Koxx Cranks - 135s vs 140s
Hey guys, especially those of you with koxxes, I'm split for a choice between the new 135s and the regular old 140s. Any pros and cons of the two and is it worth paying an extra 20 Euros for them? -- fluxusmaximus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fluxusmaximus's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12582 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/54819 |

Next time please describe how they hamper your performance. I would disagree and say that the 140s are pretty nice, at least the style of crank. I have the 110's and I really like them. The main point of the 135's is to make a crank that is good for crankrolls, I would agree that the aluminum cranks aren't the easiest thing to do crankrolls with but they really aren't that bad, I still prefer them to the rounded style cranks, but its a matter of personal preferance really. Apparently and I believe according to Koxx-one, the 135's are supposed to be less strong than the 140's, so if strength is a huge issue than the 140's are better. Basically it all comes down to what you enjoy having, I love short cranks so for me both are out of the question, and I really don't see myself wanting that extra room for crankrolls. -- ntappin 'how to build a strong comfy saddle from junk.'

Koxx Cranks - 135s vs 140s
Yea I heard that it's less strong but the 140s are supposed to be aluminium right? Doesn't that make them slightly weaker or am I wrong? I'd be interested to do grinds and grabs. I don't think it'd be a difference for regular hops and crankflips though... just a matter of getting used to. Is it worth the extra bucks to get 135s for the crankrolls? -- fluxusmaximus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fluxusmaximus's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12582 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/54819 |

Koxx Cranks - 135s vs 140s
I thought the major difference was one of Q-factor---the tubular cromo 135s put your pedals much wider apart than the solid aluminium ones (140, 160, whatever). How much Q-factor you want is a matter of personal taste---and may vary with intended purpose and/or riding style---, of course... -- acl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ acl's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12048 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/54819 |
