Nimbus II 20" Freestyle Question
Any freestyle uni will break after a period of time if you repeatedly do drops of that height on it. If you want to do trials you need a trials unicycle, and make do with it for riding freestyle, or get a seperate freestyle uni. Any trials uni except the nimbus trials on UDC Au will withstand heavy use. -- kington99 Dave - what a thoroughly post-modern subversion of the cycling genre - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kington99's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9417 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/62094 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

Nimbus II 20" Freestyle Question
I wouldnt do many drop on your freestlye uni. You WILL bend the cranks or hub. The Torker DX, Qu-Ax, Koxx, KH and the Nimbus street uni will all be great unis. If I was you, Id go for the Nimbus Street uni. For $390, you get such a great uni. '4 of the unis I mentioned are on this page. Check them out.'

Nimbus II 20" Freestyle Question
It sounds like you might want to consider a Nimbus street. It is a strong unicycle suitable for both trials and freestyle use. (Although many freestyle tricks work better with a narrow tyre run at high pressure). http://tinyurl.com/26ekoq Unfortunately for down under customers, both Unicycle.com NZ and Australia are out of stock until the next shipment arrives. If you want to consider a Nimbus Street, give the guys at UDC Australia an email and see if they can let you know an ETA on them being back in stock. I estimate it will be probably about 6 weeks minimum. -- peter.bier -Peter Bier ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peter.bier's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/1506 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/62094 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

Nimbus II 20" Freestyle Question
yeh but that frame is to weak from trials coz ill probably give up street later on and do more heavy trials so i think ill just get the qu ax. Even though its 200 more it will last me longer and i wont need to upgrade for years if i get it. -- brendonv Skaters and Bikers are just jealous that there not skilled enoughto ride with one wheel Add me on myspace: www.myspace.com/brendon_09 Add me on Aim: brendonv101 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ brendonv's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15136 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/62094 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com
