Hey i have a DX if everyone doesnt already kno. I cannot do a crankflip
on it, it is sooo heavy, i was wondering wht are the heavy parts of the
Dx, tht i could replace to make it a lot lighter in a reasonable
price.
Right now i learn and pretty much converted back to doing everything on
my super light crome unicycle.

It's probably not the weight thats not allowing you to do crankflips.
Just practice, you'll get it. My friend has a DX and does crankflips no
problem.

uhm
i find it about 20 times EASIER to make the wheel flip on my DX. Other
than that, go do a 10 foot drop just to break it in... lol

Trust me, its not the weight thats keeping you from landing them, keep
practicing. Relative to other unis it might be a bit heavier but in the
big picture its only by a pound or two and that really isn't much
weight.

I have done crankflips on a dx, I didn't notice much difference. I doubt
the dx will hold you back from doing anything because of its weight
(other than really fast tricks), it just might require more effort than
on a light uni.

flip at all it comes out way in front.
