  1. I am super low on cash and I need somthing to ride. I'm down to just a
    bc wheel. I tocoed the rim and killed the hub as well as the cranks on
    my modified Torker LX uni. I'm looking at the nimbus trials uni or the
    bedford light trials but what the hell is light trials what will it
    take. I want to be able to do atleast 5' drops. Please I need help.

  2. light trials don't have a splined hub. get the 05" torker dx. You can
    get one cheaper then the none splined nimbus. If I remember right they
    are like $175 and have a splined hub and crank set

  7. Ok I found a 2005 dx for $189 with free shipping WOOT. But is it worth
    spending a little extra for the 2006 model. I only weigh about 100
    pounds. And there is this 5 foot loafing dock near by thats driving me
    crazy.

    dealer for qu-ax. Those are pretty good by the sounds of it.

  19. Look at www.bedfordunicycles.ca. Darren Bedford is an awesome guy. He
    can do custom stuff. He'll build exactly what you're looking for if he
    doesn't have it listed.

    Email him or call him.

  20. At the bottom of this page:
    http://www.cyclesportandfitness.com/unicycles.htm

    You can buy a new '05 Torker DX. These are just as strong as the new
    ones, just without the red on the frame/seat.

    It will withstand a LOT, and at $189.99 + FREE shipping, it's a steal.
