Cody has a right to go and say what he wants about other unis he has
heard about or tried. I mean come on, sponsored riders have the right
to promote their unicycles the way they want. Nay-saying is aloud. It's
common like that. And you have the right to say what you want about
what they said. Let's just say if we ever meet in person put all those
fights about which uni is best behind, and ride together, yes i'll be
cliche, as friends. Then it's all good, alittle blood boiling never
hurt anyone. lol.

Profile - took a long 11 set jump no break, very slight bend. For
street the cranklength is still good (Triples, doubles, 180 doubles,
varialbackflips, all invented under those cranks).

KHU - Really good all around. I'm not one to go too big (I believe in
super tech, but the sets go upwards of 8s) Has held beautifully. I love
it. It's holding up the Ryan Aktins as well. (You got spectrum riding
right there Ryan/Myself)

Koxx - Know really nothing about these unicycles. I've seen Xav drop
with them, and what not. They look fancy, and they have a solid team.
But beginners who want to start off with an amazing uni should go for
KHU, since they might not be sure what they will go into when they're
better.

Qu-ax - I hate these unis. I had a friend have an older model. Looks
bad, feels bad whatever. If their newer model is awesome, cool. But it
wasn't their own idea. Since my friends uni was crap and was out after
the KHU. So when the KHU (or Koxx, whatever) upgraded, the Qu-ax looked
to have followed. Maybe i'm wrong, but that's the timeline I remember.
I don't like these unis.

I'm also for a brand which everyone can say off the bat (K-H-U). Koxx?
Qu-ax?

Remember everyone KHU unicycles are at bedfordunicycles.ca, or you can
call 416-729-9696. (Now there's what a sponsored rider should do! lol)

Torker - Yeah this wasn't good for me. Frames are bad. Seat post does
bend easily. No me gusta tambien.

Dustin, can you prove that the Qu-Ax is the strongest aluminium frame
around? Considering only 3 KH20 aluminium trials frames have broken
since their 2005 incarnation. (all 3 under the usage of the 2 best
trials riders in the world).




Do you know wogri? He's broken a KH frame and he got a new one.
I've "broken" my Koxx1 old cranks (the ring for the pedal was very
loose) an koxx wouldn't send me some new ones. That was after a half
year of riding with the Devil.

I know some someone whos bend Qu-Ax cranks or the hub, don't know
exactly, but i think he got ne ones.

Have you ever tried to get some broke parts replaced from Koxx unless
you're sponored?

Wow, all of this sparked from

Qu-Ax is better.



I mean, what one guy thinks.

They are all good in different ways. I personally prefer KH unicycles
because of the 'no nubs'. Then it would have to be Koxx because of the
way they look, how they feel and the specialised unicycles. Sorry but
Qu-Ax come last (sorry Lucas!), I personally don't like them because of
the nubs. I have only ridden one, and that had to little pressure in
the tyre so that might have been it.

Whatever anyone rides is cool. People are going to break things no
matter what unicycle.

Just want to add something. If all you really do is drop, you're bound
to break something. Big drops should be dead by now. They were cool in
universe 1. After that though, nothing. If you're tricking big (well
actually there aren't any tricks out there that have gone big enough to
break anything, it's just the way you are landing, therefore you're not
ready for that trick at that size)
That's the reason i'm not 180ing 10 sets. From 8-10 is a big jump, and
I don't want to break anything, so I don't do it. I'm not ready. (You
can disreguard seatposts with that though, i'm talking about frames,
hubs, rims, blah blah)

I don't think he ever actually made that drop, and also that he trashed
his unicycle attempting it.

Right?

Ok, i thought i should get in on this, not really sure where to start, i
like koxx 1, based on looks really, i dislike them because i think they
get alot of respect for products that are taken straight from koxx, I
love them for yoggi because hes quality. I think brand bashing at all
is bad, if you think there a companies products aren't upto much fine
but don't critisise too much until you've thought about how much work
goes into manufacturing any part.
And the hole thing about copying, or critisising any company for
copying i think is a bit badly thought out, because if your going to
say that then i suppose every splined unicycle copied onza who i think
were the first to come up with it, and how much variety can there be in
some parts.
The joke about me and rocco was sort of private because were good
friends with amanda, i think then coming on and then saying forrest is
the only! cool thing is a bit like you wana start some conflict which
is a bit sad!
The hole thing about Qu Ax being as strong as a torker dustin has
cleared up well.
The bragging about what riders ride for who is sort of fair enough
because I know personally i am no where near the riding calibre of
Yoggi or Xav. But Qu Ax's aim is to encourage young unicyclists with
potential to keep them into it, much like KH and Syko do with riders
but with older aswell, Hopefully it will encourage us youngens to keep
it up and maybe reach that standard soon, but also speaking from my
personal view, i know i do alot more for unicycling on the whole than
most(feel free to disagree) but i do demos in front of big crowds with
the 3rd best trials biker in europe Andrei Burton. I spend my whole
summer touring from festival to festival including surf festivals and
extreme sport festivals getting what ever riding i can do done, often
demos in front of massive crowds. So remember its not just about
ability. I think promoting your own company is great after all its part
of sponsorship, but brand bashing there is no need for!
Cody i liked your part in ill, and un like others i don't think your
too cocky but i think you've been pretty rude in this thread. So chill
out
