Custom 36er mountain bike have been floating around for a few years now. Those who have ridden them on singletrack often come back saying something along the lines of "it rolls nice, but climbing is impossible." For a mountain bike application, at least, the consensus seems to be that it isn't really practical. Wheel strength and wheel weight seem to make it difficult to justify.

Also try finding a tube at your LBS!

Need one of those with a bike rack holding the OP's pictured bike.

Those bikes make everyone look like that little guy from The Princess Bride who says "Never start a land war in Asia!"

The rims, tires and tubes are made primarily by Coker. They're big (no pun intended) among distance unicyclists.

One of the programmers from Blurst went on a unicicyle ride from Kenya to Tanzania recently. Here's a tribesman chilling with his unicycle:
