!!! Koxx One 2007 news !!!
gordito8me wrote: what was the point of giving a freestyle unicycle a splined hub? Isis is becoming the standard in the unicycle world. Qu-ax freestyle unicycles also have Isis hubs. The freestyle unicycle uses "light" hub and cranks and is not meant to be used for drops (it could probably hold up to drops). -- president_luke ------------------------------------------------------------------------ president_luke's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11036 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/56343 |

See how they hold up. -Shaun Johanneson "I have seen videos of people going big... It doesn't break the unicycle..." This is the sort of BS in this thread. I have abused many different unicycles, and found it hard to break many of them... However it is clear that I can take ANY unicycle you throw at me, and soon enough IT WILL BREAK. So please don't ruin these threads by making claims about x vs y because they will always turn into flame contests. OFF TOPIC. Mods need to split this thread (back to its original post) and people need to learn how to post in forums. Back on topic: Koxx is bringing new products, this is a good thing for all unicyclists as it furthers development of all brands. People break everything, 4ft+ drops will do that (even with awesome technique) even if it takes a while. However, one will find that the thing that everyone breaks is a TORKER frame. Look what you have done, now I have gone off topic also GRR. -- muzzle my videos: 'muzzle!videos' (http://youtube.com/profile?user=muzzl3) http://youtube.com/profile?user=muzzl3 my website: '!muzzle!'

What will you break? A seat stiffener? A seatpost? There is a huge difference between breaking something small and easy to fix like a seatpost, and breaking/bending hub and cranks, etc. It can almost be expected to break a stock seat or seatpost, or pedals. It is unfair to talk of a unicycles strength by those factors alone. -- forrestunifreak Sometimes the straightest path is through the mud.

Lucas1wheel wrote: 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 L8az boys n girls Ah I dindnt try to come off that way, but I have been expresing opinions, and thanks bout the Ill statement, allthought I kinda liked yours seg better:-D Ok about opinions...In my mind the reason I went to koxx for a sponsorship was because I like there unis the most, simple...The 2 best brans are K1 and KH. Light and strong, But they do also cost more. Torker and Qu-ax to me have allways seemed to be on the same page. I have never really ridin a Qu-ax, only herd poor reviews from friends. Torker I like becuase of price, and it is quite strong, but still not as strong as koxx, or perhaps the new Kh unis. Downside to qu-ax is weight and crank design (the blood nubs) and its still using the old style (big saddle). Torker, same downsides and same upside, price and strength. Kh downside, seat posts are hte main one, plus side VERY light! k1 downside, rims, as my friend annoyingly tells me everyday, they use a softer metal for there rims, but ive had good luck with them once being tightened. There seat posts are also aluminum but they have produced 2 different styles of reinforced seat posts to help fix this. Kh and K1 are top class. qu-ax and torker are second..sry. But they cost less and will holp up to pro level, they jsut arent as high quality. But this is all a matter of opinion from me and is very open to arguements ;-) -- Unicaw89 CODY [/b]FREAKING[b] WILLIAMS 'Koxx-Breaker!!! -----its a vid, click it ' (http://tinyurl.com/yjjht3) 'RenegadeJuggling.com ' (renegadejuggling.com)'Koxx-one.com' (koxx-one.com) abbabibble wrote: Cody bent his koxx. he was working it pretty hard.

It is unfair to talk of a unicycles strength by those factors alone. Yes, seatposts, seats, handles, spokes, rims, cranks, hubs, clamps, pedals, innertubes, frames, ankles, feet, legs... We can break them all. And that was the point I was trying to put accross - we can break everything, does not mean that it is weak or strong. -- muzzle my videos: 'muzzle!videos' (http://youtube.com/profile?user=muzzl3) http://youtube.com/profile?user=muzzl3 my website: '!muzzle!'

i don't think K1 have any nubs... i don't think they ever did. if you login to their website and look at the pics you can see .... no nubs. cheers bry P.S isn't a little mean that after yoggi anouced a whole bunch of changes to the koxx line that this thread turns into a koxx bash thread. if everyone keeps doing stuff like this i doubt any manufactorers are going to post on unicyclist.com -- vicuniclub ------------------------------------------------------------------------ vicuniclub's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10052 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/56343 |
