How do you say the unicyclist in spanish?

Probably the most correct you can get is 'monociclista.' Reason: While 'monociclista' is not in the DICCIONARIO DE LA LENGUA ESPAÑOLA, both the word 'monociclo' (unicycle) and 'ciclista' (bicyclist) are. (Actually, 'monociclo' is just now being considered for the 23rd edition which is being readied for future publication.) I believe 'mono' and 'ciclista' constitute a fair conjoining of suffix and root word. I suppose the main question that needs to be answered is, if you used the word, would you be understood? Given the proper context, I believe you would be clearly understood if you said monociclista to mean unicyclist... you may even be thought a bit avant-garde.
