  2. If you are willing to spend $50 more there are some nimbus unis with the
    qu_ax splined hub/cranks. Look around on unicycle.com

  5. the hoppley is a 36 spoke rim ( i think ) which makes things easier if
    you break a rim or a hub or need to upgrade, becuase its easier to get
    a 36 spoke rim/him

  13. By DX32, he was referring to the rim the comes on the Torker DX, which
    is an Alex DX32, which is a very good trials rim.

  15. Ahem.

    The Qu-ax is a great trials. Really. You won't regret buying it, unless
    your one of those weenies who has to have everything perfectly light,
    etc.

    Too bad U.S. UDC doesn't have just the normal Qu-Ax trials, they
    cobbled it together with Nimbus parts. Thus more expensive for you...

  16. I bought my Qu-Ax muni in France. (:p)

    If you can get them where you live, I'd recommend Qu-Ax to people
    looking for cheap splined units. They're heavy, but unicycle weight
    can be overcome with skill.
