lx repair questions...need help fast!

Ok look on the back side of the crank...Its should say a 3 digit
number(probly 125 0r 127) thats the length. As for pulling them off
just go to the LBS and tell they you need a cotterless crank puller and
they will know what to give you. They can show you how to use it aswell
if you ask them nicely and if they dont then it should come with
instructions.

As for a tire any thing thats 20x2.2 or smaller width will fit the LX.

EDIT: A quick check on UDC and it says that the Torker LX 20" unicycle
has 125mm cranks on it.

I hear alot of people saying 2.2 is the biggest tire for the LX. I've
put a 2.25 on mine and had alot of clearance left.

The cranks on the LX are extremely difficult to get off.
I just took it to my LBS

I bought my replacement cranks for UDC sin the description it says that
they are the ones for a Torker LX

Oh...you have the 24"...yes the tire size would be the same but the
cranks would be different length. Sorry i thought you had the 20"

And ice_cold. It would be chaeper for him to buy his own crank puller
that he would have forever and whenever he needed it.

EDIT: 'Heres the ones you need...probly the 150s for a 24\" if you want
the same ones as before'

'this' (http://tinyurl.com/28ldn) is what you need. it will pull any
crank. (although i'm curious as to whether it will work on splined
cranks)

Cotterless cranks all all the same size at the hub. In other words,
interchangeable. 125 is a good length for cruising on a 24", but a
little short for offroad. You said you didn't want an offroad tire
though. 150 is probably too long for most non-dirt activities. How
about 140? I used to have a 24" with those, for basketball and the
Obstacle Course. My other 24" had 125s for racing. Measure your old
cranks center of hole to center of hole to see what size they were.

so would the 24 inch hook worm work on it in that case?

Look at the pic on Unicycle.com, then look at the clearance at the top
of the tire to the frame...A 24x2.5 hook worm would never in a amillion
years it that frame.
