30'S UNICYCLE?

[Rat Rod]

Picked this thing up today...not sure if it's homemade or factory. 24" wheel and a Persons saddle. I'm guessing it's from the 30's. Anyone ever see one like this before?

Hard to tell a year, but looks like 20's-30's. The hayday of the circus, it might have been in a big show.

I saw a old Schwinn one on c/l the other day . Can we get a few pics with you riding it . [emoji106]

It's fitting that the frame is crutch shaped, it's what I'd need if I tried riding one.

Side note - last year I went to a mnt. Bike fat tire fest & there was a guy riding a fat tire unicycle on the trail up & down some gnarly hills it was mind blowing !

Extreme unicycle challenge

Seriously, I saw that on a tv show a few years ago. Was an X games type deal, apparently it was popular for a while.

Cotter crank, broken saddle, unicycle. The perfect trifecta of injury and pain.

Looks like a fairly modern welding technique of solid rod construction. Is it as heavy as it looks?
I would guess 50's up, hand made-- possibly using an older tricycle front wheel.

Yep....pretty heavy and solid as a rock.

Front wheel is a 24".

Add hard and heavy to my previous list. Careful, you could put an eye out with that thing.

Sucker's oxy welded. I've studied enough old school books to see that. I bet there's no give at all.
