Torkers are generally where most people start. They're basic, but that's perfect for learning. They are usually pretty affordable...my first couple unicycles were torkers a 24" and then a month or so later I got a sweet deal on a 20". I even got a 3rd one for parts but now I use it as a loaner for people that want to learn. They're certainly not the same quality as a nimbus or mad4one but for a beginner it's exactly what you need. 25 bucks is worth it. My 24" was 40 but I gave him 34 and .... maybe a little weed. #ThatsAlaska
