That guy is a beast. Regularly going up trails that I walk my bike up without any brakes, just two pedals and a wheel

You can see he's got a disc brake on there for controlling descents. Still fucking impressive

There's typically a lever under the front of the seat

I've seen this guy before. I had to stop biking and watch because I was just amazed that someone unicycling the wiss.

I couldn't believe how well he was navigating the trail I was on. A lot of rocks!

Man that's rad. I know a guy who used to do shit like this. He moved out west and does even crazier shit now. Some people are just inherently awesome and can't help but flex.

Nah, he got busted by the cops too many times for unicycling in NYC, so now he does his weirdness in the desert. He's one of the folks for whom burning man is dead, they need weirder shit. Absolutely wish I could sustain his dedication to being a freak for even a couple weeks.

I used to work with a guy who would sometimes go around Boston on a unicycle playing an accordian while dressed as Darth Vader.

Ok so im a dummy i bike a lot but i dont know how they fuckin work. It looks like the homie in the pic has a disc brake? What in the world is the mechanism lol

There's a brake lever under the seat you can use to help control speed. It's just like a fixed gear where if the wheel is rotating, so are your legs, so the brake helps manage downhills.
