I bought this unicycle for my 12 year old son after he grew out of his Torker CX 16" unicycle. The LX appears to have slightly better construction than the CX, although the CX is a solid bike too.

Note that some reviews of 20" unicycles claim they were too big for their small children. Be aware that you may need to trim the seat post with a hacksaw or sawzall for some kids. My son is about 4'10 and I needed to trim off a few inches, but the 20" unicycle is the right size for him. Buy the right unicycle for you kid based on the wheel size, and not by the height of the seat as delivered.

I purchased this unicycle in hopes to learn something new and improve my balance as well as work on my core. It is proving to be lots of fun yet a little challenging due to my own balance issues. The only problem I have with this unicycle is that the inseem measurements taken prior to purchase to assure I bought the correct cycle proved inaccurate. The seat post is to high and I have to wear my thick sneakers just to touch the pedals. I have to get the seat cut down about an inch before I attempt it again. I have had fun with it though, and my 192 lb body fits just fine on this unicycle. I love it and can't wait to see if my balance improves once I can touch the pedals and have more control....

Shortly after i purchased this unicycle the crank broke. I guess its to be expected though. We did have to cut down the seat. Overall i really am happy with my buy. Good price and easy to assemble as well.

The unicycle seems sturdy and can take my weight (240LB). I like the design of it. My only complaint is the stand. I really don't like it's design. Once I figured out how to properly use the stand, I scratched the paint on the unicycle. ::sigh::
