Default Which KH 08 Trials? Long-neck? Double-crown?


Hi All,

I've been riding uni for about a year now and I'm planning to get my
first trials uni as soon as the KH 08's are available in the US. I
sure wasn't expecting there to be three models to choose from!

As a reminder, the choices a
1. Single-crown, regular length-neck (same as 07 KH trials)
2. Single-crown, long-neck (but otherwise same as above)
3. Double crown, long-neck.

I realize that I probably can't go too wrong with any of these. I want
to be ready to put in an order as soon as they're available. If you
could choose any one of these (assuming they cost the same), what would
you choose and why? FYI, I'm 5'10".

- Mark

It's not the same, the tubing is thicker and it's made stronger at the
crown. Also, the tire clearence is lowered.

I would get the standar KH 08 frame of the longneck.

The doublecrown would get in your way while doing tricks or while
tucking in trial.
