The nimbus trials is not a very strong uni, but since you are probably
pretty light, it should las a little while. After a few months you
will likely break the cranks and hub. By then you should have saved up
enough money for a splined hub, so get a KH Moment crankset. Then you
will have a reasonably light trials/street uni.

The Nimbus street frame is lighter and a bit better for foot on frame
tricks, but the frame is not as strong.

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.
Parafrasing a pro skater when asked for advise to kids who wanted to
get much better and maybee turn pro one day.

The nimbus II does come with a splined crankset now (at least in the
ISIS version not the freestyle version). So no worries about strength.
