Where are you? UDC US hasn't had the cross Qu-Ax for quite a while.
They still have it in the UK though.

The nimbus w/ the rounded crown frame is a tiny bit lighter but harder
to do feet on frame tricks.

Unless you're talking about that orange Nimbus both of those unis have
cotterless hubs and you'll eventually bend the cranks and break the
hub, even faster if you do drops much over a foot. They may last a bit
longer if you are verry light.

My oppinion? Continue to save your money for a Nimbus Hopley, Onza,
Koxx One, or KH

Edit: if you live in Europe I'd add the alluminum Qu-Ax to that list

Here is a 'review of the cross'
(http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=56296). Hopefully it
can help in your choice.
