Unicycles evolved from early bicycles in the 19th century pennyfarthing bikes, or "ordinary bikes," that had one big wheel in the front and a smaller wheel in the back. Often, riders would find themselves on the front wheel only and realized that they could actually ride on one wheel alone. Who actually invented the first official unicycle is not known.
One contributor says that his grandfather, William Newhouse, invented the unicycle in 1903, but there is no other information available to corroborate that claim at this point.
No one knows for sure
apparently someone forgot to add back to a penny farthing
