Runt Bike
I've been thinking of buying a runt bike for a while now. I'd rather have a high wheel - but I can't afford one right now ($1,000+). I already have a unicycle for parades or ride-around; but figure a runt bike would make a nice prop for street festivals or festival in the park type deals.
Anyone ever ride one? I've seen a couple variety of bikes for around $100...

I tried to ride one once (in non-clown clothes and shoes) and just about killed myself and those around me. I found it really hard to ride. If you can ride it, I think it would be great!

We have two of them. They never fail to draw attention at a parade!
I bought the first one on EBay for 25.00 plus shipping. I bought the second one at a yard sale ,two doors down for ten bucks  Go figure.

There is a gentleman here is town that makes custom bikes as a hobby. I have seen a number of them in parades around here. The gentleman is actually a relative of Miss Priss. I have his information around here somewhere.

Hmm, I'll check ebay first then and wait it out. Not something I'm dying to have, but I'd grab one for $25 for sure...

I've got two of them. Paid 50 euro for them. They are great, as well for yourself as for the children (I let children do who is the quickest on them). Don't have any problem riding on them, you just have to be very carefull with bumbs in the road because they fall over to the front quiet easily.
Of topic but also interesting are pedalo-go and funwheels. Just bought a few of them. Going to take them with me this weekend and see what the children think of them
