Unicycling Backpack

cyberpunk said:

*Okay alot of people are ganna think i'm crazy, but has anyone found a
good skateboarding/snowboarding backpack that you can strap a 20" uni
into?, i'm looking for something that you can strap it securly on the
back, with the wheel pointing up, where the cranks rest below the top
of the bag to keep them out of your back.*

Not crazy at all, but perhaps another "azy" word. By using the Search
feature in the top right, I was able to very quickly find this thread,
which should provide the answers you seek:

Well wow, I didn't even think of searching (usualy I do before asking)
but I figured that this was such an "azy" That I didn't even bother.

Thanks ^^

I've wanted to wear my trials on my back. With a pack like that, I can
hop onto my coker and get to places where I want to ride, then get to it
on the trials.

Yay!

I hope you know that you'll never get another "Where's your other
wheel?".

I found this bag

http://tinyurl.com/96lsw

I'm thinking I can use that shovel holder from the previous post

http://tinyurl.com/yjbn

In cordinence with the posted backpack, to strap a uni on. the backpack
also comes with a tool flap for unicycle tools ect. I'm thinking I can
shave my post down more so I can sink it into the frame down to the
seat, and if it gets annoying I could even romove the peddal that sticks
into my back. It would be a little annoying to put my uni back together
but yeah, what you guys think?

Problem?

I hate that. I'm alright with something original, I hear that one a
lot.

I'm about to start giving prizes to the 5th person to say that to me
each day... or should that be each hour? Hmmm...

I use one of these:

It's a real minimalist item, I use it to carry my chainsaw or my Muni.
Probably not the most comfortable, but you cannot beat the weight!!

Canmore

I'd like to see a photo of you with a muni on your back. I want to see
how that little pack works.

It does have a waist strap, so it might work well for carrying a uni
while you're riding a bigger uni. 🙂

You're not crazy at all. I recommend a snowboard pack like 'the Arcteryx
M20' (http://www.arcteryx.com/product.aspx?prod=1356) which we used very
successfully in Bhutan.

I found this bag, I'm thinking it would be pretty good for carrying a
uni on your back with. What you guys think?

(Preferably comments from someone that HAS straped a uni on a backpack,
because i'm sure there are things that would come up durring the actuall
proccess)

i often strap my 20in to my back when rideing my coker and i have found
that the bigist problem is the unicycle shifting so all those straps
look like they would work great

I use a back pack from time to time. Its nothing special but it gets the
job done. Just two straps too. :

I look pissy cause im riding a midget mountain bike and the photographer
is making fun of me for it. Also please ignore my bike lock tangled up
in my reeder handle.

The pedal that is facing towards me when im wearing the pack fits
somewhere under my arm pit (out of the way) so thats not a problem. When
i have my 20 on the pack, the pedal is closer to my body but still not
close enough to rub or bump me.

The bag itself is stiff where it touches your back so I dont feel the
crank through it. If you get a softer bag, Im sure putting a sweatshirt
in there would solve the problem of cranks jabbing through.

Thats about it. Just grab a backpack and try it.
