Does UDC still have the Onza tire?
This is probably a stupid question, but their site only features the Creepy Crawler as the standard replacement tire. What's funny is that the tire in the picture is the Luna trials. Anyways, I ordered an Onza through my bikeshop that should come in in a day or two, and when I checked on my order they said everything went through fine. They've called my house before when they said uni(dot)com couldn't get me what I wanted. Hope I don't get a surprise. I always thought that the Maxxis tire was second-rate for unicycles because of the thin sidewalls. Am I wrong?

If that is the case then send it back, that should never happen with a tire. I have the Maxxis Creepy Crawler and personally I am happy with it. The sidewalls while not as stiff as the Monty Black wall tire are still fairly stiff and the compound of the tire is extremely grippy. This does cause the tire to wear down a bit faster than the Luna or Monty. Overall I deffenatlly prefer it to the Monty Whiteline or the Luna as I love the way the tire rebound feels on sidehops. Personally I want to try Monty's new yellow line tires (I dont know their official name) as well as the dual compound Onza -- Checkernuts - Breakdancer Extraordinar No one said it was gonna be easy and I'm not afraid to try, with the odds stacked up against me I will have to fight, One Life One Wheel got to do it right.

Does UDC still have the Onza tire?
I like the creepy crawler. It has good grip and wears well. I've ridden it a ton on my new onza trials and it still has the little grippies on each tred. I expected it to be a softer rubber and wear faster. It does fold a bit when I do side hops over two feet. But I think that's from low tube pressure. -- halfbike - Obsessed Rider Your mom goes to college... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ halfbike's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9428 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42373 |

I have a maxxis, no pics, as it's not doing anything funny? It's wearing down alright, but just give it a little twist and use a new bit (the bottom was completely worn down), I used to have a luna and I thought it was pretty sucky, the maxxis has way better grip, I'd advise it to anyone. I always thought the luna was second-rate... -- DustinMichels - What could possibly go wrong? -Clink! Screw! Bend! Inflate!
