    I want to get a KH uni but I don't know whether to get the Trials or
    street.

    The only difference that there seems to be is a difference in the
    length of the cranks by 12mm.

    I am not exactly what type of riding I will want to do. I want
    something that I can try to jump on and off thing on (which I can't
    really do on my Nimbus 24).

    Will the extra 12mm make a large difference and does it matter which
    one I go for?

    To me having a trials unicycle sounds better than having a street one
    and I think the longer cranks will make it slightly easier to control
    but I could be wrong.

    Thanks

    get 137mm, the trials unicycle.

    they are great for street, trials, muni, and everything pretty much.

    I think you should get the 137s, if you end up doing any natural trials
    then it will be way nicer. I would much rather do street with 137s than
    natural trials with 125s.

    I am riding the 137 KH cranks and I like them for street-type stuff.

    I agree with everyone else, go 137. It really seems like the ideal all
    around length, right between 125 and 145.

    We only need one 36" rim, one that doesn't suck. A properly sized KH rim
    (like the 29er only larger) would be awesome.
