The cranks won't come loose on really long rides? Otherwise, yeah, the
splines seem a bit overkill for the kind of riding a 29er is made for.

Having something reliable that you can trust the cranks won't come
loose during a ride is a really really really big plus. When riding XC
it is possible to ride a 29er hard enough and aggressive enough that
standard square taper cranks and hubs are a liability. A strong hub
and splined cranks make prefect sense on a KH 29er that gets used for
XC riding.

I am totaly going to get a splined hub on my next 29", I would get on
for my coker if they made them wide enough, I guess if you ride
unicycles "like your supposed to" the splined hub would have never been
neccesary in the first place.

But as far as the deal online goes, another guy I know just ordered it
from Germany and had it shipped to the US because it was cheeper then
unicycle.com, so if your looking for a deal I don't think you'll find
another.

I'd second the Bedford recommendation. I have one of these exact cycles
from there and it rocks.

Yo - yous needs a splined hub on a 29er if your going to do this with
it. That's a Profile w/190mm cranks. KH 29 rim, WTB Exiwolf tire, see
if (ride it if you're nice to me) at Moab.

In theory, there is no difference between Theory and Practice.

In practice, there is.
