    I'm glad you added the seat. I was gonna suggest a fender so that when your feet slip off the pegs your nuts don't get sucked between the forks and ripped off. I've read that those powered unicycles are a lot easier to ride because of the suspended foot platforms. It supposedly makes it easier to maintain your center of gravity just slightly in front of the axle. That and they have a gyroscope I believe. Imagine how much fun a portable dirtbike unicycle would be? You can throw a couple in the trunk or the back of a ute and go trail riding with a friend. I look forward to you mastering this
