicycle. It seems "touchy", by which
I mean that I had trouble keeping a steady speed, I'd either be jumping
forward or slowing down too suddenly. I reasoned that at least until I
am a better rider longer cranks would even out my jerky responses.
Sure enough! I got 152mm cranks and now I not only can ride around the
block more smoothly, I can also freemount this thing, (which before was
immensely difficult).
