The K1 hub is bigger than true ISIS. So my Qu-ax CrMO cranks dont slide on all they way, they stay further out on the axle. I dont really recomend this to anyone, as it may not be the strongest setup... works for me tho, and it makes for tons of room to put your feet on. -- agentQ *)--SmallSpin-'O,* *)---TreFlip-'O, 'Uneed Films' (http://www.uneedfilms.com) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agentQ's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13021 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/68129 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I don't think that they suck for rolling wraps and that stuff, but they are definitely less comfortable and stable than the KH/Onzas and K1 street cranks. -- mornish aim:kiloornish email: mornish at gmail dot com msn: mornish at gmail dot com 'facebook' (http://hs.facebook.com/profile.php?id=681695483) Brian O wrote: You rode around naked on a unicycle in your basement?

I could be as wrong as ever right now, so would someone please correct me if I am extremely off.

I basically had the same question a little while back and got some great feedback. I've almost got my uni built up and I'm just waiting on the tire and pedals. This is what I did. Nimbus X frame Nimbus DJ rim 36H Nimbus ISIS hub Black 14g spokes Qu-Ax crmo 125 cranks I'm using a steel post and a nimbus saddle with CF seatbase. Still waiting on. 20x2.25 Fly Rueben kevlar folding tire Eastern plastic pedals. Initial impressions: I put some cheap pedals on it, I had lying around and a 20x2.125 Bmx knobby tire. So far I really like it and I'm sure I'll like it even more with the smooth light tire. I really like the rim (it's HUGE) and the feel of the cranks. It's exactly as AgentQ said, smooth fast and less forgiving of technique. I definately will not completely replace my 19in setup. I think it gives a uni with a different feel that is funner in some ways, but the trials tire is still nice for other things. I'll post pics when I get the tire and pedals on. -- Loch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Loch's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15711 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/68129 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I think you'd want the longneck frame. Besides, the Black widow has cotterless cranks. The DJ rim is available in 36 spoke. http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=1148 -- skilewis74 Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere.

...and the wheel TA was for the Qu-Ax Penny-Farthing. The only real unicycling tires that I can think of are the Nightrider, Coker XLR (when it comes out), and the smaller sized Qu-Ax freestyle tires. -- zfreak220 agentQ wrote: Don't quote me on that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ zfreak220's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11948 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/68129 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
